Larry Weidel (speaker) explains the importance of defining an "avatar" (ideal client) early when building an agency. He describes mapping their needs, problems, personality traits, location, interests/groups, then using that profile to design frameworks, SOPs, and hiring practices to attract and retain similar clients — a slower, deliberate approach that improves retention and fit.

I think, understanding distinguishing your avatar, which is your ideal type of client. Early days, because at the beginning I was scrambling, I was trying to figure that out. Once I understood their exact needs and answering all the problems and situation, their personality trait, where they reside, what their interests and groups are, then I could put together a framework, SOP process, hire people to cultivate people just like them. And that took time to develop, but I think it's much more rewarding when you do it slow and steady. And actually you get a better retention rate. Knowing exactly who you want to target and who you want to work with.
