You’ve started a business).
You’ve created a product or a service.
You’re selling it to clients and getting great feedback.
That’s great, you’ve overcome so many of the hurdles we face as entrepreneurs. But the next step is finding a way to keep new customers coming through the doors and scaling up your services.
That’s the challenge today's guest Matt Rudnitsky of Platypusbooks.com) is facing. Matt helps entrepreneurs and other interesting people turn their ideas and expertise into books.
For this, Matt earns $30k and up per project. But, as you might have guessed, it takes a ton of work and the client pipeline is sometimes dry for months at a time. Matt has also created an online course teaching self-publishing, but hasn’t enrolled any students yet.
So, I invited Kurt Elster from EtherCycle.com) back onto the show. (Some of you will remember Kurt from episode 71 back in 2014 where he talked about productized consulting).
Kurt hosts the unofficial Shopify podcast and is a leader in productized consulting in the Shopify space. He’s faced all the same problems Matt, and a lot of you reading this are currently facing.
Tune in to hear our take on Matt’s business and Kurt's recommendations for next steps. As you listen in, put yourself in Matt’s shoes and see how a similar product or service ladder can apply to your own business.
