It should be a crime to learn sales before learning delivery…
I know, I know… you need money… blah blah blah…
It should be required to take a business course before you can open a business…
I'm starting to believe that the same way people didn't know they were a part of the pyramid schemes… A lot of grifters don't know they're a part of the grift…
A business coach who knows sales but not business is probably the most dangerous thing you can incorporate into your business early on…
They literally train you to "mindset" your way around every piece of business you don't understand, sell your way through every problem, and fire your way through every team coaching and training opportunity…
Cash flow too low
Typical answer = sell more or raise price…
Correct answer = understand your numbers
Don't Know if you afford a hire
Typical answer = believe in yourself or do it and figure it out later… they'll free you up to blah blah blah…
Correct answer = understand your numbers
Sales Not converting
Typical answer = fire the sales team or hire a better sales team
Correct answer = understand your numbers
I could go on and on…
You will not market and sell your way out of a poorly run business. You'll only stretch the holes bigger and bigger.
Too real for the timeline? 🤓
