Fear and growth can’t coexist
|
I can tell you’re scared by how you talk about customers, how you do Customer Success, and—most of all—by your numbers. If everything is about ‘saving’ customers, I already know you have a scarcity mindset. Any growth you get is from brute force net-new sales to offset churn and contraction. Any expansion that happens? It’s in spite of your efforts, not because of them. Meanwhile, companies that actually grow do things differently. ✅ From Day 1, customers are on an ascension path. 💰 Scared money don’t make no money. I’m locking in companies for Q2 revenue growth engagements. And I’ve talked to way too many people who are scared. Not because of the economy. That’s not how I work. Growth isn’t for the fearful. As my buddy Dan Martell says… What are you afraid of? Success? 📌 If you have customers and things to sell them, you’re sitting on a goldmine. 📩 Hit me up if you want help unlocking that revenue in Q2. 🚫 If you’re afraid, don’t bother. ~ Lincoln .... |

Trying to get customers to execute perfectly when they don't have experience, expertise, or even the desire to do so. Yet, we've designed our entire operation and organization to try to make this work. We've created a profession and discipline around this. That's insane if you think about it. I remember way back in 2012 when I was working with email marketing platforms. Customers would churn from one provider to another looking for better results. But the problem wasn't the platform. It was...
