Why Your Accidental Sales Process is a Disaster Waiting to Happen

Is your revenue based on luck instead of a repeatable system? Dennis Collins, Leah Bumphrey, and Paul Boomer tackle the fear that keeps founders up at night: the realization that their sales process is really just a collection of random activities held together by hope.

If you feel like you're "one bad quarter away from disaster," this episode is for you. We break down how to move from an accidental sales process to an on-purpose framework that creates real groundedness for leaders.

In this episode:

[02:33] The "Accidental" Process — every business has a process, but if you haven't defined it, it's probably a crappy one based on luck rather than strategy

[06:04] Reverse Engineering Success — Leah's "easy fix" for documenting your de facto process by working backward from your last successful sale

[06:56] Accountability vs. Consequences — why owners confuse holding people accountable with simply enforcing punishments, and how to close that communication gap

[17:38] The "Meeting After the Meeting" — why mandating change without buy-in leads to revolts at the local coffee shop

[30:27] The Growth Mindset — why the best sales processes are frameworks that allow for individual art, not cookie-cutter scripts
