Today, we’re talking about standardization, what it actually means, why it matters more as you grow, and how it unlocks clarity in your offer, marketing, sales, and client delivery. We explore how most people cobble together their process until it breaks, why standardizing isn’t just about having a sales page, and what shifts when you finally define the problem you solve. You’ll hear us unpack the MP3 framework (market the problem, the process, and the proof), how it helps solopreneurs and micro-agencies stay consistent, and why content isn’t strategy unless it’s pointed at something real. We also talk about structuring sales conversations, what the cascade framework actually looks like in practice, and why being good at sales has nothing to do with being “salesy.” Finally, we share how engagement becomes scalable once you’ve done the internal work and why relationship-building doesn’t need to be delegated, just standardized.
