Get in touch

Most growth problems get labelled sales problems.Often they aren't.

II Consulting works on both sides of the line between selling and delivering. We help companies build a sales function that forecasts accurately, and an operation that can absorb what it sells.

What it usually looks like from the inside

  1. The team hits its number, and delivery buckles under the weight of it.
  2. The forecast looks healthy right up until the quarter closes.
  3. Reps spend more time chasing internal handoffs than talking to customers.

Each of these gets diagnosed as a sales problem, so the response is usually more reps, a new CRM, or a bigger quota. None of those touch the actual cause, which sits in the space between the two functions.

Two functions, one system

Sales and operations are almost always managed separately and measured separately. We work on them together, because the failures worth fixing happen where they meet.

Sales
  • Pipeline and stage design
  • Forecasting discipline
  • Territory and quota planning
  • A CRM your team will actually use
  • Compensation tied to the behaviour you want
Operations
  • Capacity and resource planning
  • The handoff from signed deal to delivery
  • Process documentation that survives turnover
  • Reporting that surfaces problems early
  • Margin and utilisation you can see monthly

How an engagement runs

First

Diagnose

Two to three weeks of interviews, data review, and process mapping. You end up with a ranked list of what's broken and what each fix is worth.

Then

Plan

A written plan with named owners and dates against every item. Short enough that people actually read it and use it.

Finally

Implement

We work alongside your team through the changes, or hand the plan over documented well enough that they can run it without us.

Who you'd be working with

Over a decade spent inside the sales and operations of growing companies, rather than advising on them from outside. That includes scaling a technology company from $7M to $185M, and an industrial company from $100M to $150M.

Buyers of this kind of work are choosing a person rather than a firm, so engagements are run by the person you meet.

Who this is for

The work lands hardest with companies at a specific stage:

  • $500K to $50M in revenue
  • Technology, manufacturing, and infrastructure
  • Growing faster than the process behind it
  • A sales team that exists but doesn't run on a system yet
