Sales is the lifeblood of any business, If a business is not making money you should get rid of it, I see a lot of business owners sticking to unprofitable business way too long instead of pivoting and doing something else, when starting out a new business the first thing you should focus on is sales.

How can you get someone to pay for your service or product, do not rely on your friends or family because they might patronize your business out of love, they are not a good idea to use to find out whether a business works or not.

Go sell to stranger and if they buy, you have a good business else you're better off ditching it for something else, you should be aggressive towards your first sale to avoid wasting time.

The first thing to do when you want to make a sale is to spot and attend to potential customers who are dealing with a problem that is imminent and can sustain against the solutions you offer for the time being. Try to take care and investigate the current customer base of yours that will help you to understand the buying motivation and pains as well. Next, focus your marketing efforts around this awareness stage, and sales efforts on the prospects who experience the same challenge. By dealing sensibly with what your clients are primarily concerned about and offer them an immediate solution, you reinforce the feeling of urgency and get a faster sale.

You make a strong point. Sales really are the core of any successful business, and it's easy to see why sticking with an unprofitable venture can be a waste of time. The best way to test your business idea is to see if strangers are willing to pay for it—if they do, you’re on the right track.

Friends and family might buy from you out of loyalty, but their support doesn’t always reflect a sustainable business model. If you're looking to build a solid team, contact the guys from RevPilots.
