Our job starts with understanding how sales, marketing, customer success, and finance work together and share data. Every company is unique and needs to have the right balance of infrastructure and flexibility. But, regardless of your current size, your organization needs usable data and visibility into your pipeline so you can determine what is working and where you need to pivot. From there, we update your commission plans, data collection, processes, tools, and strategy that you need to succeed.
We have had the great privilege of managing and learning from some of the best revenue teams in both private and public companies over the years. Our approach focuses on initially understanding the products, market, sales motion, processes, and capabilities of your team. From there, we work together to understand and improve your pipeline, structure commissions, plan hiring for the next two years in relation to your cost and revenue goals, and ensure your reps are using data that is relevant to the business, all while avoiding data bloat.
