Partner with a Fractional Sales Manager for Better Rate of Success

Many companies are not prepared to absorb the cost of a full-time, experienced sales manager. One of the big mistakes companies make is to take their best salesperson and make them the manager.

Fractional Sales Team Presentation

They lose their best salesperson and hire an inexperienced, weak manager. How does a company find a successful, experienced sales manager who can build and lead a high-performing team?

This is where hiring us as your Fractional Sales Manager can change the game!

As a Fractional Sales Manager, we will be working in your company directly with your sales team for either a half-day a week or a full day a week. The size of the sales team typically determines this.

Of course, we are available throughout the week as needed, and we communicate weekly with the business owner or senior management. We can work in person in the Houston and DFW areas, or we can work virtually with a remote team or customize a hybrid arrangement.

Depending on the time required and the scope of work, the monthly investment will range from $4,000 to $8,000. There will also be minor costs for management software, recruiting, and quarterly training.
