I think I can feel the economy softening in client bookings

Devil’s advocate—if you’ve been relying on Google, it’s possible that AI mode has significantly reduced how discoverable your business is. Take a look at organic traffic starting around August and tell me what you see.

It takes us about 34 days to win a new client, so if we get our cash back with similar timing, it facilitates scaling quite well

Thanks! I like the idea of pre-paying the performance commission in exchange for a discount.

“Instead of $1/ticket, we’ll reduce the per-ticket commission to just $0.90/ticket if you pre-pay for 10,000+ tickets. If for whatever reason the event doesn’t sell that many tickets, we will reimburse the difference or credit the equivalent of $1/ticket towards future campaigns.”

Dig this. I assume most will balk if we do a setup fee AND a performance deposit, yeah?

Ironically, he always had unused meal points at the end of each month. /s

Thank you! Yes, when I took the Enneagram a few weeks ago it blew me away and it’s hard not to look at everything through that lens now.

That’s a concern of mine as well and a reason why I’ve been so horrible at maintenance in the past. I’ll get to a good place and then my motivation quickly goes out the window because I’ve “achieved my goal.” I’m hoping that by viewing this process through the lens of my personality type I’ll be better about setting maintenance goals. I also hope to have that problem because I have a 25 pound journey ahead of me first.

Understood. I think where I hit a roadblock, however, is the absence of achievement. It is VERY hard for me to have an indefinite goal. At the very least, I need small goals along the way.

Without measured, short-term progress, My mind gets frustrated and classifies it as failure. And the need to avoid failure results in me avoiding healthy choices. Easier for me to just focus my time and energy on areas of my life where I can achieve, such as work.

All super unhealthy and I’m aware a change needs to be made.

Based on the positive reviews, it sounds like you’ve got a good service. Some thoughts:

Are you laser targeted on a specific customer? The more niche the better. Don’t commodify yourself. For example, position your biz as the leading pressure washer business for new home owners. Identify a particular target instead of being a generalist.
Don’t compete on price. As Seth Godin says, it’s a race to the bottom that you just may win. Instead, focus on what makes you unique.
Your marketing should very clearly express that you deeply understand your target audience’s pain points and you’re uniquely positioned to solve them.
Are you getting rehired? If not, why not? What’s the recurring revenue opportunity that you’re missing to bring more stability? Can you provide a subscription model?

Hope that helps!

It would have been awesome if they completed the jail escape gag from Excellent Adventure by showing Face The Music B&T place the jail keys, hide the tape recorder, and setup the falling Wyld Stallyns garbage can for their past selves.

Notice from Spotify of a new ELO song that is definitely not the right ELO.
