Crisis vs opportunity

I have a few clients who come to me only when they have urgent problems. Maybe they're opening a new event registration next week, but it's not all working as expected and they're worried that it will be a disaster.

So I help them get it working properly, until they're comfortable opening registration. And then I don't hear from them again until some other problem comes up.

I have other clients who come to me early, to work out a strategy for tackling some new opportunity they’ve seen. We figure out their goals, workout a strategy, and either I'll help them with the implementation or they'll go back and do it themselves.

It's just a difference in working style.

Some people focus on putting out fires. Others focus on reaching for new opportunities.

Which working style do you have?

Which one would you like to have?

All the best,
A.
