So my advice to founders is build the machine first before you build the team, figure out what you can automate, figure out where the bottlenecks are and what’s broken, and then add humans on top of that to get through those bottlenecks.

它增长得快得多。事实证明,大多数人只是不想和销售员交谈,我们面向中型市场 SMB 的自助服务业务增长远远高于重销售的企业业务。

It grew so much faster. It turns out most people just didn’t want to talk to a salesperson, and our mid-market SMB sort of self-serve business was much higher growth than our heavy enterprise business.

一开始我们完全被入站线索淹没了,我知道这听起来像个香槟酒问题,但当时只有我和四个销售代表,我们每天收到一万个入站线索。

So in the beginning, we were just completely overwhelmed with inbound, which I know sounds like such a champagne problem, but it was me and four sales reps, and we were getting 10,000 inbound a day.

因为九个月后我们终于发布企业版产品时,几乎每一家我去谈的公司都说:可你们从来没回复过我。然后我就出去买了 Microsoft Copilot。

Because when we finally did launch our enterprise product nine months later, almost every company I went out and talked to said, well, you never got back to me. And I went out and I brought Microsoft Copilot.

但无论你做什么,都不要把买家打发走去做事然后等他回来——那样你会彻底失去对销售周期的控制,而且一切都会变慢。

But whatever you do, don’t send your buyer away to do something and wait for them to come back because you lose total control of the sales cycle and it makes everything take longer.

说到这里我要说:只要还能抵制,就尽量别急着冲上游市场——一旦拿到大客户,他们会说我可以在你身上花一百万、一千万美元,你会很想把整个业务都围绕他们来调整。

On that note, I will say, avoid the pull-up market as long as you can resist it, because once you get a big customer, they’ll come and they’ll say, I can spend a million dollars, 10 million dollars with you, and it’s very tempting to want to orient your whole business around that.
