The Winning Mindset
In the dynamic world of sales, success isn't just about closing deals; it's about cultivating the right mindset. This is true of salespeople and those who lead them.
Great salespeople understand that their mindset plays a crucial role not only in their individual success but also in choosing the right company to work for. In this post, I'll talk about the key mindset attributes of top-performing salespeople and how these factors influence their decisions about who they choose to work for.
The Accidental Growth Lid
A business owner creates an Accidental Growth Lid when they won't let go of the sales function in their business. This is an all-too-common entrepreneurial mistake. It not only affects the growth and valuation of their business, it often creates some personal challenges as well.
I have had far too many conversations with business owners about their lack of margin and time for the things and people they love. There is a lot of frustration about it to be sure. However, most entrepreneurs I've talked to simply consider it an acceptable cost of building a new business.
