Revenue growth has stalled
Activity may be high, but revenue or margin no longer grows. The real constraint is often buried across the commercial model.
Commercial systems, not isolated initiatives
Growth becomes predictable when strategy, process and execution work as one system.
I help B2B, B2G and industrial companies improve revenue predictability, profitability and execution by aligning commercial strategy, processes, people, data, technology and AI.
Problems I solve
Where commercial systems lose money, speed and control
The pipeline is not credible
CRM stages exist, yet management cannot rely on the probability, timing or volume of future revenue.
Results depend on individual employees
Knowledge, relationships and execution are tied to a few people rather than embedded in the system, creating risk.
Complex deals lose momentum
Long cycles, multiple decision-makers and unclear areas of responsibility cause promising opportunities to stall.
Commercial management is fragmented
Strategy, roles, KPIs, incentives and management cycles are not connected to one business result.
Technology has no measurable impact
CRM, automation or AI are introduced before the commercial architecture is designed, scaling inefficient processes.
What the client gains
A commercial system management can understand, steer and scale
More reliable revenue forecasting and better sales control
Leadership understands the real status of opportunities, the basis for the forecast and the risks to future revenue.
Clear ownership of the next step
The team knows who owns the next action and what is required to move the opportunity forward.
Less dependence on individual employees
Processes and the knowledge base preserve working practices and reduce reliance on individual people.
How I work
Diagnose. Transform. Scale.
I provide recommendations and support the changes until they are embedded in day-to-day work. Technology comes after commercial logic. The objective is a system that continues to work in day-to-day management.
01
Diagnose
Find where the system loses revenue, margin, deals, speed and manageability. Deliver a clear diagnosis and prioritised action plan.
02
Transform
Redesign strategy, sales process, roles, pipeline, KPIs, incentives and management cycles around the desired result.
03
Scale
Reinforce a working architecture with CRM, RevOps, analytics, automation, knowledge systems and AI.
Commercial transformation scope
Five connected areas, one commercial result
Strategy and commercial model
Market focus, value proposition, routes to revenue and increasing your product's value for the client.
Sales process and complex deals
Deal stages, evidence, decision criteria and influence maps inside the client organisation.
Organization and people
Roles, accountability, capability, incentives, management cycles and knowledge transfer.
Performance management
Metrics, forecasting, decision cycles and management visibility tied to outcomes.
Data, technology and AI
CRM, RevOps, analytics, automation and AI applied to sound commercial architecture.
Who I work with
Companies where commercial complexity has become a management issue
Companies with complex B2B salesLong cycles, high deal value and several decision-makers.
Industrial and technical companiesSolutions requiring technical credibility and cross-functional coordination.

Companies undergoing commercial changeGrowth, restructuring, CRM programmes, new leadership, automation or AI.
20+years in B2B and B2G sales, business development and commercial management
Experience
Strategic perspective with operational depth
My experience spans business development, energy, industrial equipment and commercial team management. I examine a commercial problem from the boardroom down to the daily decisions that determine whether a deal moves forward.
I turn commercial chaos into clear processes, accountability, metrics, management cycles and technology. Available for international consulting projects.
