Podcast 46:51 | Download | Spotify| Stitcher | iTunes
These co-founders want to more than triple their revenue in the next 12 months. Despite stagnation the past few years, they believe they can get there.
Dan & Ian dissect their plans to achieve this goal and offer some counterintuitive advice.
They cover repackaging a product for a higher cost, focusing on your premium customers, and how to lead a sales call.
In this week’s newsletter, we include our favorite resources for getting started with sales calls.
TMBA email subscribers can also apply to get business coaching from Dan & Ian live on the pod (it’s free).
