This time our guest is Arttu Hujanen – the CEO and Sales Director of SuperApp. In our conversation, we discuss how he found his way to entrepreneurship and the entrepreneurship scene in Finland - how it’s changed throughout the years and where it’s heading. Arttu also shares his tips on how to manage time more efficiently, what it takes to be good at sales, and explains how they’ve adapted these values at SuperApp (pssst find out about their innovative way to recruitment). Last but not least – Arttu’s passion for sales – having lived in Germany and Hong Kong, Arttu describes the differences in sales processes over the seas and how the international experience has helped him the most in the role of CEO. So, tune in!
Key Takeaways:
*How to juggle all the tasks you have? Arttu shares his favorite tip – rather than conducting a to-do list, he marks the tasks in a calendar that way, blocking specific times for specific tasks.
*Be ready for change – nothing ever goes according to plan, and if it does – remember, the world itself changes!
*Be a good listener! Sales is about helping. If you don’t know potential customers' situation, their desires, and challenges – it’s impossible to help them.
*One of the ways to educate yourself about a particular topic is by finding a person who knows that topic you want to learn about and simply asking them for a quick chat!
*If you’re ready to handle uncertainty, then there’s no reason why you couldn’t succeed as an entrepreneur!
