Understand why customers hire your business and learn practical JTBD strategies to sharpen your positioning, messaging, and growth.

Customers don’t buy products; they "hire" solutions. A car fixed, a new toy, a great meal, a dog walked, a problem solved. Understanding why customers choose you is far more important than most founders realize.

In this practical webinar, you'll learn how to define the real reason customers "hire" your business and how to clearly position your offer, so it stands out in a crowded market.

📚 What you’ll learn in this session:

  • The fundamentals of the Jobs To Be Done (JTBD) framework
  • How your customers think and make decisions
  • How to move customers from their old way of doing things to your new solution
  • How to quickly engage customers and prospects with clearer messaging

Walk away with a clearer understanding of your customers and practical insights you can apply immediately to improve marketing, messaging, and growth.
