WHEN building any customer-facing content, funnel, page, email, call script, or offer structure THEN apply the AIDA fractal at every scale — each value ladder stage has its own AIDA cycle, each piece of content has AIDA within AIDA, and the customer journey is a Hero's Journey where the customer convinces themselves to go because they already believe themselves to be the hero.

"You make more money because of who they are, not because of who you are."
The key insight: Focus on your best customers (top 20%) and find what they have in common. Then re-engineer everything to attract more of them and repel the rest.
Most businesses try to serve everyone. But:
Create a survey with these question categories:
| Category | Questions to Ask |
|---|---|
| Demographics | Age, gender, location, job title, family status, business type |

| Aspirations | What was their goal? What problem were they solving? |
| Buying Process | Why did they buy? Trigger event? What content did they consume? How did they find you? Who referred them? |
Pro tip: Offer an incentive to complete the survey. Or better — ask live on a call or at an event.
Sort customers by three metrics:

Read through the survey responses from your top 20%. Find the 3-5 qualifiers they all share.
Examples of qualifiers:
The goal: Come up with the FEWEST qualifiers that explain why these customers are your best.
Once you have your avatar qualifiers:
A. Speak to your new avatar:
B. Re-engineer the sales process:
"You can charge more because of who they are, rather than who you are."

|---|---|---|
| Small business ($100K revenue) | +$40K/year | $4K/year |
| Enterprise ($10M revenue) | +$4M/year | $400K/year |
Serving the right customer means you can charge more for the same work.
Start with what you know:
