Episode notes
ADVICE

Use Upfront Projects To De‑Risk

  • Use an upfront project to de-risk a client and prove value before ongoing work.
  • Charge more thereafter because perceived risk drops and willingness to pay rises.
INSIGHT

Niche Pains Convert Easier

  • Rare, specific pains are easier to sell than broad advisory services.
  • Solve a narrow compliance or onboarding pain and you'll attract the right clients faster.
ADVICE

Sell Clear ROI, Not Commoditized Work

  • Tie services to explicit ROI or money/time saved to escape commoditization.
  • Sell solutions that eliminate costs or bottlenecks, not just required compliance.
