Sales Consulting & Sales Team Performance

You Generated the Lead. What Happens Next?

Marketing creates opportunities. Sales converts opportunities into customers.

If your business receives enquiries but revenue is not growing at the expected rate, the gap may exist within the sales process.

Satirth helps businesses examine what happens after a lead enters the organisation and identify opportunities to improve sales performance.

Quick Answer

What is sales consulting?

Sales consulting is the process of evaluating and improving a company's sales process, lead management, sales pipeline, follow-up, conversion, proposal management, sales team performance and reporting to improve business outcomes.

The Reality

Common Sales Problems

Businesses often tell us:

"We are getting enquiries but sales are low."
"Our sales team is working hard but conversion is poor."
"Leads are not being followed up properly."
"Customers take too long to make decisions."
"We don't know why we are losing opportunities."
"Our proposals are not converting."
"Salespeople are not consistently meeting targets."
"We don't have visibility into the pipeline."
"The business depends too much on one salesperson."
"We don't know where sales opportunities are getting lost."

What does a sales consultant do?

A sales consultant evaluates the sales process and identifies opportunities to improve lead management, sales conversion, pipeline performance, sales team effectiveness and revenue generation.

Sales performance can be improved through clear targets, defined KPIs, structured processes, effective lead management, regular performance reviews, pipeline visibility and continuous coaching.

How do I measure sales team performance?

Useful indicators include qualified opportunities, response time, follow-up activity, conversion rate, proposal-to-sale ratio, sales cycle, revenue and target achievement.
