Manage episode 340910010 series 3356588
Great businesses thrive because of one thing...Sales. Yes, all those other things are great, but unless you can close the deal, it means nothing. You could have the best marketing team in the world, you could have the best investors come to your business...
BUT...
if you can’t convert all of the wonderful marketing leads into sales...you’ve got yourself a problem. And you can have some great people invest in your company, but one day they will be looking for a payout, and if you don’t have sales...
Ben Margolis, Principal advisor of Genseed, saw that a lot of climate tech companies had great ideas, they were receiving a lot of money, but they weren’t converting...they weren’t closing the deal.
So he decided to do something about it and has created a consultancy where he helps green tech companies close the deal.
I caught up with Ben to learn exactly what it takes to close the deal for climate tech companies, and if your climate tech company could use a sales boost, make sure to watch this interview all the way through.
