Be Bold. Make the Change. Have a meaningful Impact.

At this video I am presenting about a common mistake that many early stage startups do. We see more early stage startups concentrating on pitching for investment, running from pitching event to pitching event and completely neglecting sales, which is the only thing that will sustain them and allow them to grow. Furthermore market validation through sales is guaranteed to bring in investors. I am also giving away practical examples and tips for sucessful sales. So my advice, before you start looking to raise investment capital, validate your idea through the market and start selling! Big thank you to Daniel Priestly, Andrew Priestly and the Dent Global team (https://www.dent.global) for their support and executive training over the past 12 months.

Cleantech Geek Thoughts on the Move Series – At this series I will be producing short videos on the move from various locations. On this series I will be giving you my thoughts on issues that startups and companies face. From sales, marketing and leadership to sustainability and carbon footprint reduction. I will be sharing with you my point of view, my experiences, insights and personal leanings.

At this video I am discussing about the necessity of developing sales processes that you and your team can follow and the importance of selling on value and not on price or time. You do that, by demonstrating that you clearly understand the problems of your clients and by providing them with a methodology and a road-map of how you will solve their problems with your products or services. So my advice, create sales processes that you and your team can follow, understand the problem you are solving and provide a clear pathway of how you will do that! Sell on value not on price?
