Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in business development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Abigail Tiefenthaler, Co-Founder of Savvy Sales Strategy, located in Greeneville, TN, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

I co-run a client-getting agency - we take our 80+ years of combined marketing experience to support coaches, consultants, and speakers with client-getting strategies and systems that help them get clients consistently. We believe in the Theory of One - one audience, one offer, one message, and unique positioning to quickly get into action and testing.

Tell us about yourself

I am the daughter of a MadMan and grew up with entrepreneurial parents who created marketing programs and support for many client types. My degrees are in marketing and management. I'm married 32 years to my true North and have two adult daughters who live too far away for my taste. I love to travel and entertain, and will always watch a good Hallmark movie. Why not? 2 hours and a happy ending is perfect for me!

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

I hit $1 MM in my 2nd year in business and almost $2 MM in my 4th year. For 12 of my 16 years, I was in the top 5% of my industry. My business partnership enters its 5th year, and we keep going.

What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?

Everything starts and stops with you.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Hire experts because you don't know what you don't know.
  2. Be consistent and persistent in your messaging.
  3. Commit to success. Be patient. And be flexible.
