Re: Re: Starting from Scratch

Long time list member Rob Nyberg wrote in with an additional follow-up to my Starting from Scratch email from the other day (shared with permission, bold mine):

Hi Jonathan,

Just wanted to opine on this recommendation. Someone suggested this exercise to me and provided a list of questions to ask the client. I asked the client if they would be willing to meet with me and they were happy to (because of good relationship). I sent the questions ahead of the meeting and I was blown away by the responses!

Sending ahead of time gave the client time to thoughtfully consider their responses so when we met via conference call, I had well thought out quality responses.

It was an AMAZING exercise and to hear what the client thinks of you. That content was slightly edited and became my LinkedIn Bio.

Highly recommend this exercise as well.

Best Regards,

Rod

Thanks to Rod (and Reuben)!

Yours,

—J
