Positioning boutique consulting firms as the lowest-risk choice  for their ideal clients

Stop being the "best-kept secret".

Positioining your firm as the lowest-risk choice will attract more best-fit clients, decrease sales cycles, and turn your firm into a sellable asset when you are ready to exit.

Your positioining needs to
de-risk the buying decision
for your ideal clients, because with more choice in the market (AI, fractional CXOs, offshore resources, etc.) the risk of choosing the wrong partner has increased exponentially. That risk has increased both for the individuals making the decisions, and for the organizations they work for.

If your growth is stalling, your ideal clients are likely seeing you as a risky bet due to one of the following positinoing issues:

Missing or Inadequate IP

The Solution

Successful boutique firms are taking the time develop frameworks and methodologies (the IP) that help their ideal clients understand WHY their core problem exists and how they should think about it; WHAT they can do about the problem, and how they should think about potential solutions; and HOW they can get their desired outcomes.

Indistinct
Go-to-Market

The Solution

Successful boutique firms are clearly defining their ICP (ideal customer profile), building their thought leadership engine, developing the necessary marketing and business development assets to evangelize the IP in the market, setting up data collection and measurement to understand the business impact of growth activities, and last but not least, setting up accountability systems for both marketing and business development.

Unremarkable Service Delivery

The Solution

Successful boutique firms aren't just paying lip service to their IP. They are ensuring that their services are carefully designed to deliver the value that their IP promises. The integrate the IP into all aspects of their operation - from contracts, to onboarding, to communication, reporting and assessments.
