What We Do
Practical SFA Advisory
We bring firsthand experience across software sales, implementation, programming, and training to help clients make better SFA decisions and avoid common delivery failures.
SFA Strategy
We research your business as well as your competition. We interview members of your sales team to understand their frustrations and look at the system you have in place . Our experience in those systems enables us to see how companies have missed opportunities because many are looking to fix their current issues and ignoring the ones they will face in the future. This puts many companies in the position where they are always trying to catch up, instead of leading the competition. We make the team understand that CRM is about keeping existing customers while SFA is about hunting for new ones. Once the objectives are established, we look for buy-in from the sales team so they become the stakeholders of the outcome. We explain how they should help layout the process by which the SFA should be set up instead of leaving it to the implementation team who aren’t sales people. This way they are responsible for the outcome and part of the success. The best place to start and understand what is preventing the successes is with the people responsible. The system should performs the functions the sales team needs, while providing the reports management wants. We’ve seen how a properly set up SFA system can turn the sales department into a well oiled machine operating like an assembly line producing product. We point out to management which reports will identify weakness and strengths in their sales team and how those reports can drive a turn around. Let the system do the mundane tasks that bring no value and the sales team sit in front of prospects.
Platform Selection
Evaluate options against operational needs, integration realities, reporting expectations, and long-term fit for your organization.
Implementation Oversight
Strengthen governance, scope control, vendor coordination, and decision-making throughout the delivery lifecycle.
Adoption and Improvement
Improve user adoption, workflow alignment, data quality, and management reporting so the system delivers measurable value.
Why SFA Projects Struggle
Many SFA initiatives underperform because process design, data ownership, change management, and executive alignment are addressed too late.
We help clients identify delivery risks early, challenge the assumptions, and create a more realistic path to adoption and business value. Our approach is especially relevant for manufacturers and distributors balancing sales, service, and operational complexity.
