About Creating A Pumpkin Plan To Grow Your Service Business

You started your business with a big idea. And maybe you even got success fairly quickly, but continually growing and scaling can be overwhelming and bring with it a number of challenges. Between serving customers, trying to keep up, rising expenses and marketing, new challenges and honestly, trying to keep up with the daily grind. How do you grow when you still feel like you are in the trenches? In fact, 80% of businesses fail in the first year!

This is how Mike Michalowicz (author of the Pumpkin Plan and Profit First) felt when he ran his business. Let me know if these issues resonate… 

If you are asking yourself these questions…

  1. My marketing message is falling on deaf ears. I have a great product or service, how do I get the word out so more people use my service?
  2. Where are the growing profits? It feels like when we do attract interest the customers are more interested in the lowest price and discounts and client retention is just as challenging.
  3. When do I get to enjoy the fruits of my labor? Long hours, busy days, yet it feels like you can’t keep up or get ahead.

Then it’s time for the Pumpkin Plan to come to your rescue.

What is the Pumpkin Plan?

A Simple Strategy To Grow A Remarkable Business In Any Field

Who would have ever thought, that the key to explosive entrepreneurial success was held by pumpkin farmers?

Just as almost every pumpkin farmer grows ordinary Halloween carving pumpkins, most entrepreneurs grow ordinary, unremarkable businesses. Yet by tweaking their approach in small ways, farmers can grow giant, prize-winning pumpkins that get all the attention and press coverage.

In The Pumpkin Plan, Mike Michalowicz, reveals how applying the same few simple methods farmers use to grow colossal prize-winning pumpkins can lead entrepreneurs to grow colossally successful businesses.

The Pumpkin Plan is a data-driven system that you can use to discover your ideal customers and what they want. And by “your ideal customers” we mean more than the ones who will get you the most revenue with the least work.

Why Pumpkins & How Does It Apply To Your Business?

After reading an article about a local farmer who had dedicated his life to growing giant pumpkins, Michalowicz realized the same process could apply to growing a business. He tested the Pumpkin Plan on his own company and transformed it into a remarkable, multimillion-dollar industry leader. First, he did it for himself. Then for others. And now you. So, what is the Pumpkin Plan?

Profit First Certified Professional
  • Plant the right seeds: Don’t waste time doing a bunch of different things just to please your customers. Instead, identify the thing you do better than anyone else and focus all of your attention, money, and time on figuring out how to grow your company doing it.
  • Weed out the losers: In a pumpkin patch small, rotten pumpkins stunt the growth of the robust, healthy ones. The same is true of customers. Figure out which customers add the most value and provide the best opportunities for sustained growth. Then ditch the worst of the worst.
  • Nurture the winners: Once you figure out who your best customers are, blow their minds with care. Discover their unfulfilled needs, innovate to make their wishes come true, and overdeliver on every single promise.
