Just about every business I’ve ever helped had a foundational problem associated with getting new customers. We all need and want more leads. More is always better.

Be a millionaire. What? You’re not already a millionaire? Loser.
All the cool kids are millionaires. They’ve had a killer IPO or acquisition. Banking millions.
That’s true success, achievement and mastery. If you’ve not yet pulled that off, then you’ve got a lot of work to do. Catch up. Get with the program.
Or not.
Truth is, most of us can live the life of our dreams (not the wildest variety perhaps, but still dreams) for $150,000 a year or less.

Minimalism, minimum viable product (Eric Ries, The Lean Startup), a WOW factor and the 37 Signals‘ approach to providing value…it’s all here in today’s show.
Quite frequently I find myself wanting less. But like you, I want what I want. Sometimes it’s hard to find. Case in point, Bible software for Mac. I’ve owned a variety of Bible software through the years and have been dissatisfied with everything built for the Mac. It’s overkill. I want simple, useful…valuable.
What about your career, or your business? Are you piling on features, all the while thinking you’re piling on the value?
