Using Each Blueprint With the Correct Audience
Every Blueprint is built for a specific audience. Using it with the wrong one undermines both the tactic and the relationship.
- Client Acquisition tactics are built for new-prospect contexts, people who aren’t already in your known relationship base.
- COI & Database Maintenance tactics are built for known relationships, people already in your sphere or database.
- Don’t use your known-contact list for a Client Acquisition motion where the Blueprint specifically calls for new-prospect audiences.
- Don’t use relationship language that overstates the actual relationship: a warm, familiar tone toward someone you barely know reads as inauthentic and can backfire.
Your Blueprint’s Assignment section states the intended audience for that specific tactic. When in doubt, that’s the source of truth.
