See all- Are you diagnosing the RIGHT problem in your business?: DR. KAYVON KAYFoot Solutions, Vancouver, BCCA$15.00
Are you diagnosing the RIGHT problem in your business, or just throwing solutions at symptoms? If you’re like most solopreneurs—fractional executives, coaches, consultants—you’re quick to jump into action mode. It's easy to get caught up in DOING without a clear understanding of what exactly NEEDS FIXING.
Stop guessing says Dr. Kayvon K - Profit Finder. You've got to solve the right problem. No matter how well you do it, solving the wrong problem won't help. Solving the wrong problem will actually make the problem worse and further delay things.
Whether it’s a marketing issue (people aren’t paying attention), a branding mismatch (they’re not choosing you), or a sales slump (they’re not buying), each requires a specific, targeted solution.
Dr. Kayvon K - Profit Finder will share how to diagnose the right problem that may be stalling your business growth. Once you’ve got the right diagnosis, the path to growth becomes utterly obvious AND crystal clear.
Dr. Kayvon K. began his career studying medicine at the university level and describes himself as a recovered doctor who caught the entrepreneurial bug. He started his first business in 1998 and grew multiple businesses, attracting massive clients like Nokia.
Dr. Kayvon has been a member of the Forbes Coaches Council and Seth Godin’s altMBA inaugural cohort. He is also a Master-level Certified Productivity Coach. He earned his 𝘍𝘪𝘹 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘕𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘈𝘥𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘳 certification in 2020 and his 𝘍𝘢𝘴𝘤𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘈𝘥𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘳 certification in 2021.
