Stop Wasting Time on the Wrong Customers: How to Sharpen Your Targeting

Are you spending too much time chasing deals that never close? It’s a common problem for small and medium-sized businesses, and it’s one of the biggest barriers to growth. The hard truth is that not every prospect is the right customer. The faster you identify and qualify your ideal customers, the faster you’ll grow. 

Here’s how to sharpen your targeting: 

• Define Your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP): Know exactly who you’re targeting based on industry, company size, decision-making roles, and pain points. Without a clear ICP, you’re shooting in the dark. 

• Say ‘No’ More Often: Every misaligned customer you pursue is time and resources wasted. Focus on prospects that match your ICP and have a high likelihood of closing. 

• Leverage Data and Technology: Use analytics tools to identify patterns among your most successful customers. Double down on what’s working and stop chasing what isn’t. 

Sharpen your focus, and you’ll turn wasted effort into momentum. Growth isn’t about chasing every opportunity – it’s about pursuing the right ones.
