STEP 1: Reflecting on 2023: What Worked and What Didn't?

Take a moment to review your past marketing efforts. Evaluate activities like in-person or online presentations, event sponsorships, paid ads, social media, and podcast engagements.?

Assess the impact of each in terms of revenue, complexity, time, and overall success. This retrospective analysis will provide valuable insights to inform your strategy for the upcoming year.

Example: last year you promoted your webinar using targeted ads and organically (by leveraging your existing network and word-of-mouth).? Looking back, you realized that most of your attendees came from your organic reach as opposed to your ad spend.? Knowing this information, you will forgo the ad spend this year and focus on using organic reach for your upcoming webinars in 2024.?

STEP 2:? Adding Fuel to Success

Pinpoint the activities that had a positive impact. Was it increased revenue, reduced complexity, or enhanced service sales??

Instead of searching for new strategies, focus on amplifying these successful endeavors.?

Explore ways to add more fuel to what already works. Consider reallocating resources and energy to maximize the impact of these proven activities.

STEP 3: Reverse Engineering Revenue Goals

Rather than merely setting a revenue goal, reverse engineer the process. Break down the end goal into actionable steps.?

Ask these important questions:?

?How many clients do you need to meet your financial goals??

?What services should you offer?

? Does your pricing represent the value you provide?? Do you need to increase your fees?

In other words:

?How many services do you need to sell, and at what pricing structure, to achieve your target??

This method provides a clear and achievable path by deconstructing the goal into manageable milestones.

STEP 4: LinkedIn: A Powerhouse for Professionals

Leverage LinkedIn's features to boost your practice's visibility. Consistently post valuable content, expand your network, and optimize your profile.?

Take the time to engage with potential clients and partners through personalized messages.?

Consider utilizing features like newsletters, videos, and audio rooms to enhance your presence and connect with your audience.

STEP 5: Aligning Value and Compensation

Review your fee structure and assess whether it aligns with the value you provide.?

Consider transitioning to a flat fee model for clarity and transparency. Ensure you communicate the value of your services effectively and maintain a buffer in your pricing to accommodate additional work if needed.

STEP 6: Closing Gaps

Address gaps in your online presence, such as outdated websites or inactive social media profiles.?

Update your website, engage on social media, and create a consistent content calendar. An engaging online presence builds trust and credibility, crucial for attracting new clients.

Remember, the magic happens when we amplify what already works and infuse it with renewed energy.?

Make 2024 not just a year of goals but a year of surpassing them!
