It's Day 5 of the Double Your Revenue Challenge, and in today's episode, Donald Miller challenges you to call some of your leads and ask them to buy. It might be awkward and uncomfortable – but it gets easier with practice! And… people aren't going to buy unless you ask them to. Tune in now to learn how to ask for the sale!

Is your website helping your business – or hurting it? The truth is, potential customers go to your website and make a decision within seconds about whether or not you can help them. That's why your website must pass the "grunt test." Unfortunately, most business' websites don't pass this test. And if your website doesn't pass the grunt test… you're losing sales!
In today's episode, we continue our 2-week series on the Double Your Revenue Challenge. For Challenge #3, Donald Miller wants you to put your website to the grunt test. He explains that even the most primitive thinker (like a caveman) should be able to look at your website and know these 3 things within seconds: 1) What you do 2) How it will make his life better 3) What he needs to do in order to get it. Does your website pass the test? Tune in to today's episode to find out!
