  • Process vs Content
    Nov 20 2025
    SHOW NOTES: If you want to maximize your business growth, you need to generalize and not specialize. There may be exceptions, but generally, the more potential buyers you have the more business you'll generate. A content expert knows the "what." It may be insurance, or auto manufacture, or solar panels. You sell insurance to people to need insurance, auto manufacture skills to, well, auto manufacturers, and solar panels to people who desire it, have the capacity for it, and have a roof (or a large field). But a process expert knows the "how." It may be sales, customer service, decision making, conflict resolution, or negotiating. And these needs, this expertise, is needed cross-industrially and globally. Problem solving, for example, has three components (hear them on the recording) which are immutable, no matter what the circumstances. These process skills are often called "critical thinking skills," which are not sufficiently taught in schools nor recognized in workplaces. Hence, my highly successful career, and this podcast.

    SHOW NOTES: •Why do such a staggeringly large percentage fail? •They don't respond to inquiries when busy. •They tend to create prices based on wealth of buyer. •They don't show up, don't return calls, don't finish on time. •They don't bill in a timely manner, so cash flow is an issue. •They don't consider repairs and warranties for the buyer. •They tend to seek perfection rather than success. •They use shortcuts and blame others when they don't work. •They aren't proactive, only reactive. •They act as if their educated, wealthy customers are stupid. •They don't actively seek referrals. •They act as if the customer's ideas are absurd. Other than that, they're run wonderfully and their rate of failure is due to climate change.....
