1 Diversify Clients

Diversifying your client base is like not putting all your eggs in one basket. This strategy helps mitigate the risk of income loss if a client relationship ends unexpectedly. Strive to maintain a mix of long-term contracts and short-term projects across various industries. By doing so, you create multiple income streams that can compensate for each other, ensuring that your cash flow remains stable even if one sector experiences a downturn.

If you work solely with clients in the retail banking sector, an economic downturn might reduce consumer spending and borrowing, impacting your business. However, if you also have clients in investment banking or corporate banking, these areas might be less affected or even benefit from increased activity during economic fluctuations. ? Counter: You might argue that specializing in retail banking allows you to develop deeper insights and more effective strategies to help clients navigate economic downturns, thus reinforcing your value proposition.

Tener una segmentación de clientes, no haciendo foco en un solo tipo de cuenta, te permite llegar a más público, a tener menos concentracion de ventas en un producto y a no depender en exceso de cuentas muy grandes.

Kundendiversifizierung ist eine strategische Ma?nahme, die darauf abzielt, das Kundenportfolio eines Unternehmens zu erweitern, um Risiken zu minimieren und Wachstumschancen zu maximieren. Durch die Akquise neuer Kunden aus verschiedenen Branchen, Regionen oder demografischen Segmenten kann ein Unternehmen seine Abh?ngigkeit von einzelnen gro?en Kunden verringern und die Resilienz gegenüber Marktschwankungen erh?hen. Dies erm?glicht eine stabilere Einnahmenbasis und f?rdert nachhaltiges Wachstum. Die Diversifizierung erfordert jedoch eine sorgf?ltige Marktanalyse und angepasste Marketingstrategien, um die spezifischen Bedürfnisse und Erwartungen der neuen Zielgruppen zu erfüllen.

Sin importar el tipo de negocio en que te encuentres, tu red o contactos es lo que te permite mantenerte activo. La diversificación de clientes y de canales te ayudará a no depender de uno o varios clientes. Mucho mejor si en esta diversificación incorporas desarrollos de productos o servicios con valor agregado que te protejan de ataques de la competencia.

La forma mas eficaz de ejecutar procesos en marcando unos objetivos realizables a corto plazo y a largo plazo. Esto es válido para cualquier proceso de venta y te permite alinearlo por ejemplo con una compensacion laboral por bonus motivante.

Set clear goals and I can’t stress this enough.If you don’t know what you want to achieve,don’t take actions accordingly and you are not doing everything with intention then you only get frustrated. So: setting clear goals and then action,action,action! This is what works for me!

Ein klares Ziel zu setzen ist entscheidend für den pers?nlichen und beruflichen Erfolg. Es erm?glicht eine fokussierte Ausrichtung und gibt die Richtung vor, in die man sich entwickeln m?chte. Ziele schaffen Motivation und geben einen Ma?stab für Fortschritt und Erfolg. Sie helfen, Ressourcen effizient zu nutzen und Priorit?ten richtig zu setzen. Ein klar definiertes Ziel f?rdert die Selbstdisziplin und hilft, Ablenkungen zu minimieren. Es ist wichtig, Ziele spezifisch, messbar, erreichbar, relevant und zeitgebunden (SMART) zu formulieren, um die besten Ergebnisse zu erzielen. Letztlich führt das Setzen klarer Ziele zu einer h?heren Zufriedenheit und einem gr??eren Gefühl der Erfüllung.

3 Price Smartly

Pricing your services smartly is a balancing act between what the market will bear and the value you provide. Research industry standards, but also consider your unique skills and experience. Don't undersell yourself, as this can lead to burnout and financial strain. Instead, price your services competitively to attract clients while ensuring you're compensated fairly for your expertise.

En el mundo de los negocios, determinar el precio adecuado para tus servicios es toda una habilidad que requiere equilibrio entre lo que el mercado está dispuesto a pagar y el valor que tú aportas. Es importante investigar los estándares de la industria y la competencia, pero no subestimes tus habilidades y experiencia. Definir tu valor y tu público objetivo son dos de las claves para el éxito en la definición del precio. Así mismo te recomiendo no tener miedo en la negociación, sé flexible y prepárate para tener una contraoferta que les permita a las partes ganar.

El precio de los productos lo marca la demanda y la tendencia de moda; en sectores muy afectados por la moda fijar un precio muy bajo reduce el deseo de marca y las necesidades aspiracionales de ese producto. Todo depende del sector y el producto objetivo y los competidores.

Clevere Bepreisung, auch bekannt als dynamische Preisgestaltung, ist eine Strategie, bei der Unternehmen Preise flexibel anpassen, um Marktbedingungen und Nachfrage in Echtzeit zu berücksichtigen. Diese Methode nutzt Datenanalyse und Algorithmen, um optimale Preise festzulegen, die den Umsatz maximieren und gleichzeitig den Kundennutzen erhalten. Unternehmen k?nnen so auf Markttrends und Wettbewerb reagieren, indem sie Preise variieren, basierend auf Faktoren wie Verkaufsvolumen, Jahreszeit, Wetterbedingungen und Kundenverhalten. Die clevere Bepreisung hilft Unternehmen, ihre Gewinne zu steigern, w?hrend sie den Kunden wettbewerbsf?hige und faire Preise bieten.

Organizar tu sistema en función de tus gastos y principalmente de la entrada de ingresos es básico para subsistir y crecer. En los entornos freelance, adaptar tus calendarios de compras/gastos mas destacados a las previsiones de pagos por tus servicios y mantener un colchon de seguridad de al menos un a?o de circulante te permitiría no poner en riesgo tus finanzas.

6 Plan for Taxes

As a freelancer, you're responsible for your own taxes, which can be a significant financial burden if not planned for properly. Set aside a percentage of each payment for tax obligations. Consider working with an accountant or using accounting software to keep track of your finances and prepare for tax season. Being proactive with tax planning prevents last-minute scrambling and ensures you meet your legal obligations without impacting your financial security.

In my experience, it all starts with developing a business plan. I'm a fan of the Why/Why You/Why now methodology that I learned during my IBM days. Plan your 30-60-90, and focus on a land/expand model and seed the market with your expertise. The bottom line is that regardless if you are freelance or work for a big company, it's a numbers game. Determine the income you want, and plan against that.

En mi experiencia definir el objetivo y el cómo conseguirlas te permitirá alcanzar el éxito de lo que emprendas. Ahora bien, el objetivo y el cómo no serán suficientes sin tu trabajo diario y constante.
