"Living a Revenue Culture" podcast

Stop Letting Chaos Steal 20–40% of Your Revenue

Rick McPartlin Season 2 Episode 18

In this solo episode of Living a Revenue Culture, Rick McPartlin pulls back the curtain on a painful truth: most companies are quietly losing 20–40% of their top-line revenue to pure revenue chaos—silos, rework, mixed messages, and “dumb stuff” that burns time, energy, and profit.

Rick breaks down a simple way to think about your world in three levels so you can finally take control of the part you do own: your purpose, your people, your offers, and your revenue strategy. He explains why you’ll never maximize profit until you first optimize your people and give them a low-friction context to transfer value to customers.

You’ll hear Rick talk about:

How to spot revenue chaos inside your business

The difference between big-purpose companies and mercenary ones

Why chasing “everyone” on the Bell Curve guarantees mediocre results

How a clear revenue roadmap (volume, velocity, and value) lets you grow on purpose instead of by accident

If you’re a CEO, founder, or revenue leader who suspects you’re working way too hard for the results you’re getting, this episode will help you see where the money is leaking—and what to do about it.
