Generalists Lose – Every Time | EP 146
You’ve tried the courses, the frameworks, the pep talks.
You’re smart. Your team’s capable. Your clients like you.
So why does growth still feel like pushing a boulder uphill?
Because “we do everything for everyone” quietly guts your margins and your mojo.
This week’s episode, I tell the truth most won’t: generalists get ground down on price while specialists get chosen for value.
I share how shifting one decision—owning your inch-wide, mile-deep niche—changes who calls you, what they pay, and how much respect you command.
You’ll hear how a client stopped chasing low-fee, high-hassle work, tightened positioning, and broke past 40% net margins while doubling revenue.
If you’re tired of being “the safe option” that gets shopped on price, this is your line in the sand.
