In this episode I do a dive deep with my guest, Marc Borrelli, into the critical importance of understanding a business’s core customer. We explore how accurately identifying and comprehending the core customer is not just about demographics or market segmentation, but about genuinely understanding their needs, wants, and pain points. This understanding is pivotal for devising a successful business strategy and creating a unique market differentiation which contributes to a company that can thrive without you, giving you more options for your 4th quarter.
The conversation further dives into the common pitfalls companies face when they fail to identify their core customer, leading to short-term tactical decisions rather than a cohesive, long-term vision.
Equally helpful is for the listener who has exited their business to pursue another venture. Knowing your core customer is important to saving time so you can get up and running quicker with success.
