Why I specialized • I had / have limited resources • Limited Time • Limited Money • Limited access to employees • Enjoyment • I don’t like troubleshooting insurance CRM systems • I do like designing TV matrices • I gain a depth of knowledge, not a range of knowledge • I can charge a premium for expert advice • Marketing = referrals. Clients talk to other people in their industry a lot more than in other industries
Why I specialized • Automation really pays • Templates speed up quotes and support requests • Automating tasks save time and money • I can invest time in automating tasks because they are mostly the same for all my clients • Contacts • A single industry allows me to grow meaningful partnerships with similar companies • Everybody knows everybody
What I benefited from specializing • I work a lot less • I get to spend time on other things • I have get more respect from clients • I do interesting things • I make more money • I get more work done with less employees
