Define your business (#1)
Sometimes we need to stop and take the time to reflect on our business.
In one or two sentences, describe your core business. Describe the characteristics of your “ideal” customer. What is your company’s value proposition to the customer? How would the customer describe the value provided by your product, service or solution? How does it add revenue, control costs, service or efficiency, etc.? Name three competitive strengths. What distinguishes you from your competitors? For example, you may offer a unique form of distribution, engineering, customer service or a proprietary product or service.
Change the outcome. –Chris
