Sound familiar?

You built the business. Now you're managing every sale.

When you're the owner and the de facto sales manager, sales leadership can pull you away from running the company.

01Follow-ups fall through

Leads, proposals, and open opportunities go untouched without someone driving next steps.

02Your team needs direction

Salespeople are busy, but expectations, coaching, and consistent measurement are missing.

03You're stuck in the middle

You're handling escalations, forecasting, and performance questions instead of focusing on growth.

What we do

Practical sales management. Not another binder of advice.

Interim Sales Leadership

Keep the team moving while you're hiring a permanent manager, opening a new territory, or navigating a transition.

Outsourced Sales Management

Weekly sales meetings, one-on-one coaching, pipeline oversight, performance scorecards, and owner reporting.

Sales Systems & AI-Ready Processes

Build follow-up scripts, repeatable workflows, CRM visibility, and carefully reviewed AI-assisted outreach and marketing processes.

A modern approach to sales leadership

We don’t just coach your team. We build the systems that help it perform.

A great sales process should keep working when the owner steps away. We combine people leadership with usable technology, process documentation, and practical automation.

Sales playbooks & scripts

Discovery questions, qualification checklists, objection handling, proposal follow-up, and team-ready sales guides.

CRM & automation

Pipeline stages, clear responsibilities, activity dashboards, automated reminders, and lead-routing ideas that fit your current tools.

AI-assisted marketing

Optional AI-supported drafting for emails, outreach sequences, lead research, and campaign testing—always reviewed by a human and tailored to your audience.

Right-sized for small businesses. We work with your existing tools first. New software, marketing spend, and specialist integrations are scoped separately. We do not promise that AI alone will generate leads or sales.
Prospecting and field sales

We understand sales beyond a screen.

From door-to-door prospecting and cold calls to relationship-based B2B selling, we help teams turn outreach into disciplined, repeatable activity. The objective is better conversations, more consistent follow-up, and a team that can prospect confidently.

01 / FIELD PROSPECTINGDoor-to-door & face-to-face selling

Territory planning, opening conversations, handling objections professionally, and developing a practical follow-up rhythm for field representatives.

02 / OUTBOUNDCold calling & appointment setting

Call frameworks, discovery questions, voicemail and email sequences, lead qualification, and coaching that helps teams make better use of each conversation.

03 / COMMUNICATIONSales psychology & NLP-informed techniques

Practical coaching on active listening, rapport, questioning, reframing, and language choices. Drawing on training in neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) and sales psychology to strengthen practical sales conversations.

Especially relevant for owner-led businesses using outside sales, canvassing, appointment setters, or small B2B sales teams. Outreach practices should follow applicable consumer-protection and contact rules.

Our six-part framework

From owner-dependent selling to repeatable performance.

Our practical approach helps owners build the structure, visibility, and coaching cadence their team needs. Here's what that looks like.

The Path to Predictable Sales Growth: six stages—assess current performance, clarify lead flow, build a repeatable sales process, strengthen tools and visibility, coach and hold the team accountable, and improve sales performance.
Our sales leadership framework for growing, owner-led businesses.
For profitable, growing owner-led businesses

Strong business. No formal sales playbook yet?

Not every owner needs an outsourced sales manager. If you are generating revenue but still figuring out how to prospect, qualify leads, follow up and coach your first salespeople, start with a lighter, more affordable program.

Founder-friendly starter tier

Sales Foundations Coaching

Practical guidance and tools for an owner who needs to build better sales habits and systems, without paying for ongoing team management.

  • Kickoff sales health check and a prioritized action plan
  • Two private 45-minute coaching calls each month
  • One customized sales script or follow-up sequence in the first month
  • Simple pipeline tracker and weekly self-review scorecard
  • Optional AI-assisted message drafting and workflow recommendations, reviewed for your business

Best fit: A profitable business with an owner-led sales function and 0–1 salespeople. Specialized advertising campaigns, custom software setup and direct staff management are not included.

30-Day Sales Leadership & Systems Sprint

A focused starting point for owner-led teams of 2–3 salespeople.

Included in your first 30 days
  • Sales team and pipeline diagnostic with priorities
  • Weekly sales accountability meeting (4 total)
  • Two one-to-one coaching sessions
  • Practical sales playbook: pipeline stages and follow-up scripts
  • CRM action plan and one agreed, simple workflow improvement
  • Owner scorecard and a 60-day improvement roadmap

Clear scope: Includes four scheduled weekly team meetings, two individual coaching sessions, and the defined systems deliverables listed above. Daily supervision, extra coaching sessions, full CRM implementations, and ongoing management are outside this 30-day sprint and can be quoted separately.

Defined-deliverables assurance

We agree on the scope before starting. If a specified deliverable is missed, we complete it at no extra service charge within an agreed correction period. This does not guarantee additional revenue or sales volume.

Need ongoing sales management instead of a 30-day sprint?

The $1,495 sprint is a focused implementation engagement—not month-long day-to-day supervision. If you need someone to actively oversee your salespeople throughout the month, manage their weekly execution, provide additional coaching, and maintain accountability over time, we offer a separate ongoing sales leadership retainer. Ongoing management starts at $2,250/month, with responsibilities, meeting frequency, and availability agreed in advance. Request an ongoing management consultation.
