Today's marketing lesson requires you to be able to use your phone so if you can listen to this episode on a computer it is helpful. It's a brief lesson - but a very important one!
If a business owner has a brick-n-mortar when visited by a customer they get to have a personal impact on how that individual sees and experiences their business.
You achieve this impact by communication.
But, what if you aren't there to have that impact?
What if they are experiencing your business alone, without your presence or impact on how they see it?
This is what happens when someone visits your website.

2:04 Can You Remove Your Ego from Your Business? - Do you have the ability to completely remove your business owner hat and walk in your customer's shoes? Let go of what you THINK people want and see and instead really grasp their perspective? It sounds like an easy thing but it is certainly not. When was the last time you did that OR have you ever? Over the years I have learned one huge flaw with many business owners is sometimes they get hung up on details that have very little impact on the business at all - this is when your ego is getting a little too involved in your business. Remember, it's not about YOU.
