Cons:
1. Selling to businesses is much harder than selling to
consumers and requires a well-seasoned salesperson to
acquire the clients. This business model seems to attract
people that are more on the technical side, they have a
huge learning curve on the marketing side and usually
fail because they dislike sales. Companies that sell SASS
products bombard their list weekly with the latest and
greatest new products. Many people on their list never
sell even one client but keep buying the products hoping
for the magic push button product which will bring
clients begging to pay them. Sorry, that’s never going to
happen, if you don’t enjoy sales, this isn’t for you!
2. Retaining clients can be a major problem.
Developing a good relationship with the clients is key.
You must perform and bring in the results they want or
you’re gone. I have a friend who lost 35 out of 37 clients
in March of 2020 because of Covid-19. Sometimes
Google or Face Book will throw a wrench in your
marketing by changing their algorithms without notice.
The result can be devastating overnight.
