Don’t Be Pushy. Be Helpful.

THE LEAN LESSON
Nobody wants to be “sold to.”
But everyone loves to be helped.
When I stopped chasing leads and started helping them, sales grew organically.
I offered:
Actionable advice in public
Custom responses in DMs
Free resources (without a catch)
I gave people space to decide—while staying top of mind with real value.
The mindset shift?
Don’t “close a deal.”
Help someone solve a problem.
The more helpful you are, the more trustworthy you become.
And trust sells better than pressure—every time.
