Discover Your Sales Potential | Make Informed Business Decisions
There is nothing worse in business than continuously being forced look at sales results that don’t match your needs, expectations or ambitions.
Even worse is the uncertainty of knowing specifically what to do improve them without running the risk of having those sales numbers really fall off a cliff.
That’s it’s own special kind of hell, and one you won’t want to deal with for long.

A Sales Audit is the fastest way to establish a firm foundation to improve your sales results and start your journey towards building the sales and business development function you really want.
Plus, it is the simplest and easiest way to build a sales improvement plan that will engage the whole sales function (and maybe marketing! too) and you can assign accountabilities with clarity.

Sales Audit – Meaningful data is the key to sales improvement
Many organisations struggle to get meaningful information out of their sales function.
If that’s you, if probably means you don’t know where to start your sales improvement journey. And that’s normal. No-ne wants to talk a tight-rope blindfolded!
Planning for growth seems a huge task…in the dark!
But not anymore. You’ll get access to an easy to ready, tailored sales dashboard designed just for your organisation.
You’ll use this use to navigate moving forward.
You really will be in control of your own sales improvement (although support is also available if you need it)
So, whether your pushing through a sales plateau, gearing up for a new quarter, wanting to refocus the sales function or simply curious to see if you’re running the most effective and efficient sales operation, then a sales audit process should be your first step.
So, still wondering if a Sales Audit is for you? Then answer this
How would your day-to day business decision making change if you had in depth insight into your sales function, insight to such a degree that you could make informed business decisions on:
- How to increase sales performance within your business today
- Your sales function competency in terms of people, skills, process, practices and potential
- The real activity levels (versus current) required to hit and exceed targets
- The relationship between activities, value added activities and profit generating activities
- Profitable sectors, targets and propositions versus unprofitable sectors, targets and propositions
- Eliminating fluctuating, inconsistent or erratic sales forecasts by bringing 100% clarity to the pipeline management
- Improving sales profitability, average order value, spend per client and turnover
- Why you are losing business…and what you can do about it
- How to increase prices, why you should and how to sell it in!
- How your customer and prospect interface with your business
- Maximising up selling, cross selling, retention and win back
- Your CRM use (and abuse)
And also…
- Lead conversion across various criteria including lead source, decision maker type, sector, sales person, region
- Who in your sales team has the greatest potential to increase sales performance, versus those who should be performance managed
- Lead creation in terms of how you should be filling the sales funnel and with what quality opportunities in order to get the sales results you want, on a consistent basis
- Why you are dropping sales, why your competitors are winning business that belongs to you and what you could do about it
- Pricing dynamics in line with your value proposition
- Discounting – how prevalent is it, how to get rid of it and how to increase your prices and still win business
- Value creation, how robust is your ROI demonstration
- Sales Potential – what are your sales team sitting on that’s stopping your business growth and suppressing profits
And what’s your not knowing all of this actually costing your business today?
It’s a sales health check, a tool to refocus accountabilities, to burst through a sales plateau and levl up to your sales potential….
Over the years my clients have consistently told me that they valued the sales audit because it delivered key insights to help them to identify where they could do better , showed them how to consistently increase sales results, and build some resilience into the function so they could confidently invest and try new things, all of which has ultimately helped them to build a scale-able sales function.
Sales results invariably spike once the business focuses on key revenue generating activities consistently. They can spike even higher once everyone is on the same page and pulling in the same direction. And with the right management information, this becomes very possible…
So if you’ve got friction between sales and marketing, if your marketing budget is off the rails, or you’ve got sales prima-donna’s trying to rule the roust, then with the right management information, the drama drops away!
A sales audit has helped past clients get firm wide attention on making the sales process and sales function as efficient and as effective as possible. It realigns sales activities with the business strategy, and results with ambitions!
My clients also tell me that the Sales Audit:
- Put them back in control of their sales function.
- Clarified their understanding around key sales issues and sales results.
- Helped them make better decisions within their sales strategy.
- Gave them a greater insight into the functionality and operational efficiency of their sales function.
- Showed them where the key issues were that were negatively impacting business performance.
- Gave them clear guidance on what to change and what they can leave well alone.
- Took the risk out of making changes in the sales function and the business.
These are all key to any business change program especially when you consider the cost of getting it wrong, like…
- Meddling with parts of the sales processes that are working well
- Missing out on revenue that could be yours if only you could build more value
- Putting sales staff under unnecessary stress to adopt new ways of working only to find out that wasn’t the problem after all
- Sending sales performance into a nose dive and losing clients as a result
- Wasting time and money on outputs that were already optimised
- Recruiting more bodies on to the sales team to compensate for current under-performance (tip – this never works)
- Causing good / high performing sales staff to leave
- Wasting good quality sales opportunities because they’re not being handled expertly or commercially
- Building incentive and reward mechanisms that have zero chance of success
