Our capabilities

We build the commercial engines
Private Equity-backed
businesses run on.

Built for businesses where growth through commercial transformation is a priority.

How we create commercial value

We design, implement, and stay until the results are visible. Each capability is built around delivery.

Sales & GTM
Find, win, and grow the right revenue.
01
Commercial Value Creation Strategy & Implementation
Most businesses start a growth programme without a clear picture of where commercial value actually sits, or in what order to go after it.
We map it, prioritise it, build the plan, and stay to implement it. The overarching strategic foundation linking commercial opportunity to fund-level value creation, delivered, not just designed. Typical time-to-insight: 4–6 weeks.
02
GTM (Go-to-Market) Enhancement & Acceleration
Growth rarely comes from direct sales alone. Most businesses haven't built the full Go-to-Market infrastructure, the right channels, partners, and markets, to capture available opportunity.
Direct sales acceleration, channel management, ecosystem-led and partner-led growth, and international expansion.
03
Sales Operations & Org Design
Sales teams run without unified dashboards or clean CRM data. Incentives reward activity, not the outcomes that move EBITDA.
Dashboards, CRM, MIS, salesforce structure, and incentive design, built to last after we leave.
Pricing
Recover and protect margin that never shows on the P&L.
04
Transaction & Value Pricing
Rep discounting erodes margins no one can see on a P&L. Value pricing helps to identify underpriced products & services.
We recover structural margin leakage, from quick wins to full transformation. Typical uplift: 2–5 percentage points, sustained after engagement close.
05
Price Setting & Architecture
Prices set by gut or history, not by value delivered. No clear logic linking product, customer, and price point, and for SaaS businesses, legacy per-seat models that leave significant revenue on the table as usage scales.
Target price setting, price architecture, and segmented pricing models that hold under commercial pressure. For SaaS, we design the shift from user-based to volume- or outcome-based models that capture value as customers grow.
06
Pricing Tools & CPQ
Off-the-shelf solutions create workarounds. Price communication breaks down without the right infrastructure.
Custom pricing tools and CPQ that hold under commercial pressure and embed the new pricing logic permanently.
Pragmatic Custom Tooling
We are a commercial transformation team that also builds the tooling. We embed CRMs and build the systems that make the change stick, as part of the transformation, not a separate IT project.
07
CRM Embedding & Configuration
New ways of working slip when the CRM does not reflect them. Off-the-shelf set-ups leave teams working around the system.
We embed and configure the CRM (HubSpot, Pipedrive, or other): pipelines, clean data, and reporting the team actually uses, built in as part of the commercial work, not handed off to a separate IT project.
08
Custom Commercial Tooling
Sometimes the tool a business needs to capture the opportunity does not exist off the shelf.
We build the custom tooling required to embed the change quickly, from pricing and quoting tools to bespoke commercial workflows. Built by the same operators running the transformation, so it fits the commercial change and gets used, not presented.
09
Dashboards & MIS
Decisions stall when the right numbers are not in front of the right people.
Power BI dashboards and management reporting that make commercial performance visible and stay in use after we leave.

We operate across industries. Our deepest delivery track record sits in the sectors below.

Why we succeed
in transformation
Impact-first scoping
We focus on the levers that will actually move the number, not a 50-slide diagnostic.
Hands-on with the sales team
We coach reps individually on their own data, not from a classroom.
Flexible team model
From a single expert to a full delivery team, scaled to what the business needs.
Local language, local culture
We deliver in-market across the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Scandinavia and Eastern Europe.
Custom tooling, not slide decks
We build the dashboards, models and pricing tools that stay in use after we leave.
Built to hand over
We work alongside internal leaders so the change sustains without us.
