Going out on your own: Pursuing the Passion 47 & 48
March 11th, 2010#47: Listen (and really listen)
Listen to your clients, be proactive, give them a call, find out their issues, problems, even if it’s not related to you. This is where your networking can pay off you may know someone that could help them, or a blog post you have read that could.
#48: Don’t pretend
Be yourself, let your business reflect that, you are attractive, maybe not to everyone, but to a big enough group to build a business off.
And that’s it! Well from me anyway.
I wrote this about a year ago one night, when I thought what would I tell someone starting where I started, I hope it’s been of value to you. ย If you’d like to read the full thread go here.
Starting out is always tough, it’s not hard though (as millions of other people have gone through exactly the same process) so most of all be prepared to listen, swallow your pride and learn. ย I’d rather you became a stellar success than quitting as you weren’t prepared to adapt.
I may turn this into an ebook or short book at some stage (who knows) but if you’ve anything to add or wanted to ask me a question about any of it just send me an email to [email protected] – let me know how I can help.
