Data and Analytics: Maintaining Sales Momentum Amidst Transition

Executive Summary

A Power Industry Data and Analytics company in the midst of reorganizing and growing their sales team was in transition between permanent sales leaders. While focusing on raising capital, they needed someone to maintain their company’s sales momentum and provide an operating cadence for the team.

The Big Win

Achieved record-breaking revenues over an 8-month tenure with an increase of 88% vs. the prior year.

Challenges

Solutions

Our Outsourced VP of Sales (OVPS) recruited, hired, and onboarded additional sales team members to expand the team. They instituted a cadence for the team, including 1:1 coaching sessions, sales team meetings, forecasting meetings, and quarterly business reviews and immediately rallied the sales team, infusing discipline and accountability to produce consistent results.

Sales enablement methodology and tools were rolled-out to ensure customers are hearing a consistent value proposition. CRM dashboards were built out to track activity metrics and pipeline growth. The sales team was trained on outbound  prospecting and social selling techniques to prioritize customer opportunities.

The OVPS presented at board meetings and worked closely with private equity investors to help scale the business. They trained senior company leaders on best-practices approaches for B2B sales and built the sales organization into a high-performance team, significantly improving morale. They hired and onboarded a highly-qualified permanent VP of Sales.
