Simplicity
|
It's not about what YOU think/see/feel is simple. It's about what your customers think/see/feel is simple for them (or not). They don't know the ins and outs. They don't know better. They do know better, though, their day-to-day. They're experts at that. A "simple" system for them might not be something that's simple for you. Take "my old tax booking system is simple"... until they know how simple other things can be. Because simplicity —or complexity— has not everything to do with the use, but with their transaction and emotional costs. With how much effort they might need to put on, instead of going with the flow of the known. Next time you hear "I want something simple", ask what they mean by simple. You'll be surprised. And they'll make the sale for you. |

A business. A very broad description of what they do. To try to grab the most opportunity, and from there get the foot in the door. - Who's your type of customer? - Anyone with money. [aka. Anyone with a heartbeat.] - What you do? Bring solutions. Creative. Collaborative. Team players. Strategic (whatever that means). A partner. More of what you can find in the market. Totally exchangeable with zero effort. One more in a sea of many. Just think of it. Which of the competitors would go and say...

Today's daily gets to ask what's that you write/publish on? You're different from your competitors. What makes you different? Do your customers and your prospects know what makes YOU different?
