Many MSMEs assign sales responsibility — but never clearly define sales ownership. That subtle gap creates confusion, finger-pointing, and unstable revenue performance.

In this episode, we examine the structural difference between ownership and responsibility in sales — and why defining this distinction changes accountability, culture, and forecasting clarity.

This reflection helps founders realign authority, accountability, and performance governance.

In this episode, we examine the hidden risks of personality-driven sales — and why replication, forecasting, and team confidence suffer when systems are absent.

This reflection helps founders identify whether their revenue engine is structured or personality-dependent.

Many MSME founders believe that hiring a Sales Manager will automatically bring order to sales chaos. But in reality, the role often inherits confusion instead of fixing it.

This reflection helps founders distinguish between role confusion and system absence — a difference that determines whether scale is possible.

Delegating sales feels like the natural next step for a growing MSME. But when structure is missing, delegation almost always collapses.

In this episode, we examine why sales delegation fails repeatedly — not because teams are incapable, but because founders delegate the wrong things at the wrong time.

This reflection explores what gets handed over too early, what stays centralized too long, and how clarity in sequencing makes all the difference.

In this episode, we explore one of the most dangerous yet invisible traps in MSME growth — when the founder becomes the company’s best salesperson.

What begins as strength slowly becomes structural dependency. Revenue flows, but systems do not form. Teams operate, but ownership does not transfer.

This episode unpacks why founder-led sales success often creates long-term fragility — and what must shift before scale.

In this episode, Abanibhusan (Abani) Bera reflects on why sales confusion in MSMEs is often misdiagnosed as a motivation or discipline problem — and how advice that urges founders to “push harder” can quietly worsen stress, instability, and decision fatigue.

If you are an MSME founder who has tried motivating yourself or your team repeatedly — only to find sales still feels messy and unpredictable — this episode offers clarity on what the business may actually be asking for beneath the surface.

This is not a discussion about motivation, positive thinking, or pushing harder.It is a calm, founder-to-founder reflection on the difference between episodic revenue and structural predictability, and why confidence does not come from one good month — it comes from clarity that repeats.

If you are an MSME founder who closes deals but still feels uneasy — worried about slippage, pressure, and “what if next month doesn’t work” — this episode offers a grounded lens to understand what that tension is really signalling beneath the surface.
