Activity breeds results. But laser beam focused, highly targeted, precise activity creates BREAKTHROUGH BUSINESS RESULTS.
If you are going to work hard, work smart, so that the work you put into your business delivers the output you need to support your goals and have you increasing sales faster.
1. Take a look at who you are selling and marketing to.
How can you refine your focus to create a prospect list that is most likely to buy? It is better to sell to a smaller list that is highly targeted than wasting your marketing dollars and effort throwing spaghetti at the wall. What can you do today to add one more layer to your definition of your ideal client and begin attracting individuals that are most likely to buy?
You need to create messages that cause your ideal client to say, “This is for me!” If you are too broad or generic your audience won’t be sure if what you are offering is the right fit for them and uncertainty causes hesitation.
Create one new marketing item this week with a highly targeted message and offer. Get in front of your best, most well defined group of prospects with this new added layer of clarity around who you are targeting.
2. Increase your activity.
