All About Them: The Power of Relentless Relevance
Monday, July 13
There was a time when promoting yourself was enough. Credentials, features, benefits—just tell people how great you were and they’d show up. But not anymore.
The game has changed. Today, everyone carries a device in their pocket that offers instant access to infinite options and total control. Your customers don’t just want great service. They demand it. What they really want is to know what’s in it for them. That means success doesn’t come from being the loudest voice in the room. It comes from being the clearest, most relevant one.
