127. Is it Appropriate to Fire Customers?

Author: Brian Harding August 15, 2023 Duration: 19:31

We work our tails off, and spend a tremendous amount of time and money to find customers.

Yet despite our best efforts, sometimes it just feels like it we can’t please them all.

But is firing them the right answer?

Tune in and I’ll tell you what I think!


Are you ready to solve the most immediate problems in your company?

Is it time for you to learn the strategies to grow and scale

your business so you can have both the money and time you dream of?

Are you tired of feeling alone, and wish you could be around

other business owners who will 'get you' and understand exactly what you are

going through?

If so, come check out my Service Business Academy membership,

where you can ask about, and we will immediately solve, the most pressing

problems you are facing RIGHT NOW.

Plus, you’ll be part of a group of people who know exactly what you are going through in a way that even your family can’t quite understand.

To get the Zoom and other details, just send a quick, introductory email to hello@serviceindustrysuccess.com with the word 'group' in the subject.
