Why Team Culture Could Be The Missing Metric You Can Use To Grow Your Business
How do you grow your business?
We hear about strategies to market your business better, building funnels that convert people into customers…
We know that we have to build our list, build the relationship with the people who sign up for our various free resources.
But what about team culture? Is it possible that the culture we create just by who we hire and how we work…can that lead to business growth too?

Our guest on the podcast today is Josh Anderson who’s got experience with big development and sales teams at Microsoft and smaller, scrappier startups in the Seattle area.
Josh believes that culture could be the hidden metric companies are only starting to pay attention to…and how you can start implementing practices now even if you haven’t hired one person yet.
