Seriously Don't Do That Dan

In general, most times, how you use something informs how you set it up. Therefore, you should strive to drive people to and through your website. It is also very important to align with your customer’s journey as they go from being aware of a potential problem/pain/challenge to the point where they buy something.

Having an effective website is critical in getting prospective customers and should not be overlooked. A website that is very simple, targeted, has a call to action, chat option, and internal pathways with group content will help you to grow and succeed.

Smaller, founder led companies are always seduced by the allure of big deals. But whether you are at an initial or critical stage, don’t spend all your time fishing for that one big customer or deal.

Early-stage companies always prefer being in ‘stealth mode’ when developing a product. However, this is a bad idea because by the time you emerge from the bat cave, someone else who has been in ‘sales mode’ will have taken over your potential customers.

Part of being a successful growing business is hiring talent and letting them do what they are good at.However, when it comes to salespeople, it is more advisable to get someone that not only gets you off the launch pad but also helps you develop your own talent.

Not working for free seems like a no-brainer, right? Not quite! As a growing company, this is a real struggle. Remember, working for free will not win sales.
