Episode 159 -YoY Growth is Slowing? — Do This!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The survival rate of brands at $1 is brutal enough. And at $10M, even more hit a wall or die. But the real problem that survivors face as they scale into eigth figures is stagnation. The grand delusion is that adding more and more retail accounts will keep the brand growing. But this is an illusion whose fragility exposes itself once deceleration begins and doesn’t reverse with new accounts. Growing past $100M and deep into the nine figures is NOT a sales game. It is a marketer’s game. But most brands need to change one thing. Have a listen and take notes. This is not material in my book.
