The Transformative Strategy That Can Help You Scale Beyond $1 Million

 Market research and customer feedback could be the ticket to scaling your businesses beyond the $1 million mark. Without gathering insights from the market and listening to customer feedback, you are effectively running your business on guesswork, which is very costly. Researching the market gives your business and vision an informed direction to steer towards, and developing solutions based on customer feedback builds trust and loyalty. Once you have researched and utilized feedback, use your intuition to create a strategic, but flexible, business plan, so you can test, learn and iterate your way to success. With the right business strategy, you can tap into your unique strengths and flourish as a powerful and influential leader in the business world.

This week's challenge: Speak with 10 potential customers and ask them open-ended questions about their pain points and frustrations. Use #sugarcoatedfeedback to share your surprising insights with SheLeadsMedia on Instagram!
