Comments on: How Moz Built A $35M Company Without A Single Salesperson https://www.groovehq.com/blog/rand-fishkin-moz-interview Sat, 09 Jan 2021 09:50:13 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.5.14 By: Da Silva https://www.groovehq.com/blog/rand-fishkin-moz-interview#comment-8918 Sat, 09 Jan 2021 09:50:13 +0000 http://www.groovehq.com/blog/?p=253#comment-8918 Good salesmen would make him much more money. A person reading a blog post is not that interested in buying a moz package. A salesman can reach quickly a qualified person and make large volumes sales. Salesmen would be more interested in joining a company if you give them a percentage of the sold packages of a monthly basis. Moz is selling monthly packages and they can do that too.

Thank you Rand for sharing. The stress and anxiety has also been a major factor in my health and well being as well and have tossed the idea around of THC laced foods. Rand, I was amazed how far you came with the little knowledge and experience you stated. Kudus to you for that! Remember to remember that when life seemingly hands you shit. Remember what you feel inside reflects the environment around you. I could really relate to the article because I despise being a salesman so I am building my business like the article title suggests. Thank you Alex. Sorry about the experience you had with the truffle Rand. Perhaps to big of a dose??? Rand, I do believe your solid belief on how a business should be contributes to it’s success and it is to bad that you cannot be a mentor to me but if you ever write a book on the successes and pitfalls I will be sure to buy it!

By the way I am one of your customers at Moz and am happy for the results.

I like that you were able to tell it like a story. I really liked Rand’s marketing model “Give it away for free”. A fantastic model for SaaS. Although I would like to hear of how that works with businesses who sell services.

A sales man is not someone forcing you to buy a cheap product you don’t want. The best sales people are those that care enough to make sure people get the products & services they need. And Rand you are a sales man, because you cared enough to make sure people got a service and product they desperately needed.

Love all the aspects of it. Perfect fun and open culture at MOZ back at the beginning. We have a little bit similar to that like going on beer or concerts or bike trips together. All at almost no cost. The interaction and trust is immeasurable. Looking forward to more interviews like this Alex.

I’m a big fan of Rand. Heard his story before including the wonderful interview he had with Andrew Warner. Yet, your story took it to a new level for me and for Rand himself, I’m sure. Keep them coming, Alex. Thanks.

You don’t seem like an extrovert. Do you feel pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone publicly has been instrumental to your success?

I was actually researching how to get traction from Linkedin posting… I guess the trick is still “be interesting to the reader”. As for Rand – I think I have heard of his wife, Geraldine (*ducks over tin foil hat*). I look at Moz’s fortunes closer that almost any other business… probably in part because the numbers are so openly accessible… You have to admire that transparency, but it must freak investors out! Anyway, Rand – you are a Tour de Force.

I really appreciate the way you share everything at Moz in a transparent manner (I’m a blog subscriber).

It would be great if you could share that one customer acquisition channel, apart from inbound marketing, which it working for you most.

Thanks again.
