Sales vs Wealth

Hey Savages!! Wassup!!


So I have that question keeps rolling in my mind about the power of sales towards making a fortune!!


And my question is how far do you think that having a strong sales team impacts Wealth and Success of the richest people on the planet like Elon musk and Jeff Bezos..??


Is it actually the power of sales people they have what makes them so rich or mainly some other factors just like investments, stock-market, etc...!!!


Appreciate it Savages!!!

Jeffrey is rich because he is created a powerful brand and ability to get an product anywhere in 2 days.

Outside of AWS I donโ€™t really think he has much of sales staff

This. The retail side of Amazon sells itself.

Strong sales teams may have contributed to them becoming rich, but wealth is a whole other level.

I mean... Jeff Bezos got rich by creating a business empire. Don't know if you can chalk that up to salespeople.

Elon is another story...

AWS is where a majority of the money is made not the retail side lol.

Yes, but the retail business was the foundation. If I recall correctly AWS was created to support e-commerce and they decided to commercialize it.

There are a lot of different factors playing into the off the charts success of the world's richest people. A lot of times revolutionary ideas sell themselves

That was a paradigm shift, not so much sales, but normally, yes. Sales makes things go vroom

The majority of ultra-wealthy understand how to be great operators. Sales is just a part of the process, albeit a big part.
