All right, I am excited to chat with you today about sales process. It’s a very overlooked thing because many of us don’t have enough pipeline to really need one. In other words, we maybe do five to 15 calls a week, and a lot of times we still do it ourselves where we’ve got one or two AEs, they’ll have a conversation, they’ll talk price and they’ll send a quote. I’m coaching a lot of agency founders right now that that’s their actual sales process. Now, the problem with a sales process like that and what we’re going to discuss today is you have no real control over your average order value and thus the lifetime value of a customer and thus how much you can spend to acquire one. In other words, it’s hard to grow your business if you can’t expand the purchase size of someone’s appetite when they come to you. If someone comes to me and they say like, ” Hey, we have a 20K a month for paid media and we just want to spend.” And they want me to manage it. Well that’s a very small account that is very hard to grow and probably isn’t very profitable.
