Thinking that clearer positioning may bring in business.

Thinking that clearer positioning may bring in business.
Or perhaps posting here for visibility is the key?

Maybe. Maybe not.

Here’s what top performers actually do:

- Set aside dedicated time for business development.
- Build and nurture a strong network of clients and prospects.
- Identify client’s unspoken needs and untapped profit opportunities.

In short, they connect with purpose, consistently reminding their network why they matter, showing up and adding value.

Positioning with clarity feels good.
It can help you get through the door.
But it doesn’t create deals on its own.

Real-world conversations do if they focus on a client’s:

- Urgent and complex challenges.
- Relevant and important opportunities.
- Advantages they can offer their customers.

Executives don’t care too much about you, they care about their own issues.

So, where will you focus next week?

Front Stage: engaging with clients on the issues that matter to them.
Back Stage: staying safe in a conference room, crafting your proposition - again.

It’s a choice.

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.
