Unicorn Bakery - For the World's Most Ambitious Founders & Teams

Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs): For clearer processes and better team goal achievement - Blake Hutchison, Flippa


Listen Later

Blake Hutchison has a different view of the company: His years of sales experience now help him keep an eye on the problem at Flippa, just as they do at other companies: Where is the strategy hiccuping, where are SOPs not quite optimized, and where do you need to tweak things to hit the target?

What you'll learn:

  • How does the leadership style differ for a sales-savvy CEO versus a product-savvy CEO?
  • What SOPs are helpful for my company?
  • What should a sustainable and stable strategy look like in a startup?
  • As a founder, when should you include Sales as a relevant topic in your planning?

    (00:02:12) How did you get into the venture world and Flippa?

    (00:04:56) How do you analyze a company and any challenges within it - and how do you not lose touch with the team?

    (00:11:18) What do you recommend for a sustainable strategy in the company and where do you see the value of a simple strategy vs. DeepDive?

    (00:19:22) What do you recommend as operational processes and SOPs and where do the latter have their flaws?

    (00:26:41) When do you repeat the internal sprint to achieve goals when you realize that you need to work deeper here and there?

    (00:32:03) You're a CEO with sales experience and not your typical product visionary. How would you say that influences your leadership style?

    (00:35:04) What do you recommend to founders: When should they include sales as a topic in their planning?
