Welcome back to Bonanza Growth podcast, where listeners get to explore the world of startups and growth through the eyes of a diverse range of expert guests. Hosted by Behrad Mirafshar, the founder and CEO of Bonanza Studios, each episode offers an in-depth conversation with a distinguished guest who brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table.

In this episode, Behrad is joined by a special guest, Anthony Pierri. Anthony serves as a partner at Fletch PMM, a company dedicated to assisting early-stage founders in positioning their products and effectively translating that positioning into compelling website messaging. Anthony's professional journey is nothing short of remarkable, including achievements such as contributing to an email newsletter with an astounding 200,000 subscribers, creating a thriving community for individuals recovering from religious trauma, and launching a podcast with a consistent audience of over 11,000 downloads per episode. But that's just the beginning.

The conversation starts with a bit of small talk about the summer weather in Chicago and its unusual impact due to wildfires in Canada. From there, Behrad and Anthony delve into Anthony's background, uncovering his Chicago roots and his transition from the bustling city center to the suburbs.

The heart of the discussion revolves around the niche market that Fletch PMM caters to – early-stage startup founders on LinkedIn. Behrad and Anthony underscore the significance of this niche and how Fletch PMM's specialized services cater to the unique needs of this specific audience.

One of the most intriguing aspects of Fletch PMM's approach is its focus on providing packaged services for startups, particularly in website messaging and positioning. Anthony explains why this specialization reduces competition in this niche and allows them to offer tailored solutions that resonate with their clients.

As the conversation continues, the duo explores how Fletch PMM utilizes its website messaging services as a "foot in the door" strategy to upsell additional services. Anthony provides valuable insights into the process of addressing immediate service-level needs of clients, such as improving website copy, before diving into broader strategic discussions.

Anthony clarifies that Fletch PMM primarily sells strategy, with website copy being just one aspect of their comprehensive approach. The discussion emphasizes the importance of helping clients articulate their value proposition, positioning, and messaging effectively within the market.

The concept of "minimum viable positioning" emerges as a powerful strategy, where startups need to convey at least one specific aspect about their product and one specific aspect about their target market in their messaging to be memorable and effective.

One common challenge that startups face is the lack of a marketing background among their founders. Anthony emphasizes how many early-stage founders need assistance in crafting messaging that truly resonates with their audience.

Join us for an engaging and informative discussion that's bound to take your startup to new heights. Bonanza Growth podcast is your go-to resource for startup success, and this episode is no exception!
