Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.
Small businesses you only need 10, 20, 30 customers, right? As you grow, you might have a couple of hundred customers, but you want a thousand people that are paying attention to you. That's not that hard. You can do that through social media, through inbound marketing, through your website, through cold calling, through doing seminars, through doing webinars by personal networking. You can reach a thousand people. If you're a small business owner and you're a consultant, an accountant or a mechanic. If you're a physical location put a pin on the map draw a circle and say can I reach a thousand people in that circle? If you're on Facebook, right for example or LinkedIn or another social media platform do a profile of who your customer is and it'll give you this great list and you're going to say hmm. Can I reach a thousand of those people? Because if I can reach a thousand and if I can capture their attention, then I can certainly get 5, 10, 20 or 30 people that will buy my product or service on a regular basis.
