A diagram to illustrate the potential of sales consultancy services and the value that a sales consultant can add.

Work on the aspects listed below to unlock missing business. If needed, use sales consultancy services to supplement your resources:

Develop a more effective sales process.
Reduce the cost of selling to improve margins.
Win more new customers.
Increase sales to existing customers.
Reduce sales staff churn.

Do you need to increase sales by 25% or more in your business or role?

If you keep doing what you are doing and make no changes and if external circumstances don't change, you will likely continue to get the same or similar results. Is it time to ask for help?

What are sales consultancy services and how can they help?

If you know what to do but don't have the time or people to work on the business, use temporary specialists to supplement your resources.

If you don't know what to do, consult specialists who do and then act on what you learn to make changes yourself or hire consultants to do the work.

Consult people who have the expertise that you need. It usually costs nothing to have a conversation. There are hundreds of pages of free expertise shared on this site. If you prefer, spend a few hours finding what you need. If you speak with us, we will ask a few questions and suggest the pages or sections of our site that can help you. If you need more advice, arrange further paid calls or ask for a quote or proposal explaining how we could help you achieve what is needed and what we would charge.

When there is no sales process:

Sales practices are inconsistent. More mistakes are made, more sales are lost, and sales targets are missed.

When sales or margins are squeezed:

Discretionary spending is curtailed, budgets are frozen or cut, and people blame each other.

When more customers are leaving than are being replaced:

Revenue and profits decline, reputation suffers, and morale evaporates.

When sales targets are missed:

Salespeople are fired, sales managers are fired, and CEOs are fired.

When staff turnover is high:

Customers are lost, costs balloon and sales targets are missed.

Is a sales consultancy worth hiring?

Do you have the expertise in-house? Can you get the work done without resorting to outside help? If you can answer 'yes' to these questions, why haven't you done the thing already?

What needs attention first? Improving how things are done; improving forethought, strategy, planning, and communication, or developing individual competence through knowledge, methods, and skills?

It can be difficult to know where to start.

If working in the job is preventing work on the job, we can make a difference by providing temporary sales consultancy services, when needed.

Improve Business Predictability

The health of a company depends on performance matching expectations yet leaders and their people are often expected to predict the results of uncertain customer decisions.

Picture of sales consultants discussing the impact of sales training.

Accurate predictions depend on reliable and repeatable lead acquisition, qualification, and conversion. If a manager's time is fully committed, a sales consultant can take on the task of developing or improving the process.

Alignment of process, market insights, marketing resources, qualification, and execution all improve performance predictability. Optimise your performance with sales consultancy services.

Anticipate Threatening Issues

In many organisations, management and leadership development is given much less attention than training for salespeople. Leaders and managers are expected to know it all and deliver results with limited or no professional support.

Issues are best dealt with before they become problematic. In an ideal world, managers anticipate problems and difficulties and prevent their occurrence, rather than be on hand to repair the damage after the event.

Continuous informal assessment supported by periodic formal assessment offers the means to head off issues before they lead to poor performance. Use our free gap assessments to identify vulnerabilities, anticipate difficulties, and test plans. Use our consultants project by project or on a fractional basis.

"No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thinking", wrote Voltaire.

Yet thinking is the hard work that precedes success. Action without a plan is random and little better than planning without taking action. Sales consultancy services can help you get things done.

If you are too close to the business, consult experts, peers, a coach, or advisers to ensure consideration of wider viewpoints.
