🫧 There are 100 kinds of chefs


The No Barrier Reef 🪸

Hey Reader, I hope you've had a great weekened!

Yesterday, I had this chat with a friend who's a private chef.

We discussed what's going on in his industry and some of the challenges they are facing.

Do you know what a Chef means?

It means Chief. A manager.

In the kitchen world, it's someone who has accumulated years of experience and knowledge and has passed rigorous tests that declare him a Chef. It's a title earned through dedication and hard work.

But there are different kinds of chefs.

Some of them are researchers - They wander in the woods, pick up mysterious ingredients, and experiment with fermentation.

Some of them are entrepreneurs - They open 20 restaurants with ghost chefs and rotate between them to ensure the level stays up to par.

Some of them are cooks - They have one restaurant where they work the line 7 days a week, touching every plate.

You call them all Chefs, but their situations are completely different.

The same goes for you, the entrepreneurs.

Some are marketers. Some are salesmen. Some are financiers.

Some are developers. Some are engineers. Some are artists.

We all have different needs, different strong suits, different challenges.

You can't put all entrepreneurs in one box, just like chefs!

Remember that when you write to your audience, talk to a prospect, or consider a new marketing approach.

And if you're a product-inclined entrepreneur and you feel like your whole go-to-market is a guessing game, drop me a line.

I can help.

PS: In case you've missed it, here's the story of how I circled Australia with a 1984 Toyota van.

When I was a little kid, I was fascinated with ants. I stared at them for hours. I would follow up on a single colony for week.s I read books about them (highly recommend Bernard Werber's books. Truly innovative) Do you know how to find a colony? You tap an ant. It panics and runs home. Back to where it's safest. People are the same. That's why we shout 'Mommy!' when we're scared.

The No Barrier Reef 🪸 The most important part of becoming a solopreneur is failing. If you don’t fail, you don’t learn. And there’s a lot to learn: What kind of work are you really good at? What is your ideal client profile? How much should you charge? What type of content should you write? How should you build your offer? All valid questions, requiring trial and error. The social media gurus love coloring things black & white. “Do this!” “Don’t do that!” “Here’s the simple path to success.”...
