The businesses we work with share some key attributes; they are usually very good at what they do, are focused on growth and open-minded about how to improve. However, they are often frustrated that business is not growing at a faster rate. We typically find our clients have these common issues: Sales - Overcoming the stigma of Sales/Business Development - No common language or process - Lack of good new leads - Not closing a high enough percentage of opportunities - Struggle to get decisions from prospective clients - Spending too much time on proposals and unpaid consulting - Losing out to the competition - Discounting too much / high cost of sale Management - Making the wrong hires - Sales team revolving door - Too many average performers in the business - Culture of excuse making - No clear strategy of how to grow the business - Inaccurate forecasting The first step with our clients is to find out more about their specific challenges and diagnose whether we are the right people to help.
