But one thing they all have in common is a strong foundational team. If you have the right team, it’s easier to set your business up for success. Eric Hann is an expert at helping early-stage companies find their go-to-market fit. As the Senior Director of Marketing at Order, Eric has learned what makes a startup team great—and what to avoid. In this episode, Eric shares how to build a demand generation team and program from scratch, why you need curious team members, and how to lower your employees’ fears of failure.Show TopicsCreate an environment that doesn’t fear failureStay grounded in what’s repeatableLearn the rules of the gameBuild your startup around curious peopleHire people who ask questionsBe a generalistFollow a situational leadership modelDe-risk new challengesEvaluate your processesMake your own experiencesShow Links Check out OrderFollow Eric Hann on LinkedInConnect with Omniscient Digital on LinkedIn or TwitterPast guests on The Long Game podcast include: Morgan Brown (Shopify), Ryan Law (Animalz), Dan Shure (Evolving SEO), Kaleigh Moore (freelancer), Eric Siu (Clickflow), Peep Laja (CXL), Chelsea Castle (Chili Piper), Tracey Wallace (Klaviyo), Tim Soulo (Ahrefs), Sean Blanda (Crossbeam), Ilona Abramova (AppSumo), and many more.Some interviews you might enjoy and learn from:020: Spark Creativity and Generate Memorable Content with Ryan Law (Animalz)041: Actionable Tips and Secrets to SEO Strategy with Dan Shure (Evolving SEO)045: Building Competitive Marketing Content with Sam Chapman (Aprimo)009: The Long Game Podcast: Building Communities, Teams and Companies through Marketing with Sabel Harris019: Peak Performing, High-Earning Freelance Writing with Michael Keenan (Co-Founder at Peak Freelance)028: Purpose-Driven Leadership & Building a Content Team with Ty Magnin (UiPath)Also, check out our Kitchen Side series where we take you behind the scenes to see how the sausage is made at our agency:015: Should You Hire Writers or Subject Matter Experts?017: How Do Growth and Content Overlap?027: Is Organic Traffic the Best Traffic?Connect with Omniscient Digital on social:Twitter: @beomniscientLinkedin: Be OmniscientListen to more episodes of The Long Game podcast here: https://beomniscient.com/podcast/
