What kinds of companies does Outgrow work with?
If you have a sales function, no matter how many people are involved, Outgrow will help you systematize and quickly (and easily) grow your sales.Ā
Outgrow has generated predictable revenue growth for B2B firms, non-profits, and even some B2C companies.Ā
How is Outgrow structured?
We have an Outgrow Launch Year, and Outgrow Support Years. The Launch Year builds and cements your Outgrow proactive selling habit, and the Support Years ensure the proactive behaviors continue over time.
How long does it take to start seeing results?
We do a launch workshop approximately 90 days into the Launch Year, and systematic growth begins that very day. In fact, we ask people to make their first Outgrow proactive call duringĀ this first workshop. From there, youāll see sales being made that are above and beyond what would have ācome inā to you.Ā
Does Outgrow work well in challenging economies?
Weāve learned that Outgrow ā which works incredibly well during good economies ā worksĀ even betterĀ during slower times. This is because your competition is in a defensive crouch, and particularly silent with customers and prospects during difficult economies.Ā Surely Iām not going to ask them for more business now.Ā In slow economies your competition is even more absent than normal. So when we push the gas on your proactive communications, you will be the only one proactively communicating with customers and prospects.Ā
Why donāt most companies sell proactively?
Our founder, Alex Goldfayn, has found that 90% of all organizations -- and 90% of all individual salespeople ā are strictly reactive in their sales function. That is, they are very good at taking the orders that come in. And most companies that have been in existence for some time are excellent at customer service. Salespeople tend to be great order takers, and great customer service people. But most firms lack a proactive sales development process.
The reason why is most firms feel like (1) they donāt have time; (2) they donāt know how to sell proactively; (3) when theyāve tried, it didnāt work well; (4) salespeople are better at resisting change than leaders are at implementing it; (5) the vast majority of companies donāt address the mindsets that prevent proactivity in the first place.
All of this is very good news. It means itās very easy to Outgrow your market, and Outgrow your competition.
Does running Outgrow take a long time?
The good news is that Outgrow only requires five minutes per day ā from salespeople, managers, and leaders. The Outgrow approach is to infuse proactivity into everyoneās reactive day. You donāt need hours to run Outgrow. You need five minutes per day.
Do I have to tear down and rebuild my selling process to run Outgrow?
Absolutely not. Just the opposite in fact: Outgrow is designed to be infused into your existing sales process. You donāt need to rebuild anything. You just need your customer-facing people to communicate more with your market.Ā
Why does Outgrow work so well?
For a number of reasons:Ā
- Approximately two-thirds of Outgrow work with your sales teams is mindset work. That is, we focus on infusing enthusiasm, confidence, boldness and helping them overcome their fear of rejection or upsetting the customer.Ā
- Conversely, most corporate change initiatives focus only on behaviors, not thinking. Thatās why most corporate change fizzles away: it doesnāt attack the mindset thatās preventing the desired behavior.Ā
- Outgrow infuses accountability into your sales function. This is difficult to do. Ā Thankfully, Ā over two decades, Outgrow has mastered how to add multiple layers of fast and simple oversight and accountability into your sales process.Ā
- Outgrow is fast and simple, requiring no more than five minutes per day from your Outgrowers (customer-facing staff), managers and leaders.Ā Data doesnāt lie, and what gets measured gets done. Outgrow measures the count of behaviors that are proven to generate revenue.Ā
