6 Obstacles to Business Growth

Six Obstacles to Business Growth.

1. Overthinking and Self-Doubt:

You constantly question your next steps and overanalyze every detail, including yourself. This leads to paralysis by analysis and prevents you from making decisive moves.

2. Misaligned Marketing Efforts:

You are targeting an audience that no longer aligns with your evolved business. As a result, your marketing efforts are not translating into sales, indicating a need to redefine your target market.

3. Scope Creep Without Compensation:

Projects start small but expand significantly over time, yet your payment doesn't reflect this growth. This imbalance leads to burnout and hesitation in taking on new clients, impacting your sales momentum.

4. Stalled Sales:

Nine months into client work, the scope has doubled, but the payment has not. This leads to massive reluctance to continue to sell and a stall in sales growth.

5. Unclear Target Audience:

As you've grown, your understanding of your ideal client has become muddled. You need to reassess who your services are best suited for and tailor your marketing strategies accordingly.

6. Fear of Change and Stagnation:

You're resisting necessary changes in your business due to fear or uncertainty. This resistance hinders your ability to adapt, innovate, and ultimately grow.

Addressing these obstacles by identifying your personality + leadership style toward reinvention and growth can help you navigate your business more effectively and achieve steady growth and success.
