Takeaways1. Count the first person pronouns in one of

your brochures or on your home webpage. If there are a lot of words like ‘we’, ‘us’ or ‘our’, you aren’t focused on your target audience.

2. Find your company’s value proposition. Is it a description of your offering or a statement about WIIFM from the audience perspective.
