Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. So the question I’m asking today is in these four examples, which of the legs of your business might need some strengthening? And then we'll talk about some ideas about that, right. So now back to the analogy, I’ve got the table legs underneath it, I pull one leg out the table is still okay, I haven’t touched it, I haven’t put any pressure on it, right. It’s like your business, you might have a lost leg but if there’s no external pressure, no force...

Business Legs - Part 1 Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. So if I were to put the table with four legs just like that slide,that table had four legs, okay? I would walk up, grab one leg, and pull it out. Now we have a table with three legs under it. Upon pulling out that fourth leg, what would happen to the table? (Okay, guys might wanna come off mute), yeah, it would fall--it would fall right away, not necessarily, right? So I pull out that leg; it might stay depending on how things are...

Carl Gould #70secondCEO
During Down Turns, Buyers Refer to Experts Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. Pricing is the number one way that you communicate with your clientele. As soon as you advertise your pricing, you do two things. One is you tell them who you are. I'm the premium version, I'm the mid version, I'm the economy version, and they're all good. There's buyers for all three, so you don't have to say which one's better than the other. But one thing that either, if you are among the highest...

Cut Through the Clutter Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. I eat a very plant-based diet. Whenever I go to a restaurant, I can tell if they know how to serve a vegan, basically. Are they just, did they Google it and say, okay, anything that's not this? Or do they actually know? And I can tell you a lot about the difference. You know, so if somebody's passionate about a subject or passionate about a project, product, or service, they're gonna know the...

Understand Who is Your Ideal Avatar pt 2 Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. If you were a college, if you were a university, you would look at someone like you, someone like me and say, Oh, well, they're a good candidate. They have kids or they are part of a family, or they live in a certain area or they make a certain amount of money. So they would target me. I'll just take myself. They would target me and say, Oh, that guy, Carl, we should start really marketing to him right...

Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Understand Who is Your Ideal Avatar Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. One exercise that every business owner has to do is make sure that they take a step back and understand who their ideal client avatar is, right? So if you get an ideal client, and you know what's going on in their life right now and what would trigger them to call you or accept your call right now, that's the key, right? I'll use myself as an example in just a minute. Still, we want to identify who is the...

Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of investment per day for a lifetime of results.
So, D stands for Direction. So, it’s strategic planning, mission, vision, values, purpose, and it says exit strategy there. This is, think all things big picture growth but also results, getting things done. This is an effective part of the business, not an efficient part of the business, an effective part of the business that requires you to think big and also have an end goal result. Okay? Now, one of the things that’s on here is exit strategy. So, how many of you have a fully documented exit strategy and you share it with your team? Getting close? Alright, that’s cool, no don’t be polite you can raise your hand in any order, alright? So, uh, note to self: must write exit strategy.
Now, the way we define exit strategy is, we like to use the way real estate looks at exit strategy. When you buy a piece of land or you buy a building they’ll say “What’s your exit strategy?” Well, I’m gonna subdivide it, I’m going to go from single use to multi-use, and I might still own it but it’s going to exit the form it’s in now, and it’s going to enter a new form later. Okay? So, we don’t take it literally that you’re selling and leaving. If that’s your definition for exit strategy then you can call this your evolution plan. Okay?
