Stop planning. Start acting. Here are five strategies you can implement this week.
1. Pick Up the Phone
Direct client outreach is priority. Make daily calls with specific goals.
Ask questions like:
- “What are your plans for Q3?”
- “What challenges have you faced?”
Focus on understanding client needs and proposing relevant solutions. Stop being a passive order-taker.
2. Update Your Website
Audit your web presence. Many businesses don’t showcase all services offered.
Add one underrepresented service with new content weekly. Results build gradually through organic search rankings, but you have to start.
3. Market the New Service
Simply adding services isn’t enough. Actively promote them:
- Mention services during sales calls
- Create sales documents for email signatures
- Share social content
- Develop case studies and social proof
Services don’t sell themselves.
4. Complete a Time Audit
Business leaders often hold unproductive tasks.
Identify time-wasters through auditing. This reveals delegation opportunities and clarifies what requires your priority attention.
What are you doing that someone else could do?
5. Get Out of Your Comfort Zone
A client once told me they valued my approach because I was authentic.
Create content, whether social posts, podcasts, or videos. Inactivity allows competitors to gain ground while you stay invisible.
The Bottom Line
These represent choices supporting business ambitions.
Consistency proves difficult. But taking action produces results.
Inaction guarantees none.
