“People vote with dollars. A lot of people are willing to give you their feedback, but an ultimate vote and comes down to dollars. That’s why it’s important to sell first.” Brice Gump
Sales and advertising are a huge part of running any business. Obviously these two things go hand in hand, but it can be tricky when advertising doesn’t always lead to sales.
In this episode, Brice and Mike chat about how selling is the ultimate goal. They discuss the psychological barriers that need to be overcome in order to make a sale and how advertising on its own often isn’t enough. They discuss the role of advertising and how it is often about data collection as much as it is about driving sales.
Lots of great nuggets of information in this episode. Be sure to tune in! Check out the show notes below to follow along.
