• 01:44 - Daisy’s ideal client: For our small business program here at Blender, it's a solopreneur startup or small business that's under a million in revenue. 

• 02:12 - The problem she helps solve: I really solve two problems. Number one is helping businesses get in front of more potential customers. And number two is helping them get more of those people to say "yes" to their offer. 

• 02:32 - The symptoms of the problem: They're always struggling to hit revenue goals. Usually, they're trying tactics kind of piecemeal and hoping that something is going to work.

• 03:20 - Clients’ common mistakes before consulting Daisy: The most common mistakes are around the assumptions they're making about how marketing works. So half of them think marketing is a mystery. And they just have to try things and hope something's going to work.

• 04:26 - Daisy’s Valuable Free Action (VFA): I'd like to share a prioritization framework for this one. So number one, you have to be aiming at the right problem. So it's visibility or getting enough traffic to the site or getting people to take the next step.
