[20:59] It's 100% appropriate for you to say I recommend this solution for you. You need to identify their need and that you have a solution and get their permission to put the solution in front of them.

[23:45] Highlight your credentials and expertise. Take a stand on what differentiates you. Speak to your ideal client. Look for authentic messaging. Make your recommendation.
