Why aren't your services and/or products selling like they could be?
You’re not on the radar of your ideal clients, so you’re not making their short list.
Your ideal buyers are aware of you, but don’t recognize your offerings as a solution to their problem.
Your buyers recognize that you offer a potential solution to their problem, but they don’t find your claims credible—they don’t trust you (yet).
Your ideal people trust your solution to their potential problem, but your solution costs more than it’s worth to them to solve it.
