Take the market

Competitors are cutting marketing and laying off salespeople. Their clients are looking for a new supplier right now — and will find whoever reaches them first. I build the sales channel, the product team and new revenue streams on the capacity you already own.

— Your industry
Sound familiar?

Six signs the market is slipping away

01

Revenue rests on the same clients as three years ago. There are almost no new ones.

02

Half the enquiries go unanswered for more than a day — and go to whoever replied first.

03

Everything rests on two strong salespeople. If they leave, they take the client base and half the revenue.

04

Clients compare on price alone, because there is nothing else to compare.

05

Ideas for new directions exist, but not one has ever been costed out.

06

Your capacity, people and licences allow more than you currently sell.

What we do

Five sources of new revenue

Each works on its own. Together they form a channel that brings clients in without your personal involvement.

01

New revenue streams and commercialisation

We look for what else can be sold using the same capacity, the same team and the same client base. The economics come first: unit economics, a P&L for the direction, the break-even point. Half the ideas are filtered out at the calculation stage — which saves you a year and the whole launch budget.

Asset auditWhat you already own: capacity, licences, competencies, client base, data
Direction searchHypotheses for new products and markets built on those assets
Demand validationCustDev, interviews and test sales before investing in production
EconomicsUnit economics, P&L, break-even point, scenarios
LaunchProduct, price, packaging, channel, first sales
HandoverThe direction passes to your team with procedures and metrics
Case: at Ingo Bank, after the SWIFT disconnection, we ran the full path from demand research to market launch — ₽4 bn of effect. Today every major bank in the country has an equivalent solution.

02

Product teams

I assemble and train a team that carries an idea through to sales, not to a slide deck. Product thinking proven in banking and on the shop floor: hypothesis, fast validation, metrics, an honest decision to continue or close.

Roles and structureWho owns the product, the metric and the priorities
ProcessFrom idea to business effect: stages, control points, criteria
MetricsWhat we measure and review every week
Learning on the jobThey learn on your real project, not on textbook cases
Initiative portfolioPrioritised by effect and payback period
Internal leaderWe prepare the person who will carry this forward alone
Result: the team closes hypotheses in weeks instead of quarters, and the initiatives that reach delivery are the ones that were costed — not the ones defended loudest.

Sales team and CRM

I build or rebuild the department as a managed flow: a funnel with norms, procedures, scripts as standardised work, incentives tuned to your margin, a configured CRM and a dashboard. A rented sales head leaves and takes the order with him — a system stays.

Seven client communication channels

The client writes wherever is convenient for them, not wherever is familiar to you. The CRM becomes the core: it ties all seven channels into a single client history. Someone messages on WhatsApp, then calls, then arrives via VK — the manager sees the whole thread in one window and never asks them to repeat themselves.

CRM — the coreties every channel into one client history
Phoneinbound, outbound, recording, call review
Emailcold outreach and warming the base
SMSconfirmations, reminders, reactivation
Telegrambot, mini-app, channel, live chat
WhatsAppchat and campaigns to your base
VKontaktemessages, community page and paid targeting
MAXa new channel with still-cheap access to the audience
Effect: no enquiry is lost between channels, the first reply goes out within seconds around the clock, and the full client history sits in one window.

Strategy session

For when it is unclear where to go and with what. Two days with the top team: building a shared picture, setting priorities, an initiative portfolio priced in rubles, a roadmap with owners and deadlines. Individual interviews run beforehand so the group does not spend its time warming up.

Pre-session interviewsHeld separately with the owner and key executives
DataEconomics by direction, bottlenecks, losses — we arrive with facts
PrioritiesThree to five directions the team owns personally
Initiative portfolioWhat delivers, what costs money, what will never pay back
RoadmapOwners, deadlines and checkpoints for the year
Follow-up in a monthA separate meeting on the roadmap status
The difference: the session is run by the person who then comes in to implement what was decided. That is why nothing undeliverable makes it into the roadmap.

How we start

From first conversation to first sales

Шаг 01

Review

We look at where clients are lost and what else can be sold on your own assets, and size the potential.

3 дня
Шаг 02

Validation

We test demand before investing: interviews, landing pages, trial sales. The decision is made on numbers.

2–4 weeks
Шаг 03

Launch

We assemble the channel, the team and the product. First sales happen inside the project, not after it.

1–3 months
Шаг 04

Handover

Procedures, training, metrics. The direction keeps growing without us.

Questions

Frequently asked

We have no budget for experiments
That is exactly why we start with the calculation, not the launch. Validating demand costs a fraction of production, and half the ideas are filtered out at that step. If a direction does not pay back, we say so plainly and decline the job.
We have already tried hiring a sales head and a marketer
A familiar story: the hire walks into an environment with no funnel norms, no procedures and no data. We build the system first and place the person into it — then they work instead of burning out in three months.
What does it cost?
We quote after the review and always as a fixed price — for the result, not for hours. On some projects payment can be tied to the effect achieved; that is discussed once both sides can see the number.
Do you work with our industry?
We have experience in manufacturing, banking, insurance, logistics, utilities and private services. The industry switcher at the top of the page shows how it looks in your case.
