In today's fast-paced business world, streamlining operations has become increasingly important. Not only does it help save time and money, but it also allows businesses to adapt to changing market conditions and stay ahead of their competitors.

If you can’t get deals over the line, your business is not going to beat the competition and be successful in any way. A lot of people start businesses because they have a passion for the field and because they want to provide a service. The truth is that they also want to make plenty of money and sell what they are offering. Getting deals over the line is a school that comes with experience and it’s something that you can work on. At times, it’s like a fine art. Once you unlock this particular …

• We consistently post on LinkedIn and send emails weekly.

• Yes, we’re going to do some LinkedIn and Google ads. (as if it’s a la…

Why is it so hard to sway clients away from your competitors?

Well, the short answer is switching costs. But when we hear that term, we often only think about the physical or tactical aspects of change—it often leaves out the mental and emotional elements of the switching costs.

Once a client has an established relationship with a provider, it’s set up. The exchange of access, details, invoicing, and contacts are already in place. The client and vendor can just do the work. In order for this p…

This is one of the most common questions we get from clients. It’s a simple question with no straightforward answer. In other words, “it depends.”

I get it, it’s not the answer you want to hear. You would love to hear an exact number or formula that guarantees an exact ROI on every dollar spent. But that would be at best, misleading and at worse a straight-up lie.
