Sales and Business Development
A&S can work with existing sales personnel to grow your business. We can work on new product or sales channel introductions or review your existing sales planning and implementation to ensure the best performance from your existing team.
Within commercial teams we also provide a mentoring and professional development service. This can improve confidence in sales personnel, as well as giving them skills such as understanding a more holistic view of your business and how their roles can effect other departments such as finance and operations. They will also learn how to plan, propose new ideas and manage their stature within your business.
We will help your existing team go further and achieve more.
Strategic Management Support
Providing support to senior management and ownership teams in either times of transition or working on a specific project with targeted goals.
As businesses grow the needs of the business change, and we bring experience of managing both growth, and also managing a business through contraction. A&S will add depth to your management team without the costs associated with a full time senior manager. We will help avoid common mistakes that can slow growth and provide support to the existing management team.
Brand and Product Management
Over the last ten to fifteen years this has been one of the fastest growing areas of marketing. Providing a specialist level of knowledge and strategy to each brand or product both supports sales efforts, but also generates fresh ideas which can benefit customers.
Often this extra resource can be expensive relative to existing profitability for smaller business but it helps drive real growth. A&S can provide this service to your business at a fraction of the cost of a full time employee to aid the growth of a certain brand or product, while coaching and mentoring individuals to take on the role more fully in the future.
*Any expenses for first meeting are chargeable
Our costings are agreed with our clients before we start work so there won’t be any surprises. We usually follow one of two models. Either we cost a project in advance and agree payment terms or we work on a day/ part day or hourly rate.
In any case costs won’t be a surprise and due to our size and low overheads we are not expensive, but this is not a reflection on our quality of service.
