One question I fielded today: “We would like to know how many people to hire so we can increase sales.”
My response: “Which products do you want to sell?”
Their response: “We aren’t quite sure yet”
Me: “I can’t forecast employee headcount if you don’t know what your going to sell.”
Them: “So, can you help us figure out how many people to hire?”
