𝐁𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐦𝐲 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 you can see that I don't have to be a NASA scientist to know how some things work and how some things don't work.

By combining group training, 1on1 Coaching and business consulting, I help First-Time entrepreneurs and fast-growing B2B companies in the IT industry to make more sales, increase their base with new satisfied and long-term customers, increase ARPA / U and ultimately build the greatest market power and advantage - the discipline of realization.

No matter how complex B2B sales are, I believe this short definition is the best description of the same:

"Our clients just want reassurance that we know exactly what problems they are in, and what guarantees we offer to solve those problems."

Client problems that I successfully solve through a combination of Group trainings, 1on1 Coaching & Consulting:

🚩 80% of sales are realized by only 20% of salespeople

🚩 Sales results and sales team revenue resemble "Roller Coaster"

🚩 Poorly trained salespeople not only do not bring new customers/revenue to the employer but produce disappointment, frustration and complaints from customers

🚩 Salespeople continuously have a larger "excuse base" than the base of potential negotiations for the current month.

🚩 They have not developed their authenticity, they spend too much time on unqualified potential clients. they conclude the sales a little. They are stuck in a comfort zone, saying that current knowledge is enough and there are always blame others for the lack of planned results

🚩 Difficult to arrange meetings and find new sales opportunities

🚩 Very low ratio of closed sales opportunities to the amount of open negotiations/leads - how much does the sales team actually cost in the numbers of leads that do not close ...?

🚩 Continuous loss of sales opportunities on 5-6 of the same complaints (excuses-lies) of customers

🚩 Sales teams struggle to sell when they are not the cheapest

🚩 Sales poorly managed system (CRM) notes on communication with customers, and the most valuable assets of the company are missing - negotiation base and sales planning strategy

🚩 No clear goals and rules have been set - what are the rewards when the set plan is met, and what happens when the set monthly and quarterly plans and goals are not met.

🚩 There is no clear strategy for customer retention - Churn. How to successfully migrate a client from the Hunter department to the Farmer department. Acquisition sales are becoming congested with inquiries from existing customers, and they have less and less time to look for new customers.

🚩 Increasingly long sales processes that reduce efficiency. Sales results are built on the strategy of granting discounts as the main trigger for closing the sale ...

🚩 The best seller in the company is the sales manager or the owner of the company.
