“There’s no question that technology is always delivering new opportunities for businesses to streamline and become better at what they do, and to do it more efficiently.

Technology though, is usually the easy bit…

It takes real feet on the ground, to figure out what actually makes sense, and how to translate this into real outcomes that not just make sense from a practical level, but also address the surrounding cultural and process issues that need to adapt and be supported along the way. Most consultants miss this point!

I’ve focussed on manufacturing and specifically SME’s because there are real challenges and nuances that make designing and implementing solutions in this sector problematic for anyone venturing in with just a surface level understanding. I bring you sector expertise, a strong technology focus and a level headed understanding of the business drivers that will lead to a real and measurable outcome.”

“Communication across the business is key to what ultimately becomes financial health. Having a process and place to capture that communication from your sales team, and all other functions within your organization, will ensure and enforce that desired level of transparency, which in turn allows more visibility into that data.

Reporting on that comprehensive and consistent data becomes information, and information is knowledge and power. You are then armed with knowledge at the click of a button, in the driver’s seat, and can move your business forward in a more strategic versus reactive manner.

Additionally, a measurable and visible sales function will deliver a higher performing sales function, but will also be become a strategic pillar of the entire business.

One of my roles at REV4 is to work with clients to implement and customize applications that support the tools, data and reporting needed to develop a higher performing sales team.”
