Our Proven Interim Commercial Leadership Methodology Framework
1. Plan & Review
Our focus is always to get going and provide benefits fast, but it is vital that a time-boxed, short-stage review is undertaken to plan the sales focus. This allows ‘quick wins’ to be identified in sector and targets, based on need, solution fit, known contacts and budget. If time allows at this stage, we also look at critical enhancements to improve conversion through the sales funnel, in areas such as marketing.
2. Quick Win Focus
Using the output of the review cycle we ‘roll-up our sleeves’ and hunt and develop new business. Prioritising efforts based on the planning stage, and then from feedback during sales activity. Focusing on driving rapid conversion through the sales funnel, while protecting the brand profile, and providing best-practice examples to other members of the sales function. Engendering change as needed.
3. Enhancement
In parallel and from market feedback, we review key functions that can affect sales conversion; identifying improvements in marketing, partnerships, product, systems, engineering and teams. Working with senior leadership to roadmap and effect necessary changes to improve the overall commercial effectiveness.
4. Handover
Our final proof of success is an enhanced and successful client sales team. Where we are able to handover elegantly.
