This episode explains what the conversation entails, why it’s vital to your company, and how to fix it. ----- Key Links Sign-up for your FREE COPY of Exit Mindset (Releasing soon!) http://exitmindset.com/ ----- What is the conversation? It’s every bit of verbal and non-verbal communication between your company and your consumer. What your consumer sees/hears/feels will affect how they think about and interact with you. You can purposefully affect the conversation. Think Like a Buyer The Exit Mindset gives you this lens. Create an optimal business model by examining all company/consumer interactions from the outside. What does your conversation say about your company? Incongruency Kills Businesses If potential buyers see incongruencies, they will lower your valuation. Incongruency between your product and your conversation means less profit and lost customers. Dissect your business so you can position it exactly where your consumer needs it to be. It’s All About the Consumer You can’t please every consumer, so focus on yours. If you tailor your conversation to your consumer base, they will automatically trust your company more. Issues with Your Conversation The two most significant issues with conversations are missing parts or having the wrong conversation. If you don’t know the difference, you can’t fix the issues. Once you know, you can focus on them and position your company more effectively. See it Through to the End Your conversation has to be consistent throughout your consumer’s experience. One incongruency can lose you a customer. Buyers will see your company the same way, and measure its worth on the congruency of its conversation. You have to create a feedback loop and continually improve to craft the optimal business model and earn the highest valuation.

This episode explains what your infrastructure entails, why it’s vital to your company, and how to fix it. ----- Key Links Sign-up for your FREE COPY of Exit Mindset (Releasing soon!) http://exitmindset.com/ ----- What is Infrastructure? The parts of your company that create, deliver, and support your product. The product is king, and infrastructure is its kingdom. It impacts your company’s efficiency, profits, and work-life balance. Thinking Like a Buyer Look at your company the way a potential buyer would. Every flaw in the company impacts valuation. Poor infrastructure will either scare them off or significantly lower your valuation. Buyers can pay you a fraction, fix the issues they see, and reap the benefits. It’s your job to optimize your company. Fixing Your Infrastructure Most infrastructure issues stem from a lack of planning. A thriving company requires a combination of optimized plans and resources. Make a Plan Plans will not be perfect, so you have to adapt. Don’t get discouraged! Learn from the mistakes of each plan, and move forward every time. Break it Down Analyze your company from the top down. Break your company down into units. Focus on the objectives of each unit, rather than individuals within it. What steps will lead you to your objective? Are those steps efficient? You Have Help Ask your team how the system can be improved. Be an active listener. No one knows the system better than those inside it. Start Small Significant changes begin with small steps. The solution isn’t a one-and-done. If you can solve small problems fir

Products can be improved upon and will have an increased value in up-and-coming markets. Does your product have future value? Innovative Products Rule the Market Innovation is seeing a solution no one else has yet. You don’t have to reinvent the wheel. Combining and/or modifying existing products or services is an option. What is Your Product? Physical, service, or hybrid? The core of your company. Understand, evaluate, and analyze your product before moving forward. How to Innovate Start simple, be curious, and ask questions. How can your product be improved? Where will it be in the future? What hole in the market can you fill? Start-ups can topple Fortune 500 companies if they’re innovative. Always be improving. Make the Change Don’t settle for being average. Don’t be swept aside by others’ innovation, lead the way.
