    • Top Takeaways for this Episode:
    1. Do you have a ‘sticky brand’? Look at your brand critically and ask yourself these questions:
      Would people refer me again and again?
      Am I the top choice?
      Am I remarkable?
    2. Learn how to ‘tilt the odds’. This means finding your competitive advantage. Avoid being a generalist. Find the niche or market that is your sweet spot where you can be the master to go to.
    3. Work on having simple clarity. If you can’t explain in 10 words or less what you do and how you do it, there’s a big problem.This is one of the hardest things to do that I’m still working on too!
