Fixing Your “Frankenstein Business” – How to Attract the Right Clients

Are you attracting the right customers for your business, or are you stuck in a cycle of working long hours for clients who aren’t the right fit? In this episode of The Business Behind Your Business, host Paul Sweeney sits down with Marama Carmichael, CEO of Oracle Tree, to uncover why so many business owners struggle to find their ideal customers—and how to fix it. If you’re tired of feeling like your marketing efforts aren’t working or that your business has drifted away from your original vision, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you turn things around.

Marama shares how many entrepreneurs unknowingly create what she calls a Frankenstein business—taking on any client that comes their way, working unsustainable hours, and losing sight of their purpose. She explains why defining your ideal customer is critical for business success and breaks down practical strategies using her Marketing Tree framework. From clarifying your messaging to choosing the right marketing channels, Marama provides a step-by-step approach to help business owners attract high-quality clients and build a brand that truly resonates.

By the end of this episode, you’ll learn how to refine your marketing strategy, avoid common mistakes that waste time and money, and create a business that supports your goals—rather than one that drains your energy.
