Scaling sales is a big topic. There’s a ton of information out there on positioning, building funnels, doing cold email outreach, content marketing, consultative selling. In other words, lots of specific tactics.But just jumping into tactics skips perhaps the MOST important step: defining your ideal customer.Without this step, all of your strategies and tactics may go to waste.In this episode, I give you a simple, yet incredibly powerful framework for identifying your ideal customer. I cover:

• Walking you through this ideal customer framework
• How to avoid trying to scale with the wrong customers
• 2 things you probably haven’t considered in defining your ideal customer
• Why narrow and specific is crucial to scaling
• And…an even more powerful way of thinking that breaks through mental blocks on scaling
