When Having a Great Brand Hurts You
We all want to have the best brand we possibly can, right? We want customers to know what we stand for, to understand how passionate we are about our business, and to think of us as leaders in our industry or market.
But there are times when an outstanding reputation can actually hurt you, as I discovered recently in my interactions with a supposedly stellar brand, Ritz-Carlton.
Put Your Consulting Business on the Fast Track to Success
With our Consultants PowerPak Teleseminar Series
Drive your consulting business to the next level with marketing strategies that help you differentiate your consulting business and pull ahead of the pack.
