QUOTES:

  • “I went through and I wrote down every part of the process for onboarding, off-boarding, what happens during lead conversations, what happens when somebody becomes a customer, what happens when they move into an active opportunity. I ripped it all down and built it back up from the ashes of those flames from the previous processes.” – Blythe Brumleve
  • “I’m a process junkie, and I would not be able to figure out my prices, I would not be able to develop a stronger financial acumen, if I didn’t take all of my processes and just tear them down and start almost from like a zero-based budgeting perspective, but start as zero-base processing perspective.” – Blythe Brumleve
  • “I thought if I was giving a fair price to me 10 years ago, me then, that was good enough. And that shouldn’t be good enough. But I was creating this perception of myself and of my work and of my business, that I was cheap.” – Blythe Brumleve
  • “If you never hear from me, it’s a good thing; everything is running smoothly. If you hear from me, things are a little shaky. The problem is that my tech team does a really great job. So the clients never heard from me. And that was a gap in our communications.” – Blythe Brumleve
