A life coach who gets real results is drowning in a market where everyone sounds exactly like her — and the usual advice (better logo, better colors, post more) misses what's actually wrong. Brian and Dave get into why that's a positioning problem, not a branding one: the idea, popularized by Al Ries and Jack Trout, that being better isn't enough if people can't quickly tell why you're different — or file you somewhere specific in their head. They work through the four questions that force a real position, why narrowing your audience feels like turning away money (and usually isn't), and where a sharp position stops working. Monday Move: replace your bio with one sentence — "I help [this specific person] get [this specific outcome] without [the thing they hate about the usual path]" — and let the right people find themselves in it.
