• Increase the amount of money you sell to your most loyal customers.

  It’s natural to assume that your most valuable clients are also your best customers. But, in most cases, it’s a myth. Profit contribution, cost-to-serve, and organic development potential can all be used to identify essential clients who need a cross-company emphasis. We’ve seen a full-court press on just 10 to 20% of the client base (the best clients) increase bottom-line profit by 5% or more on multiple occasions.

• Capitalize on new customer relationships

  The early stages of a new relationship are crucial, but they are also one of the most underappreciated aspects of the client experience. Clients in all categories consistently exhibit the greatest propensity to spend more and try new things shortly after joining. Why not take advantage of the honeymoon time by increasing the number of products, services, and accessories available?

• Pay attention to your sales team.

  Adding or beefing up the sales team is one of the most effective drivers of organic growth for instant impact. This is particularly true in industries with a variety of sales channels. We’ve seen it work for a national insurance firm that resisted the impulse to cut expenses and instead added sellers to its fastest-growing region, resulting in quick returns. In Fortune 500 organizations, we’ve also discovered a similar pattern of profitable revenue gains via targeted sales-strengthening initiatives. Many companies didn’t even hire more people; instead, they redeployed current staff and improved training and processes. Redeploying resources has a near-instant payback compared to new sales recruits, which typically take six to twelve months to pay off.
