Last month TELUS held a contest for its business customers asking entrepreneurs to identify what their biggest challenge was. Today’s winning question comes from Patty who asked: “How do I grow my business?”
TELUS asked me if I would answer Patty’s question.
My advice included:
There are three fundamental ways you can grow your business. You can:
1) Get more clients
- a) Give Something Away for Free
- b) Leverage the Media
- c) Leverage SEO and Newsletters
- d) Get more Referrals
- e) Form Partnerships
2) Increase the frequency of purchases from current clients
3) Increase the dollar size of the average transaction
