CEO Decision Trigger
This company relied on a single high-performing rainmaker driving most of its sales. The CEO wanted to scale that success without disrupting existing production, but no structured sales development, training framework, or accountability system existed.
Challenge
- Sales success depended largely on one top performer.
- No structured sales development or training framework existed.
- No accountability system to measure or replicate success.

Intervention
- Built a roadmap for team growth without overwhelming the existing leader.
- Created measurable benchmarks for sales effectiveness.
- Standardized a scalable approach to client acquisition and retention.
- Developed a framework for new hires to learn without pulling top producers from revenue-driving activities.
- Implemented a structured meeting cadence for alignment and performance tracking.
Results
- Achieved 20% year-over-year revenue growth for three consecutive years.
- Transformed into the top-performing unit within the organization.
- Rainmaker transitioned into leadership without sacrificing revenue production.
CEO Testimonial
