Business Review of Sales and Marketing

Are you concerned about forecasted sales revenues and/or marketing performance?

A business review of your sales and marketing provides a comprehensive look at how these two functions operate to achieve your business objectives. The insights gained from the review will assist you in aligning your teams, optimising processes, improving ROI, and ultimately driving better results.

Guaranteed to provide a road map for growth and improved profitability for your revenue-generating teams.

These are the business symptoms companies are challenged by, and leaders need to act with urgency.
  • Inconsistent revenue performance (i.e., make it, miss it, make it,
    miss it)
  • Revenue growth expectations recently increased.
  • Profitability is decreasing.
  • Unreliable pipeline/forecast reporting.
  • Recent revenue growth has been disappointing.
  • Certain types of growth have become very valuable and require focus.
  • Failed new product introductions.
  • Marketing failing to contribute directly to growth
  • Marketing expenses increasing with low ROI
  • New competitors are disrupting the industry structure.
  • Traditional routes to market losing their effectiveness.
  • Customer acquisition costs are too high.
  • Customer lifetime values are too low.
 

If you have one of these problems, then your business is distressed. If you have multiple of these points, then Intervention is required to return to delivering growth.
