Revenue Engineering
How to Sell Complex Solutions to Increasingly Demanding Customers
What is Revenue Engineering?
Traditionally the revenue engine model focuses on your Customer Acquisition Costs(CAC) and the ratio between it and your customers’ Lifetime Value (LTV). If you are spending too much on customer acquisition and not getting the return from your investment; then your revenue engine is not optimized for success. That said, there is more to revenue engineering than simply controlling spend.
Our revenue engineers examine all of the factors that influence your sale funnel both internally and externally. Identifying the journey the buyer takes from lead to close, and from close to renewal. The result being a roadmap for improvement, that details the process and method changes that need to be implemented, along with recommendations for training, and technology enhancements.
Our goal as revenue engineers, is to get your revenue engine optimized for your product and market, so that you can beat out the competition, and enjoy long term growth.
