Welcome...
Attention: Founders and Owners of Rapidly Growing Companies….
Does This Sound Familiar?
“Our salespeople should be booking more sales appointments instead of spending so much time trying to find qualified prospects.”
“Our sales people need to be more consistent at getting accounts but closing ratios are all over the map.”
“It’s taking a very long time to close sales. We should be able to do that faster somehow.”
Does This Sound Familiar? We shouldn’t have to play price negotiation
games to win a big account or give away our margin.”
“We have some accounts that don’t make money and need to be replaced with more profitable accounts.”
“We get referrals but may be we need to be getting more.”
“We can’t afford to drop the ball with prospects or clients.”
Often Companies will Treat the Symptoms Instead of the Real Problems by:1. Launching a new marketing initiative (start
a DM campaign, join a new NW group, sponsor an event etc.)
2. Hiring more sales people3. Getting more sales training
You know you need to take time to do “strategy work” and focus on growth and new ideas because no one else can do that……but it’s hard to find time when you’re running a business.
You’ve invested in marketing… but it’s been more of a scattershot approach and there is still no systematic way to generate leads.
But What’s The Real Problem?
You’ve hired good salespeople, given them a goal and they should be able to figure out how to get sales…..but they aren’t very strategic in their approach and so it’s a hit or miss scenario.
Perhaps you’ve even invested in sales training but not much has changed…. because real change happens from the top when there is 100% clarity on business strategy.
You assume you’re getting all the referrals you can...but you might be underestimating the huge potential of your network.
But What’s The Real Problem?
An unlimited marketing budget?More salespeople?
Access to more capital?
Most of the times the answer is NO
What’s The Solution?
Sustainable, profitable sales comes from having a sales strategy, structure and
system in place so you can expect consistent results from your team and
prevent the swings in sales.
What’s The Solution?
1. 100% clarity on your strategic direction that drives your daily activities to get the results you want quickly.
2. A cost effective marketing system that puts you in front of your top prospects consistently without depending on you.
3. A sales process that is consistent, builds trust, wows your prospect and converts more prospects into clients.
Here are critical elements that need to be built into your sales structure to consistently generate sales & bring in profitable accounts.
4. Sales management system to ensure that your sales team is in sync with the company’s goals. 5. Key strategic partnerships & alliances that send you prospects regularly and become an additional sales team.6. A wow service delivery process that exceeds client expectations and gets them selling you to potential clients.
Here are critical elements that need to be built into your sales structure to consistently generate sales & bring in
profitable accounts.
7. A client loyalty and retention system to transform your clients into a powerful sales force that feed your sales pipeline with referrals.8. A pricing and profitability system that keeps you profitable and eliminates the “great revenue but no profit syndrome.”
Here are critical elements that need to be built into your sales structure to consistently generate sales & bring in
profitable accounts.
Client Case Study Animation Company- Scenario Before
Key Issues: Lack of Consistency in Sales “We have 4 sales people but if Greg’s sales drop then we
have a bad month. We aren’t spending time on booking sales presentations. We’ve dropped the ball with prospects and they don’t turn
into clients. James discounts jobs and we don’t make much money on
them They are competing with one another and fighting over
prospects

Work in Progress
Celebrus Strategies works with CEOs & Owners of rapidly growing companies
($2M-$10M) who: Are way too dependent on their key
salespeople to meet aggressive sales targets Stress out at the thought of a bad month Don’t have the luxury of very large sales
teams but they need to bring in new accounts if they want to grow
I work with them to acquire and develop new accounts and expand their existing client base
without spending a lot of money on marketing. As a result, their sales team spend less time
prospecting and more time closing projects and sales grow anywhere from 33% to 167 percent.
1. Companies $2-$10M in revenue2. Established businesses3. Vendors to the Marketing function
