Marketing a brand new practice area can be very exciting, however…

There’s a potential problem that people often overlook:

When your marketing outpaces your product, you’re more likely to self-sabotage a sale.

To quote the Joker in The Dark Knight:

“I'm like a dog chasing cars, I wouldn't know what to do if I caught one.”

What does that mean, exactly? Well, for example…

If you’re confident in your marketing, but not confident in your new practice area yet…

You’ll subconsciously find a way to lose a sale if you aren’t sold on the process.

As a result, you end up burning the first few clients you get, and those “wins” become toxic.

So how can you introduce a new service without disrupting the rest of your firm?

In this week’s podcast, Jan discusses the simple steps you can take to have an effective marketing strategy in a new practice area without the common hurdles most firms run into.
