In this episode of Raising The Bar Podcast, Allison talks with Andrew Cass.
We’ve all been there: Business is running along smoothly, and then, all of a sudden – a major problem!
This week’s guest, Andrew Cass, provides some great guidance for avoiding this scenario.
His advice, ‘Don’t expect what you don’t inspect’, should always be top of mind:
· when creating processes
· when managing your sales team (he got great tips on HOW to do this)
· when prioritizing what to work on next (this might be the most important thing you do)
Andrew has grown three seven-figure businesses and mentored multiple others, and he finds great pleasure in digging into a business to find small hinges that can create significant changes.
And, if you’re looking for a way to manage ALL of your marketing from ONE central platform – without losing your mind – then his newest venture, Pipeline Pro, (https://gopipelinepro.com/) is going to change your business life!
