Passion To Prosperity For The Holistic Practitioner and Service Provider

Submitted by Maria Simone | RSS Feed | Add Comment | Bookmark Me!

All too often, practitioners and service professionals who maintain a high degree of integrity with the work they do find it challenging to grow their business --- or to even think of the service they provide as a “business”. What general happens is they find themselves continually trading time for dollars with no room left to pursue other important activities such as marketing, follow-up, networking, operational duties, or developing other revenue streams of their business, etc.

Here are some key elements of how to create a successful service business that not only maintains the integrity of the service people receive from you but is also scalable in nature which allows for unlimited growth. This is because your time is spent growing the business and not necessarily working IN the business.

Make sure you are clear about what you want YOUR life to look like so that the business can become a total reflection of what you enjoy doing.

All too often, people get caught up in creating a business that isn’t necessarily what they wanted such as wearing too many hats, providing services that don’t thrill them, working with customers they don’t particularly like, keeping hours that don’t suit them, etc. When you get clear with what you want first, it’s easier to develop a business you’ll be passionate about.

Make sure you have identified your specific target or niche market.

The more you can specialize, the more successful you will become. When you know who your market is, you can create products and services that totally support them. You will know their lifestyle preferences, how they like to be communicated too, what they hold most dear, etc. Your customers will feel totally supported and understood and will benefit greatly from what you have to offer.

Express gratitude and appreciation often with everyone that crosses your path.

Your team will be totally devoted to you and it will show in the level of care they provide to your customers. Your customers will feel compelled to refer often and will continue to request services from you. Your neighbors will support your efforts with advertising and media support. Prospective customers will want what everyone else is experiencing.

Learn to package yourself in ways that serve more people.

This is my specialty when working with service providers. You want to look at different aspects of what you do and see how you can best share it with many at one time as opposed to just one person at a time. This includes finally putting that book together, group coaching, teleclasses, workshops, developing a game to take people through your process, private labeling your products, etc. Taking the steps of really going to the next level is very freeing and will help create true abundance in your business.

LinkedIn Recommendation: Willia Mickulskis - Internet Marketing Specialist at Taggart Transcontinental - I met Teo at a networking event last year and remember thinking "I need to work with this guy" but I didn't contact him until a couple months ago. Boy, I am glad I did. We found some new strategies that have brought new customers to my business within a month. Sales are up! I look forward to more of the same! - March 15, 2012, Willia was Teo's client
