Standardize Round 1
I earned the opportunity to stay on with the acquiring body and develop more skills to aid their growth.
In my first few months with the organization I took on the responsibilities of improving the pipeline management process and system for the President of North America, their $130+ million dollar pipeline was unpredictable, difficult to forecast or glean insights from. As a result we put more rigor in place to understand what was happening with these deals:
Weekly pipeline review sessions,
1 on 1 coaching facilitated by managers and senior leadership
Consolidation of sales collateral to improve efficiency, so any of the 15 reps could find exactly what they need, when they need
Creating unified channels for cross functional communication to support a complex sales process
Deal desk to aid in closing deals efficiently
After making these improvements to our revenue generation engine, sales, I turned my attention toward revenue retention, success.
