Buyers Are Bullsh*t | Business is Bullsh*t

We made it to episode 10.  Honestly, we weren't sure we'd make it this far. But here we are. Still talking. Still calling out nonsense. And this time, we're tackling bad buyers—the ones who make business miserable.  The puppy kickers. The worst humans. You know the type: the ones who think "partner" means "someone I can boss around." Who treat vendors like disposable napkins or who have mastered the art of ghosting until they need something ASAP. Some are clueless. Some are just straight-up awful. Either way, bad buyers hurt their own businesses more than they realize. In this episode, we dig into: - The power dynamics behind buying and selling (and why some people turn into tyrants) - The difference between clueless buyers vs. truly bad actors - How automated procurement and RFPs are ruining everything - Why courtesy in business isn't optional if you want to win long-term Plus, we throw in some personal pet peeves (looking at you, people who think ignoring emails is a power move). If you've been a bad buyer—don't worry, there's still time to change. Jon did. And if you've dealt with bad buyers—welcome to the club. If you like our BS, subscribe.
