#1 Entrepreneurial Blind Spot

One of the fastest ways to successfully  SCALE  your business is recruiting and hiring the right talent to get you where you want to grow… Yet 9 out of 10 Entrepreneurs  avoid it like the plague . Sure, most of us already know we need TOP talent to grow and scale our businesses, BUT the majority of Entrepreneurs  really  struggle “cracking the code” when it comes to  successfully  attracting, qualifying, hiring and  ultimately  RETAINING the right people  for their team.  In all fairness, it’s not like they teach us this in school. And I’ve yet to come across a training program or course that outlines a  proven formula and step-by-step process  to successfully hiring right-talent for each unique business   out there  (especially for Entrepreneurial-based businesses).  It’s our  Greatest   Entrepreneurial Blind Spot.    As Entrepreneurs, we eventually come to a pivotal point in our business when our sales and marketing will hit a plateau  (or in some cases, take a dive) ,  OR  our sales...

David Vs All The Goliaths

Image
David vs all the Goliaths   I’m speaking of King David, of course. But  I (regular David) have had my share of Goliaths to  deal with. On a recent trip to Israel, I stood on the  very site King David himself stood and  had his biblical battle with the giant. It was a dream of mine to visit this site.  I envisioned what it might look like and  I was blown away seeing that it looked  exactly as I’d always pictured. I was so moved by the experience and  the energy of the history that surrounded  It was my last stop on my trip and I  took the moment to take it all in. The  story of David and Goliath  is one  we’re all familiar with and is used as a  metaphor across so many platforms in  our lives. In sports, education, politics,  and in business. Against all odds, with little means of protection,  armed with very little…the little guy defeats  the big guy. But as I stood there among the stone and  ruins (some of which were only uncovered  by archeologists 30 years ago) I was  reminded of s...

Aligning Sales & Marketing

Do you ever feel like your sales and marketing teams are on opposing sides?  It’s been a constant battle for decades for many business owners. These two “sides” always seem to be chirping at each other…  “These leads aren’t good.”   “You don’t use our content properly to sell.” Tell me something…Is this representative of your sales and marketing teams?  WATCH THIS FUNNY VIDEO  However, the real question is…  Does it actually matter if your sales and marketing teams are aligned?  Will that really help you SCALE your business? I can simplify those answers for you in a few bullet points: You absolutely need sales. You absolutely need marketing. You ABSOLUTELY need them on the same page. Period.  Sure, you’re selling. Revenue is there. But it’s just OK.  Just  OK  is  NOT  how you are going to scale your business.  At this point you might say, “Well look, if I’m selling, I’m selling. Marketing does their thing, sales does theirs.”  And I’d agree, that works to a certain point. Say, up to a...

Rate Your Client Value Meter

Image
You’ve likely heard that it’s less expensive to  retain  an existing client than it is to  acquire  a new one, right?  Believe it or not, it’s a pretty notable difference… The first sale always takes more time, energy, effort, and investment. Acquiring a new client can cost up to  5X more  than retaining or growing an existing one.  Plus, there’s an increased success rate of selling to a client that has previously bought from you… A 50% increase!  So why do so many companies get so laser focused on attracting new clients that they essentially ignore their current clients?    To understand better, let’s first get crystal clear on what  client value  is… Client value  is the level of satisfaction your clients feel towards your business. It can be calculated in several ways, but for this particular case let’s think of it as how much are they spending with you year-over-year.  As far as cost of acquisition vs. the cost of retaining. If you’re always burning through ad revenue and other acq...
