Is Your Sales Organization Overdue For An Overhaul?

by blackwoodimpact

When your company is ready to move to its next significant level of success, that is the perfect time to reevaluate the systems and organizations at work inside your business. While all teams labor together towards your revenue goals, your Sales team is the all-important front-line of new customer acquisition and fresh profits.

The colloquial saying, “What got you where you are can’t take you where you’re going,” is certainly applicable to making quantum leaps in business. If you truly want to shift your status from “small” to “mid-sized” or from “mid-sized” to “enterprise,” it will require you to audit your Sales organization. You will need to scrutinize everything from your processes to your people, to your market positioning strategies. Blackwood Impact Group assists teams of all sizes with appraising and appropriately resetting their Sales group.

What Is A Sales Assessment?

A Sales Assessment is a comprehensive evaluation of your entire sales organization. The goal is to identify the systems, strategies, and staff that will be crucial for steering the company in its newly redefined direction.

As the foundation of Blackwood Impact Group’s Sales Assessment service, we examine your current management framework. We ask probing questions about the way you administrate data, how you track your team’s results, and your sales methodologies, among others.

Your go-to-market strategies that your “boots-on-the-ground” team employs has a direct effect on the revenue your company can generate. As such, this is another crucial, high-value area we evaluate for you. Applying the right strategy can dramatically increase your closed sales without changing much else.

Finally, having the right people who are in alignment with the company’s goals is priceless. Blackwood Impact group can help you determine which of your team members are performing in their right roles or who might need to be reassigned so the team can operate at their maximum potential. Individualized assessments aid in these determinations.
