Before I started my business, I was undaunted by the task before me and the task of reaching out. The very first list of things you need to do in order to push ahead and be successful, is to recognize any and all potential withholds there are and may be, and creatively expel them. The mission of Thomas Herding Technique is

Knowing your audience is essential yes, but understanding your audience will allow you sustained success on a higher level.
Blend Old And New School Thinking To Create A Unique Niche
You must then ask yourself, what limitations are self imposed that keep otherwise potential clients and markets at bay? I developed THT with one audience in mind, yet that was the global horse audience, and I designed and researched and offer services that have an impact on any discipline. Casting out a net that leaves for less chance of an escape, because THT offers something for everyone, based on fundamentals everyone from everywhere, can appreciate and worded so that it is relevant to the individual. Being personal, offering personal touch services, going the many extra miles and time to make sure that each customer and potential customer who is newly introduced, knows you have taken the effort to do the introduction in a personal manner, because they are that important. Finding a niche, that is the niche that embraces both sides of the coin, not being all one thing and nothing of the other, but a harmony in blended services and details in the business that shows both old and new schools of thought, that you cared enough about their side, to be inclusive of them.
Marketing By Association
When you are marketing and hope to reach say three key people or companies, don't send out three announcements, send out 103, cast your net as far as you can. Also, never let yourself get trapped in your own corner. For me, I centered on advertising in the horse related areas of course, yet I also cast my net very much wider, into ponds that seemed not to hold as much interest on the outside. It was Universities, photographers, conservation groups, and any and all places where there were potential human beings that might be interested, or indeed, know someone who would be. The key to success, in this area, is marketing by association. It holds the secrets to success when done correctly.
About Using Technology And Personal Relationship Importance
Honest integrity, hand shakes, looking you in the eye sincerity. You know damn well that you will get the best I got, because I looked you in the eyes and told you. Because we can't do this with everything or everyone of course, the internet is the tool of choice, and your message better be consistent and clear. Key phrases must be used in key locations to accelerate associative brain functions, perception is reality in many cases, so your projected truths, better be just and accurate. Making people/clients, feel like human beings. Pick up the damn phone instead of that text or Email. Can't you see that in our personal relationships that fail, communication barriers are the cause? It is so in business. If someone isn't hiring you or your services, you are not communicating yourself properly in many cases.
Willingness to evolve on the go, become the need, the answer, in the given moment. Self assured confidence without ego, being gracious, interested, and understanding.
