No wishes or prayers will bring sales. It’s now a case of making your accounts work smarter.

  • Just one or two customer accounts to achieve all your sales target?
  • No customers, just a list of names to cold call and break into?
  • Only a few accounts that just do not spend at the level that meets your target?
  • A sales target that has risen two-fold and a customer base that has shrunk?

These are just a few of the problems facing sales teams now that our markets have tightened following successive years of poor investment and low stock market yields.

However, as a sales team you still have to reach targets no excuses allowed. It’s now a matter of marketing and selling dynamically, creating a new way forward to penetrate business prospects and client accounts.

Is your company experiencing any of the following situations?

  • Operating within a tightening marketplace.
  • Increase activity from competitors.
  • Need to sell and market more effectively back into your existing customer base.
  • Lack of tactical support from your marketing function.
  • Require a better understanding and in depth business intelligence from your target accounts.
  • Marketing propositions and messaging reside at a high level and are disconnected from the sales arena.
  • Operating strategic solution selling techniques but are struggling to open up initial opportunities.
  • A need for more qualified leads.
