If you can't say why it failed, you never tried it

You realized you needed to do some marketing, so you asked an AI tool for ideas and got back a list. You worked the list. Some outreach, a podcast, an agency, a little of each, and none of it produced much. So you tried the next thing, and the next, always with a fresh tactic right behind the last one. Six months later you've tried everything and learned almost nothing, because nothing ran long enough to tell you anything. The consultants who break this cycle aren't the ones who found the right tactic. They're the ones who stayed in long enough to know whether what they were doing could actually work. For consultants who've collected tactics like trading cards but still don't have consistent pipeline.
