If you struggle with finding clients, getting referrals, and communicating the value of your services, you most likely need help with your positioning.  That’s what $ix Figures Lab member Jennifer Edwards needed help with, too.  I first connected with Jennifer on LinkedIn, when she reached out to let me know she was considering joining $ix Figures Lab. And I gave her coaching right there in the DMs that she now says changed the trajectory of her business.   Jennifer is now positioned as a Fractional Chief Financial Officer, who guides service-based business owners through the maze of their finances, so they can make sound decisions based on facts and figures.
