Written by on May 23, 2019 / Inside BS Podcast

The Do This Sell More Show began as a weekly interview between Dave Lorenzo and a special guest. In this show Dave’s guest is Deb Gabor.

In this episode, Dave and Deb discuss:

  • How your brand is your target and the 3 questions to ask to raise their profile.
  • Building your brand and story around a specific avatar.
  • How to get inside the head of your ideal client.
  • Consistency and authenticity in brand success.

Key Takeaways and actionable tips:

  • Don’t try and be everything to everyone. Focus everything on your best customer and build the brand for the best customer.
  • Your ideal customer is a human being, not a business.
  • Irrational loyalty is available to any company as long as you understand your customer’s hero story.
  • Don’t get stuck in the middle of the pyramid, go to the top of the pyramid.
