Clients come to you with an issue and it's tempting to jump right to a solution.

Don't ...

Instead, take a moment to dig deeper. Ask questions to:

⇥ Uncover what’s really going on.
⇥ Explore the bigger picture.
⇥ Clarify the result they want.
⇥ Understand the business value.

Conversation can turn smaller projects into bigger, more valuable opportunities.

For you and the client.

And you're better positioned to deliver tangible results — and earn a higher fee.

That is a proper Win-Win.

What's really going on

“ … all of us hold on tightly to many things we don’t really have.” This line from Patrick Rhone’s book - This Could Help - got me thinking about our attitudes toward pipelines, relationships, and services.

Think Different

I love it when there's a seemingly Unreasonable Agenda. The Apple Think Different campaign epitomised this. Just look at the change makers: Albert Einstein: Questioned absolute space-time. Bob Dylan: Reimagined song meanings poetically. Martin Luther King Jr.: Envisioned equality beyond segregation. Richard Branson: Ignored business conventions fearlessly.
