How to Make Faster Business Decisions Without All the Data | Decision-Making for Leaders & Entrepreneurs

Most business owners, leaders, and entrepreneurs don't struggle because they make bad decisions — they struggle because they wait too long to make them.

In this episode of SoTellUs Time, we break down how to make faster, smarter business decisions even when you don't have all the data. The truth is, you'll almost never have perfect information — and waiting for certainty often costs more than making the wrong call.

If you've ever delayed hiring, pricing changes, marketing decisions, promotions, or system upgrades because you wanted "one more report" or "a little more clarity," this episode is for you.

We cover proven decision-making frameworks used by high-level leaders, CEOs, and fast-growing companies to move with confidence, reduce bottlenecks, and create momentum — without reckless guessing.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

• Why waiting for perfect data is dangerous for growth

• How indecision silently kills momentum and confuses teams

• The 70% Rule for knowing when you have enough information

• How to separate reversible vs irreversible decisions

• Simple decision frameworks you can use immediately

• Why action creates clarity faster than waiting

• How great leaders build confidence in their decisions over time

This episode is especially powerful for:
✔ Business owners
✔ Entrepreneurs
✔ CEOs & founders
✔ Managers & team leaders
✔ Anyone feeling stuck in decision paralysis

Key Takeaway: Speed plus adjustment beats slow and perfect almost every time.
