How To Take Action
Action Plan for Small Business or Personal Growth
Focus on One Acquisition Channel:
I would suggest starting with just one acquisition channel. Whether you're running a small business or working on personal growth, stick to one thing and do it well. For example, if social media works for you, focus all your efforts on mastering that before looking elsewhere.
Perfect and Scale:
If your business is making up to $1 million a year, continue to perfect that single channel. Don’t get distracted by trying to handle multiple channels. Instead, refine your strategies and increase your spending on that channel to get consistent results.
Diversify at the Right Time:
Once you reach $1 million a month in revenue, start thinking about diversification. Adding another channel can help you get more customers and reduce risks. But remember, only diversify when your primary channel is performing at its best.
Master Outbound Marketing:
A good way of expanding once you’ve hit significant revenue milestones ($1 million a month) is to consider outbound marketing. This helps bring in a steady stream of new customers and reduces dependency on a single channel.
Avoid Premature Diversification:
Just because you’re doing well doesn’t mean you need to rush into multiple channels. Focus on growth within your strongest area. We didn’t add outbound marketing until we reached $4 million a month. That’s a good reminder that patience and perfection in one strategy can yield significant results.
Consistent Execution:
Consistency is key. Whatever strategy you decide on, make sure to execute it diligently. This applies whether you're working on your business or personal growth. Consistent effort in one area will build a foundation for future diversification.
Focus on these steps, and you'll see meaningful progress without unnecessary complications.
