This episode, we’re joined by Transformational Marketing Strategist, Podcaster, and Speaker Jürgen Strauss to talk about ISO 9001, and how businesses can identify their ideal client.
All businesses need customers and they need to understand who their ideal client would be, as only then can you clearly identify what your ideal clients needs are.
Jürgen explains how to identify your ideal client, how using an empathy map can assist with this, and how this all influences your marketing strategy.
