Hello and Welcome to the September issue of the OkayNowWhat Newsletter!

One of the messages new business owners receive over and over is to correctly "target" their future customers and to market effectively and efficiently to that target. Of course, that begs the question: How do you do that?

Maybe you tried (and likely failed) if you fell for some online solicitation that promised to teach you:  

  • How to double your mailing list in "x" easy steps
  • How to network and get "y" leads in no time at all
  • You too can work "z' hours a week and have customers knocking on your door
  • Never prospect again and get rich

The reality is that it is NOT easy to achieve if you don't understand and apply the fundamental of successful marketing: Targeting.

ONW (OKAYNOWWHAT) INSIGHTS

After over 30 years working in corporate training, sales enablement, management and having worn the hats of; corporate employee, entrepreneur, author, academic, keynote speaker, and youth sports coach and mentor, I am now adding to my roster of jobs - business coach.  While I still maintain the original businesses (www.zahnconsulting.com and www.workshop360.biz), I am now adding www.okaynowwhat.biz.  It is through this new offering that I will assist new entrepreneurs, those considering becoming entrepreneurs, and business professionals who want to rekindle the spark they once had for the work they do - but have lost their passion over time.

I want to be of service - it is through that effort that the greatest rewards can be found and shared with others.  Having seen and experienced much in my career from many different sides of business relationships, I want to share it with others and provide the learning to help others accomplish their goals.

Together, we CAN achieve great things.  Working collaboratively and meeting each challenge as it arises and overcoming it until we feel completely confident in your ability to do so without guidance.  Working with your own private cheering section to lift you up when you stumble and provide you with guardrails and a metaphorical safety harness when trying new things to expand your reach and capability.  

If you are ready, so am I!  We can do this!  Click here to get started!

If you are certain you are ready to embark on your own business launch, you can  schedule a no obligation "Chat and Chew With You" conversation to explore whether my business coaching is right for you, click here

COOL RESOURCE 

Being an entrepreneur, and especially a"Solopreneur," where you are the only employee means that every job function and role will become yours. However, you likely are not sufficiently skilled in every aspect of running a business. Additionally, where you can add value to your business' success may become limited if you are having to stumble through and correct mistakes in the areas that you are less competent in performing. There is a resource you can use for either project work, or longer-term assignments that can provide you with people capable of supporting your business at very reasonable prices. The site is, https://www.upwork.com/ and it has pages and pages of experts in skillsets as diverse as; engineering, marketing, bookkeeping, and even AI services. The site is free to join and you can choose who you work with, details of the assignment, costs, etc. as the professionals offer different pricing packages depending on your needs and the size/scope of your requirements.

Try it. You will find a treasure trove of opportunity!
