“You need more sales”

Do you always hear that ringing in your head as a business owner?

My guest in this episode, the brilliant Alex Thompson, went through exactly the same thing building his email marketing business.

Alex found that making 2 massive shifts helped him to scale like never before. Outsourcing and saying no to work that didn’t fit with what he wanted. He shares what finally made him shift from doing it all himself. That meant no more work at 4am on the weekend or missing picking his kids up from school.

He also delves into the challenges he has had in finding the right people for his team. Which now includes six writers, and he has doubled his client base by focusing on his strengths.

So, listen up because this is advice that works!
