Get to know your customer from an individual role and organizational role level. Learn what they care about, who they have influence over, what their business looks like, etc.
Become clear on what your business has to offer, how you will delivery it, and what the benefit of working with your business is. Then understand how money flows through your business.
Understand the characters in your customers’ stories. What/who are the villains? Who are the persons of influence? How will you help your customer become the hero?
Say no. Your time is valuable. There are somethings that need to get done right away, there are things that can wait, and there are things that just aren’t important. Learn tools that can help you identify where tasks land.
If, after putting this into practice, doing the work, and executing, you do not see your business growing in a way that excites you, I will provide two additional 25 min coaching sessions. In these sessions we will work through your course work, test methods, and iterate as necessary to get you on the right path.
