·Cohort-based Course
Replace unpredictability with intentionality through a focused sales strategy and an effective & consistent outbound approach.
Course overview
Focus your strategy and build your effective outbound sales engine.
Over 6 weeks, you'll be led through a step-by-step process that will focus your sales & marketing team's time, energy, and resources on prospects that drive sustainable, long-term growth rather than winning more mediocre clients who come & go. You will develop a tailored, yet repeatable approach to identify, initiate and incorporate key stakeholders in your sales process in order to build a healthy top-of-funnel.
This "live" coaching offers a hands-on transformative experience, led by a 20+ year sales expert, alongside a group of smart and driven growth leaders like yourself. The frameworks and models taught are the same techniques employed in Fortune 500, mid-market and entrepreneurial organizations.
As a growth leader, it is your responsibility to replace unpredictability with intentionality.
**************************************************
This cohort is for you if you are a growth-minded leader who wants to build, grow & scale but is frustrated with the lack of performance from your sales & marketing team.
This cohort is for you if you have a small percentage of clients who drive a large percentage of revenue. You have a high-dollar, custom or complex offering and you compete on value vs. price. You are the “rainmaker” while others have struggled to win the “right” types of clients.
This cohort is for you if you have experienced turnover in sales. You have probably overpaid for the experienced “rolodex” salesperson and have grown frustrated by the quality & quantity of meetings from junior salespeople. You have gone back & forth on wearing the sales “leader” hat and realize the only way to reach your desired future state is by scaling beyond yourself.
This cohort is for you if you have limited bandwidth within your sales & marketing team and need to maximize your time, energy & resources.
For growth-minded leaders who are looking to achieve predictable revenue and build, grow, and scale with confidence.
01
Founder Rainmakers who have won the majority of their best clients and need a sales team that is capable of winning the "right" new logos.
02
Sales Leaders who have taken the reins from the Founder Rainmaker and are responsible for building a high-performing sales engine.
