How to Attract the Right Customer and Repel the Wrong One

We have all heard the expression, ‘you are your biggest asset.’ So why do so many of us feel reluctant to let our personality shine in business? Maybe it’s because we don’t know how. Or worse, we fear showing too much of ourselves will alienate potential clients or customers. Surprise! It’s actually the opposite. People are hungry for personality. That’s what drives connection. 

Crafting Your Brand and Elevator Speech

Your brand and elevator speech define who you are as a company, where you stand in the market, what you do, who you serve, where you’re going in the future, and — most importantly — helps establish lasting relationships with your customers. 

Crafting Your Elevator Pitch Using PitchPower ®

Learn to create a clear, succinct elevator pitch that tells people who need you, how to find you. When you connect from your heart and passion, you'll feel confident to market, become visible to your audience, and get the right referrals.

Having a great elevator pitch is only the FIRST step to building relationships and landing new clients. Knowing how to tell a compelling STORY that demonstrates the validity of your pitch, will help create the intrigue that keeps your prospects asking for more!

Better idea? Start fishing where your fish are…and you’re sure to get a catch.

What’s the secret sauce for launching or maintaining a thriving consulting business? An obvious answer is meeting or exceeding your clients’ expectations. But how do you do that? And what if some of your clients are needy or overbearing? How do you manage the client–customer relationship in those cases?
