Books are great, they compress the lifetime knowledge of a person. But there is something even better - the advice of a successful role model.

I found that one of the most effective ways of getting more B2B client projects is to build great relationships with a few other businesses is to start by helping them for free, and proving your value. Soon enough, if you're really good at what you do, they'll be asking you to help them with a lot more things, which you can charge for. Make sure that you are being genuine and truly want to build a relationship with them and work with them. So you should handpick the entrepreneurs or businesses that you admire and would like to work with.

As you're growing a business, you may be inclined, just like I was, to reinvest any revenue into it, in the hopes of accelerating its growth. By updating your accounting regularly, you will have the data to make informed decisions. Without it, you may end up spending too much money like I did.

Clarify your value proposition with clients. Have patience and do consistent good work. Nurture your long-term relationship with clients.

Here is one of the landing pages that we created for our Beeton & Co project (www.beetonco.com). In this #DailyGrowth video, I go over the main components of the page, and the assessment behind it.

This neat little extension allows you to configure certain websites that you do not want your views and clicks to be tracked. This is especially handy when you have facebook pixels installed on your sites and don't want them to fire when you're testing out your sites.

I talk about:

- the hero and the guide

- website homepage headline and subheadline

- direct and transitional calls to action

Are your homepage's headline and sub-headline clearly communicating empathy with your audience's biggest pains and desires?

I believe that the headline and sub-headline should be focused on your customers, and not on yourself.

It should also be easy to read and understand in less than 5 seconds.
