An internal Telstra telephone sales team signed up $350k of Telstra revenue over 3 weeks - from a standing start - using our Disruptive Selling™ methodology!

For all the talk about so called SMarketing – sales and marketing alignment – there’s a dearth of easily implementable programs where the two teams can successfully work together, generating warm leads in the short term.
“Content marketing”, HubSpot, the “inbound methodology” and all the other latest approaches are great – but they usually come with a disclaimer: “WARNING – it will take 6-12 months before you see the results of your inbound efforts!”
It doesn’t have to be that way.
Here’s an example of a real world content effort that sales teams followed up – literally leading to instant success.

Would you be shocked to know that, if you're anything like most organisations, then around 10% of registered users that can access your business computer network no longer work for your company!!!
Would hearing that insight make your prospects sit up and take notice!?

I get it.
Sales & Marketing need to align.
Naturally.
But enough already.
Every organisational division needs to align.
If Finance doesn’t align with Manufacturing – we won’t have the cash to build stuff. But if they align in the “wrong way” (ie share poor raw materials forecast, share poor cashflow forecasts) – we’ll go broke!
