Competition is getting hot in B2B

    Here's an idea to help prevent losing your shirt.

    You may not want to hear this, but the number of firms competing with you is growing daily. Young, ambitious entrepreneurs are quickly and inexpensively launching enterprises designed to target and steal your current and future customers. 

    They’re cold calling, emailing, and writing content targeting your customers. They’re using sophisticated PPC, Facebook, and LinkedIn tools and strategies. They’re creating compelling eBooks, building engaging Facebook groups, and launching interesting podcasts targeting the very same people you’re selling to.

    And if your marketing is getting ignored, you're going to lose. 

    The best way to combat this is to stop being a generalist.  

    Instead, you must specialize by choosing to serve a specific vertical market and then dedicate yourself to becoming the best-known and most-loved brand for that vertical market.

    This is the way in 2023.

    “Is this a good fit for my agency?”

    I partner with founders who want to build something meaningful, not just a busier agency, but a stronger, more scalable business.

    You’re likely a strong fit if:

    • You’re generating $1M–$20M+ annually
    • You want to lead your market, not blend into it
    • You’re thinking about long-term scale, not short-term tactics
    • You want a growth engine that doesn’t rely on you
    • You value clarity over complexity
    • You’re open to advanced growth levers, including acquisitions
