What Sets You Apart?
In business, everybody knows that you win customers by being unique - not by following the crowd. Some car companies advertise for safety, others promote their comfort, while a few even go for luxury. Now, you’ve probably heard it a hundred times before - don’t advertise what you are, advertise what you do…especially what you do different. But I’m not going to talk about that here, instead - I’m going to discuss setting yourself apart personally.
Forget your business for a minute - think about you as a person. What makes you different than your closest competitor? Are you funnier? More trustworthy? What is it that would make people want to do business with you instead of your competition?
If you’re trying to take people for all they’re worth, your customers will quickly catch on. If you’re trying to provide as much value as possible, not only will your customers catch on but they’ll also tell their friends.
Whether it’s in person or online, you need to always present yourself as somebody that others can know, like, and trust. Not only will it earn you more business in the short run, but you’ll also improve the likelihood of receiving referrals in the future.
