✨ What if your creative business were so different…There were no other choices?

Let that sink in. 👀

Why does this matter? Because right now...
❌ Clients are stalling.
❌ Budgets are shrinking.
❌ Loyalty is gone.
❌ Spec work is back.

And you? 😩 You're juggling overhead, low margins, and working too hard to land new clients.

And if you're thinking: “How do I pivot?” You're not alone.

🚨 Here's the deal:
Clients don’t feel traditional agencies are meeting their needs anymore.
They’re building in-house teams or looking for lean, fast, high-impact partners.

⚡ But here’s the good news: It’s not about working harder. It’s about working differently.

🎯 Is it time to evolve?

Not just a new offer.

A new business model.

After spending countless hours on proposals that didn’t convert ☹️ I finally discovered the key to success ☺️.

Remembeer this? I Pulled this out of the archives yesterday. I put together this workbook in 2011 to help small businesses get clear about their USP and how to stand out. I went through it yesterday and everything in there still holds today. It’s even more noisy out there, and very few products or services stand out. I’ve made this available as a digital download. If you’d like to learn how to interview your key stakeholders for strategic insights, if you’d like to learn how to do brand strategy and offer it as a service or if you’d like to get clarity on your target audience there are exercises here that are super helpful.

Know Your Difference was birthed in 2010. It was about branding, differentiation and standing out when everyone else blends in. It became a book and an online course and attracted dozens of clients who wanted to do a better job at standing out. It took me speaking around the world. Somehow, I got sidetracked, and I let it fizzle out a few years ago. I had a recent epiphany that knowing your difference is more important than ever, and it’s not about saying you're different... it’s about truly being different in every way. So here we go... know your difference 2.0. Check out the new website. It’s pretty bold. It took a while, but I think I finally know my difference!

Hello, I'm back! I haven't been here for a while but I have some new things to talk to you about. It seems like since the pandemic started everything on Linkedin became about selling. "Hey try my service, you'll love it" from people who don't even know me. It's the worst way to make the right connections. I was wondering if there was a better way and I found one. We'll start in January with a class to upgrade your profile and then in February, a class about how to connect on LinkedIn in a different way that's not awkward or salsey. I can connect with just about anybody and they want to talk to me. Here's the link with the details for both. https://lnkd.in/g5RueAu9

Firstly, I hope you and your family are doing well. These are times of uncertainty and I know that you are worried. The lockdowns are negatively impacting so many sectors and I know that many of you are struggling with a host of issues including clients putting projects on hold. On April 8th, I’m interviewing Preston Lee, Founder of The Millo Blog and Solid Gigs.

Preston is a great case study of someone who evolved his freelance business to include several other revenue streams. After some time the other revenue streams became the core business! Preston will share his story, his biggest learnings and a step-by-step process to help you rethink your business model and get out of the feast or famine cycle.

Would you like to know what your clients really need from you right now?

I'm sure like me you've been getting an email every 5 seconds from another organization saying "We're here for you". They are all basically saying the same thing and I've stopped reading most of them.

But here's the thing...

Communication is more important than ever right now and there is not a lot of good communication happening. Everybody knows they are supposed to wash their hands and do social distancing, but your clients are not coming up with original or meaningful things to say. You are the idea person and your clients need ideas!

On my webinar yesterday, I shared a bunch of Ideas about how you can authentically help your clients right now. Here's a link to the recording and a bunch of other free stuff that will help you right now. https://lnkd.in/ewFqMYp
