EOFire customers

  • EOFire’s perfect customer (avatar) is a mid-age male at a corporate job spending most of his time doing things he doesn’t really love to do

Kate’s best advice about approaching the customer

  • You need to do things that DO NOT SCALE. Mainly speaking with a lot of your customers. That’s the only way to understand who your perfect customer is

Biggest failure with a customer

  • Kate takes us back to her days as account manager in marketing and advertising agency, standing between the agency and a very angry customer. This case actually helped her understand this wasn’t the place she wanted to be in, and therefore joined John Lee Dumas at EOFire.

Biggest success due to the right customer approach 

  • The Freedom Journal’s community. John Lee Dumas and Kate had a great success launching The Freedom Journal – a guide to help people accomplish their number one goal in 100 days. The Freedom Journal community is a platform for likeminded people that come together, help support one another provide feedback to one another and help each other accomplish their goal.
  • Kate talks about the importance to listen to your customers. This community for her is the place to get a clear picture of what they customers need and want

Freedom Journal – The Freedom Journal is a stunning, hardcover Journal that will guide you in the accomplishment of your #1 goal in 100 days.
