Blake Hutchison has a different view of the company: His years of sales experience now help him keep an eye on the problem at Flippa, just as they do at other companies: Where is the strategy hiccuping, where are SOPs not quite optimized, and where do you need to tweak things to hit the target?

What you'll learn:

How does the leadership style differ for a sales-savvy CEO versus a product-savvy CEO?
What SOPs are helpful for my company?
What should a sustainable and stable strategy look like in a startup?
As a founder, when should you include Sales as a relevant topic in your planning?
