Here are the highlights of this episode:
1:43 Yakov’s ideal Client: Somebody who either wants to raise capital, attract investors using LinkedIn or somebody in the B2B type of service space who wants to attract A-list, high-end, premiere type of client.
2:13Problem Yakov helps solve: They don't have control of generating leads at will, on demand. And instead they're stuck hoping to get referrals, that's what usually happens.
2:48Typical symptoms that clients do before reaching out to Yakov: People just aren't able to first of all, get their foot in the door. Maybe they have a type of client they really want to work with, who will get a lot of value from working with them, and maybe they have no way of reaching that person, and when they try to reach out and market or offer their help, it goes on deaf ears because the market is so saturated. There's so much noise out there whether they're just being ignored, and that's not letting them do their best work and it's also not letting their potential client benefit from working with them. The other issue is, it's very sporadic, it's a roller coaster of some months having enough clients and enough business. And another month having a dry up and looking for that next lead or clients. Those are couple of the big things, there are some symptoms and consequences of those, are shortages in cash flow, instability, a lot of stress, a lot of sleepless nights, a lot of hardships and struggle that's completely unnecessary when you do have a way of generating leads consistently.
4:08What are some of the common mistakes that folks make before finding Yakov and his solution: Couple of the biggest ones is they're not doing the right thing; so they're trying to just ‘post and hope’. They're trying to post something to LinkedIn and hope it brings a new flurry of new business. And that 99.9% of the time is not the case. So, they don't have a methodology, strategy or system. They're not reverse engineering how to hit their goal, how to hit their outcome using LinkedIn, using that platform. There are some people who are actively taking a lot of action and trying to do outreach, but reaching out in an ineffective way. They are reaching out where they're coming up as family or salesy, that's not working either. And then you have the people who are just spending so much time trying to do a whole bunch of things, hoping something sticks. They don't have clear direction on that as well. Another big mistake is that some people go on thinking of advertising on LinkedIn, spend money on LinkedIn ads when in reality for most businesses the organic marketing st...
