GTM Strategy & Methodology

One story. One language. One measurable impact

Your GTM team is telling a different story in every room. We facilitate a proven outcome-based framework workshop that aligns sales, presales, marketing, and customer success around a consistent narrative — then embed it with playbooks, training, and AI toolkits.

The Challenge

Building the plane while it's already flying

Your strategy, product, and revenue model are evolving — but the go-to-market story hasn't caught up. Buyers struggle to connect your technical depth to business impact. The narrative changes from deal to deal, rep to rep.

Meanwhile, deep expertise is concentrated in a small number of SMEs. Early-stage discovery and demos feel less confident without them, creating pressure to “borrow” expert time more often. New hires take months to ramp because the knowledge lives in people's heads, not in a system.

Without a shared, outcome-based framework, every rep creates their own version of the vision — and you risk that vision landing differently in every room.

Inconsistent GTM narrative

Story changes across deals and regions. Buyers get a different pitch depending on who they talk to.

Expertise locked in a few heads

To sell effectively you need both sales experts and domain experts — but that knowledge isn't scalable.

Generic first demos

First demos are often not tailored to a prospect's problem, market, or goals. Conversion is below benchmark.

Slow onboarding, inconsistent ramp

New reps take months to become productive because there's no structured methodology to learn from.

The Foundation

Four questions every rep must answer

Before a single slide is built or a demo is delivered, your team needs consensus on these four questions. Our workshop builds that consensus.

01

What problems do we currently solve for our customers?

02

How do we specifically solve them?

03

How do we do it differently than our competition?

04

What is our proof?

The Framework

Outcome-based conversation model

A proven methodology that maps every customer interaction — from first discovery call to executive presentation — to measurable business outcomes that justify premium investment.

What is an Outcome-Driven Value Driver?

What your prospects are proactively looking for — whether you exist or not
Revenue, cost, or risk related topics that keep buyers up at night
Top-of-mind customer problems that exist even if your product didn't
Compelling enough that an economic buyer would re-allocate discretionary funds

Current State & Pain

Paint a picture of the undesirable state your buyer lives in today. Convey empathy and elaborate on the pain that the value driver addresses.

How would the customer express the current situation?

Negative Consequences

Identify the tangible business implications — unfavourable operational and financial outcomes. This is the basis for quantifying the value of the pain.

How would the customer express the tangible business implications?

Future State & Vision

Create a compelling 'stand-in-the-future' vision showing how life improves. An opportunity to educate the buyer on industry best practices.

How would the customer describe the ideal state?

Positive Business Outcomes

Define outcomes in terms that resonate with the economic buyer. The 'R' of the ROI — compelling enough that they'd reallocate discretionary funding.

Is this PBO compelling enough that the economic buyer would reallocate funds?

Value Conversation Deep Dive

Required Capabilities

The solution capabilities needed to achieve outcomes. Phrased in the customer's language but influenced by your differentiators. Basis for the technical buyer's decision criteria.

How We Do It (HWDI)

How your solution satisfies requirements. Standardised syntax: “Thing We Have/Do + Verb + Benefit You Get.” Consistent across every rep, every deal.

HWDI Better

How your offerings satisfy requirements better or differently than competitive offerings. The articulation of defensible differentiation under pressure.

Customer Stories & Proof

Verifiable evidence — case studies, testimonials, and tangible results expressed in increased revenue, decreased cost, and reduced risk.

Who's In The Room

This is a leadership alignment event

The workshop deliberately brings together the cross-functional leaders who own your go-to-market motion. This is how you get genuine consensus — not a top-down decree that nobody follows.

Owns the vision and signs off on the story

CRO / Head of Sales

Ensures methodology fits the sales motion

CCO / Head of Customer

Connects methodology to retention and expansion

Regional Sales Leaders

Bring frontline deal context and objections

Regional Presales Leaders

Product Leaders / PMs

Map product capabilities to buyer outcomes

Product Marketing

Align messaging and competitive positioning

Tenured AEs

Bring real customer conversations and tribal knowledge

Tenured SCs / Presales

Bring demo expertise and technical objection patterns

Discovery questions that map current state and pain to future state and positive business outcomes
Training and playbooks for Sales & CS to sell, upsell, and retain with consistency

Post-Workshop Deliverables

Four production-ready assets

You don't just walk away with workshop notes. We build these deliverables from the workshop output and hand them to your team ready to use in live deals.

Outcome-Based Sales Playbook

A comprehensive, production-ready playbook containing your value drivers, outcome cards, discovery questions, differentiation frameworks, and customer stories. Not a template — built from your team's own input during the workshop.

Sales & CS Playbook Training

Structured training for your entire Sales and Customer Success team on how to use the playbook in live deals. Includes usage walkthroughs, scenario practice, and playbook adoption planning.

Facilitated Roleplay & Reinforcement

Ongoing reinforcement sessions where reps practice the methodology with facilitated roleplay using real deal scenarios. This is where the methodology moves from theory to muscle memory.

AI Sales Toolkit

Custom-built GPT tools that automate discovery question creation, deal coaching, role-play simulation, and qualification prompts. Your team gets AI-powered deal support that speaks your methodology, permanently.

The Investment

Why this is worth every penny

The workshop and deliverables represent a comprehensive GTM transformation. Here's why organisations invest — and why the ROI is measured in weeks, not years.

You're buying alignment, not slides

Getting your CEO, CRO, sales leaders, product, marketing, and customer teams in the same room for two days of focused, facilitated alignment is extraordinarily rare — and extraordinarily valuable. Try getting that alignment any other way.

Four assets that would take 6-12 months internally

A complete sales playbook, team training programme, facilitated reinforcement sessions, and custom AI toolkit. Building these internally would take half a year of your best people's time and still lack the external perspective.

The framework plugs into your existing process

We don't rip and replace your sales process. The outcome-based framework enhances what you already have — adding structure, consistency, and a shared language that makes your existing motion more effective.

The AI toolkit keeps working forever

Custom-built GPT tools for discovery question creation, deal coaching, role-play simulation, and qualification. Your team gets AI-powered deal support that speaks your methodology — permanently, with no ongoing cost.
