1/ Sales is a lot like golf. You can make it so complicated as to be impossible or you can simply walk up and hit the ball. I've been leading and building sales organizations for almost 20 years and my advice is to walk up and hit the ball.

Thread 🧵
1/

2. So all that domain authority you've been building is useless for you.
They own that too because they purposefully don't let you have your own domain.
