Lesson #11 “How to Increase Sales or the Secret of the “Right” Market

“Don’t shoot sparrows with a cannon.” Remember this wonderful Russian proverb?

For some reason, in business we always forget about this. We pour a ton of money into advertising, inflate our staff, somehow optimize sales… but the profit comes in with a creak. “How so? What’s going on?” many people wonder.

At the same time, even the best consultants sometimes cannot help. And all because the key problem is not in the internal structure of the business (although everything is usually sad there) , but in the choice of the market in which you work.
