Quiz: Is My Business Ready?
Quick Reflection—How Did You Do?
Did you match the criteria? Are you ready?
If you’re excited about this journey, let’s quickly get you a custom roadmap that matches your main priorities, so that you don’t get lost in theory and you get the most value from our series.
Your Roadmap
Answer the following two questions to get your recommended roadmap for approaching your business’s digital farm.
Q: What is your biggest business challenge at the moment?
Client acquisition
Sector 1 is dedicated entirely to client acquisition, so make sure you start here.
Here are topics you need to cover:
- the trust plant
- Sector 1 (in detail)
- Revenue Village
Client retention
Sector 3 focuses on nurturing existing clients with the goal of encouraging repeat purchases.
If you want help with existing client retention and monetization, then you need:
- the trust plant
- everything on Sector 3
- Revenue Village
- Profit Village
Profit optimization
Although profit optimization overlaps a lot with opertaional improvement, there are still important aspects of the digital farm that you will find useful in achieving this goal.
In particular, pay attention to:
- the trust plant
- Profit Village
- Sector 3
Employee acquisition and retention
If your main focus right now is on employees and not clients, then simply follow the digital farm model, but replace “prospect” with “potential employee” and “client” with employee.
The entire model can be applied to employees, so what you’ll want to cover is:
- the trust plant
- Sector 1 (specifically for acquisition)
- Sector 3 (specifically for retention)
We will additionally release specific resources for employee-focused digital farms that translate the whole farm, but especially Sector 2 (whose translation is a bit more obscure than the others), so when those become available, we’ll link to them here.
Q: Do you have a significant budget to invest in marketing?
Yes
Execute and work on the full digital farm model. You could even do most of it at once.
No
You still want to build the full digital farm, but you need to approach it piece by piece.
To start with, focus on Sector 1 with the budget-friendly simplification of merging fields A and E together, and C and D together, so you work on A+E and C+D rather than A, E, C, D. (If this doesn’t make sense, don’t worry; start Chapter 1 and you’ll understand.)
We’ll also be releasing more resources for bootstrapped founders that need a no-capital version of the digital farm for their small businesses, so stay tuned.
Now You Have Your Roadmap
And you’re ready to get started with Chapter 1 of the Digital Farm Series.
