Startup Sales — 5 Common Sales Mistakes by Founders
August 12, 2025
Founders are responsible for the first sales a startup will make. For many founders, this is one of their very first experiences of sales and mistakes are often made.
Hello everyone. Today, we’re talking about how to get the bad jobs done. In any startup there are a bunch of tasks that are no fun and so they get deprioritized. Good examples of these jobs might be: Hiring outreach, regulatory compliance and documentation writing.
Not completing these tasks property or on time, can have a significant negative impact on your company. For example — Regulatory and accounting issues have killed dozens of well funded startups.
My advice — schedule just 15 mins on this boring task in the morning, once you get going, you will likely surprise yourself and spend much more time on it.
