Sales and Marketing Working Together
Where sales and marketing work closely together to identify and go after the most profitable clients, 76% of firms see revenue growth. When sales and marketing don’t, it’s 43% of firms seeing growth. Marketing must identify specific targets for salespeople and arm them with the data to be one step ahead of the client. Read Searcy’s book Life After the Death of Sales. Then reach out to them – they have helped firms generate over $18 billion in new revenue – they are the real deal.

Planning to Exit?
It’s the most critical decision a business owner will make in their lifetime – and over my 40 years of helping firms, I’ve seen owners taken advantage of time and time again – leaving tens of millions on the table. You’re up against sophisticated buyers who have done hundreds of acquisitions – whereas this is often your first rodeo. And these buyers have a formula for ripping you off – and it works. Seeking help, owners find the big M&A firms, especially those specializing in your industry, are more beholden to the buyers than the sellers (they will tell you otherwise). They are not your friend in the process, just another transaction. Email me to get a white paper on what to avoid when exiting [email protected].
