Why do so many small businesses stall out around $2M in revenue?
Mar 18, 2024Why do so many small businesses stall out around $2M in revenue?
First, only 7% of small businesses ever make it past $1M in revenue. So if that's you, congrats!
I know the journey to $1M wasn't easy!
When you're at $1M in revenue, you can't afford to hire the most qualified marketing and sales team. So it's that team that will take you to $2M in sales, but that's the problem.
>> That same team will rarely get you to $5-10M.
And by the way, only 4% of the 7% listed above will ever reach $10M in revenue.
Why?
Here's the top three reasons.
#1 - Weak sales leadership
#2 - Too much of your revenue is coming from a small segment or group of customers
#3 - Your RevOps (marketing & sales) strategy is outdated
So what's the solution?
Focus on developing a RevOps playbook.
Focus on developing a RevOps roadmap.
You've heard of location, location, location?
Well in small business it's RevOps, RevOps, RevOps.
