Achievence is a sales transformation company that works with clients to design and implement programs that enhance immediate and long-term business growth. Each of our experts have proven track records of sales success in at least two different industries, in addition to extensive experience providing hands-on sales strategy and education. Founded in 1997, Achievence has served a wide range of clients, from emerging startups to Fortune 500 organizations.    Achievence’s primary focus is to help clients achieve measurable and consistent sales success regardless of market conditions, working extensively with clients in the field as well as the conference room. Based on our experience, we’ve identified four key focus areas that can help organizations achieve immediate and long-term bottom-line sales results: 1. Performance Management Only 22% of the sales people hired in this country hit or exceed quota in their first 2 years. Achievence helps clients solve this problem through improved hiring practices; effective compensation, territory and quota objectives; and sales force automation and forecasting systems. 2. Program Development and Implementation Theoretical training seminars rarely translate into real customer wins. That’s why Achievence works with sales professionals in the field through an immersion process that concentrates on real prospects. We also assess marketing strategy to ensure that support materials align with the messages that result from the training. And finally, we integrate new methods into the sales culture, validate results with real wins, and provide the means for consistent reinforcement and application of those methods over time. 3. Channel and Partner Strategy Channel strategy, strategic alliances and networking functions create warm leads. Achievence works with clients to develop an effective network strategy that places a premium on training, communication, bilateral growth and mutual respect. 4. Creating a Sales Driven Culture You cannot make great sales people out of non-sales professionals, but if everyone learns the role they play and the subtle sales skills they need in satisfying the customer, your sales professionals will spend less time worrying about what happens to their customer once they are handed off to operations. Consider your real-world challenges when exploring the services of potential sales consultants. Are they working beyond the seminar presentation to help your sales professionals achieve results? Are they going into the field with you? Are they delivering the type of knowledge that can be easily retained, implemented and reinforced company-wide? Achievence consultants are doing all this and more, for a clientele that spans across multiple industries, including: • Telecom • Technology • Hardware • Enterprise Software • Life Sciences and Biotech • Medical Sales • Retail • Federal, State and Local Governments • Hospitality • Construction • Manufacturing • Legal • Accounting • Consulting • VARs • 8A Firms • Non-profits • Associations • Marketing • Public Relations • Web Development and E-business • Hosting • Security • Distance Learning • ..and many others
