I find exactly what's costing you deals, build the structure to fix it, and give you a 90-day plan you can act on immediately.
A cold-calling team was booking appointments at a 20% rate. After working through their scripts, call structure, and objection handling, they hit 80% within the same quarter. The team didn't change. The process did. Sales doubled.
Before you bring on headcount, you need to know if the process they're stepping into will let them win. Most don't.
Your team is active, but the numbers swing and you don't have a clear read on what's driving it.
When it keeps happening, the issue is usually the structure, not the people.
If the business can't sell without you in the room, you don't have a sales team yet.
You need senior sales leadership but can't justify a full-time executive hire at your stage.
Not another consultant who delivers a deck and disappears. Someone who listens to your calls.
Sales Advisor · Denver, CO
I'm Chris Marcus. I've spent over 20 years in sales — carrying a bag, building teams from scratch, running cold-call floors, and fixing processes that were quietly costing companies deals they didn't know they were losing.
I work with founders and operators of 5 to 25 person companies who have a solid product but sales results that don't reflect it. In almost every case, the gap isn't the people on the team. It's the absence of a system underneath them.
I don't write strategy decks and hand them off. I get into your recordings, your sequences, your pipeline, and I tell you exactly what I find — and then I help you fix it.
The team was calling consistently, but conversion was stuck at 20%. Leadership assumed the reps weren't good enough. The actual problem was the script, the call structure, and objection handling — all three working against them.
We rebuilt the call framework, worked through the objection map, and reset the discovery sequence. Within the same quarter, appointment rate hit 80%. Revenue doubled by year end. Not one rep was replaced.
One focused week. I go into how your sales team actually operates, find what's costing you deals, and hand you a clear plan to fix it.
I listen to your actual calls, not summaries. Tonality, discovery quality, objection handling, and whether your reps are creating real next steps or just hoping something sticks.
Your outreach cadence, cold call scripts, and follow-up sequences get a full review. I find where you're losing people and why your reply rates look the way they do.
How deals are moving, stalling, and getting lost. I look at your CRM activity and stage definitions versus how your team actually uses the tools.
A direct, clear report of everything I found. What's working, what's broken, and why it's costing you. No consulting jargon, no padding.
Specific, prioritized actions your team can start executing immediately. A plan for the next quarter, not a roadmap for a year from now.
We go through everything together. You ask questions, we get aligned, and you leave knowing exactly what to do next.
Fixed scope. Fixed price. One week.
No retainer required. No long-term commitment.
Some companies take the plan and run. Others want help implementing it.
The findings document and 90-day plan are yours. Your team implements, you track the changes. If questions come up, you know where to find me.
If the audit surfaces gaps you want help closing — coaching your reps, rebuilding your sequences, or providing ongoing sales leadership — I offer a fractional retainer. A few hours a week, built around exactly what the audit found.
