EP85: Michael Bungay Stanier - Making Sacrifices For Business Success

It is rare that a person understands exactly how much they will have to forfeit while growing their business.

Michael Bungay Stanier, founder and senior partner of Box of Crayons, a training company that gives busy managers the practical tools to coach in 10 minutes or less, has some sacrifices and challenges that he faced himself.

After he was rejected by a fancy New York publisher, he decided to self-publish his book and it tripled the number of sales inquiries for his training company.

As a result, his revenue went up 82 percent.

He also took off a program that he loved from his website called, Presentation Genius, which generated $300,000 in revenue just to focus on his own brand, which is to create content around coaching skills for managers.

During this interview, you'll learn...

• How persistence will help you in building your profile

• The importance of focusing on what it is you really have to offer and validate it

• Why your strategy should be like “bullets and cannonballs”
