Episode notes
Specialization Equals Strategy
- Specialization is essential: without it you likely lack a coherent business strategy.
- Describe your differentiation in simple, jargon-free language that an investor or layperson can understand.

- That line forced transformative sales conversations and clarified which opportunities to pursue.
