Why 250 B2B Launches Taught Grady Teske That Founders Are Selling Wrong
Q: With a new SaaS offering, how would you guide a founder who needs help with marketing and getting customers?
Start by creating a scalable system around a primary focus, hire or assemble a small, tight team, and ensure you document processes and learnings so the system can be transferred and scaled in-house.
