The Status Quo Battle
Corey Quinn
Founder, Deep Specialization™
40-60% of deals end in 'no decision.' Agency growth means overcoming inertia—make inaction more costly than change to win against human nature.
Everyone obsesses over competitor websites and marketing.
But here's the truth: Your biggest competitor is inertia.
The breakdown:
40-60% of deals end in "no decision"
People fear change more than they desire improvement
Your job isn't to be better - it's to make staying the same painful
Next time you lose a deal to "we'll think about it" - remember: You're not fighting competitors. You're fighting human nature.
Make the cost of inaction greater than the cost of change.
