The sixth challenge: Customer understanding – "Everyone" isn’t your target audience 💡


We’ve reached the second to last challenge in our growth and scalability series, and today, it’s all about customer understanding.


You’ve heard the phrase “everyone is a customer”, but let’s set the record straight: everyone is NOT your target audience. Trying to speak to everyone is the fastest way to speak to no one.


Why does customer understanding matter? 🎯

In the race to scale, it’s easy to focus on the wrong numbers. We often fixate on the number of leads – thinking more leads equals more growth. But here’s the truth: It’s not about quantity; it’s about quality.


If you don’t understand your customers’ needs, you’re just filling your funnel with random leads. And that won’t get you to the right deals or sustainable growth 🚀.


👉 Everyone’s needs are different – even if your product feels universal, pain points and goals vary.

👉 Behaviors change fast – what worked last month might not work today.

👉 Real growth isn’t just conversions – it’s about attracting the right customers and closing the right deals.


What does customer understanding really mean? 🧠

It’s about more than demographics. It’s about understanding: 👉 Who they are – motivations, challenges, and desires.

👉 What they need – identifying the job your product solves for them.

👉 Where they are in the journey – discovery, buying, or loyal customer?


How do you understand your customers better? 🔍

Here’s how to focus on the right leads and deals:

Talk to your customers – engage to understand their needs and pain points.

Use data – analyze trends to see what’s driving conversions 📊.

Segment your audience – focus on quality over quantity.

Adapt to changes – customer behaviors shift, so stay flexible.

Personalize your message – the more relevant, the better the connection.


Wrapping up 🔑

Customer understanding isn’t just about knowing who your customers are – it’s about focusing on the right leads, closing deals that align with your goals, and building long-term relationships.

Stop worrying about the number of leads. Focus on understanding your customers deeply, speaking to the right person at the right time, and watch your growth scale.
