OneWin from FortéOne deploys a senior-level team that has improved sales results for over a hundred middle market companies to ensure that your sales processes and people are appropriate for your organization today and equipped well into the future.
A powerful growth and change mechanism for the Middle Market
Driving incremental sales growth with targeted customers requires more than just making an incremental sale. In successful sales organizations, a number of elements work together to drive profitable revenue. These include an understanding of customers’ needs, an effective targeting, prospecting, and lead generation process supported by appropriate technology, management of existing customers and referrals, account/territory planning, sales hiring and training programs, and a well-designed sales compensation model. Because all businesses are different, these components need to be designed with your customer base, markets, product categories, culture, and objectives in mind.
The design and implementation of a professional sales process with OneWin provides you with the platform to create sustainable growth and profitability in both new and current markets. Working with your people, FortéOne will conduct the data analysis, understand the opportunities in your customers and markets, assess your company’s strengths and weaknesses, and determine the processes that will deliver success in your business. This team comes equipped with decades of collective experience, along with powerful analysis tools, to help define and build a new sales model for your company.
Why your company might need OneWin.
When a Middle Market company hits a sales plateau, new thinking is needed and often this requires experience from outside the company. The sales model that worked to get them to the plateau will typically not work to break through to the new level. If you have hit this plateau, or any of the following scenarios sound familiar, your company would be a good candidate to benefit from a OneWin engagement.
Sales as an executive night job
Some of your executives maintain a substantial sales responsibility, and in some cases even maintain a book of business. Your VP of Sales, the President, or even the CEO may be the leading sales person. This creates a limiting factor for growth and puts stress on the organization by forcing an executive to divide time between leadership and sales responsibilities.A sales model highly dependent on face-to-face
The primary way that sales people prospect and manage existing accounts is with face-to-face contacts or professional networking. With the prevalence of digital contact, the limited availability of decision-makers within accounts, and more recently pandemic restrictions, companies with this model are rapidly losing touch with their customers and are not able to prospect for new customers effectively.Inadequate account and market coverage
There is no formal plan to manage and apply a limited sales capacity to existing customers and/or prospects. This typically results in low volumes of prospecting and new customer acquisition.No leverage
Sales people have a wide scope of responsibilities with limited support or tools, often left to do their own prospect list management, lead generation, product brochures and sales collateral creation, sales programs development & administration, order entry and processing, and customer service. The breadth of these tasks limits their capacity to sell.Inherent sales vulnerabilities
Sales performance is highly dependent on a small number of customers and/or sales people. This creates risk and is often accompanied by a larger base of potential customers that are neglected.No planning or forecasting
Reporting of sales prospects, or a sales pipeline, is informal and inconsistent. In cases where there is reporting, accounts stay in the pipeline for months with little to no movement, and the likelihood of closing the business is not measured. This leaves the business without a sales forecast and lacking tools to support sales coaching to build the pipeline and forecast.Broken reward systems
Current compensation programs are not driving the appropriate behavior needed to grow sales. Incentive programs do not promote new account growth and may reward salespeople based on revenue rather than profit margin, resulting in payments for customers that generate minimal profit, or in some cases losses.Lacking effective sales leadership
Salespeople are following their individual agendas, but there is little or no sales leadership including establishing strategic account targets, guidance on prospecting, monitoring of sales activity, setting and achieving sales targets, building a sales support organization, or profiling/testing and selecting appropriate personnel.A few words from OneWin clients.
