For The Interested - FTI #362: Maybe.
Maybe your audience is already big enough to accomplish your goals.
Maybe you need better clients, not more clients.

No One Needs More Videos To Watch, But...
I got an email this week from executive coach Richard Medcalf after he became a member of my Skill Sessions:
"I’m finding the Skill Sessions really great: tightly focused and practical.
I almost didn’t jump in because...who needs more videos to watch?…but I’m really pleased I did."
