▸▸ Get My New Book (Buy Back Your Time): https://bit.ly/3pCTG78 24 months ago I had one of the craziest periods of business. Several things happened and I just freaked out. Out of frustration, I decided to go on Slack and I wrote out a chat post. Probably should have slept on it right? Nope. In that moment, I essentially told the whole company: “This is my vision, this is what we're doing, we're making it about the customers. And if you're not on board, I will pay you $15,000 To quit immediately.” I hit post. But here's the problem… Some of the people we wanted on the team took my offer! Why? Because they were just fed up with the drama. You see, I woke up one day, and I realized that I didn't enjoy going to work and I had a culture problem. I didn't even want to go to meetings. And I started figuring out there were some people on the team that shouldn't have been there. Here’s the deal C players will cost you your A players. This lasted for about six months. And it put me into a tailspin. I was sad and I'm not a sad person. I was having anxiety problems. I was a little depressed. And I'm on vacation in Costa Rica with the family and I was on my phone pacing on the patio pacing up and down the pool area. So after losing more than 30% of my team I finally called my business partner, Matt. He and I own a venture capital firm called High Speed Ventures. I asked him if he’d come over to SaaS Academy for the next six months and maybe help me fix this. His response: “I was wondering how long you were going to wait before you asked me that.” What I learned over the next four months is what I want to share with you today because it allowed us to build the company to almost $20+ million in the next 12 months. And we built one of the highest culture NPS scores we've ever achieved. These are the 3 things that changed everything for me. Instagram: @danmartell Twitter: @danmartell
