FAQ
We expect a growth strategy to identify what an organization has to do to transcend their current capabilities and roadblocks by looking into areas of:
- Executive leadership
- Sales process and go to market
- Marketing approach and company differentiators
- Client engagement and service
Some of the most common KPIs we want to see every company measure are things like cash flow and burn rate, sales cycle and cost of goods sold, and customer acquisition cost, lifetime value and customer satisfaction.
However, what’s key is to identify metrics and data points that hone in on your differentiators and “special sauce”. This ability is created by a deep understanding of how your organization is planning to grow.
No, in fact, we expect formal processes to help build agile and flexible cultures. In our experience what companies call “agile” is really just undisciplined. In installing some formality to key processes we’re able to identify areas for creativity and differentiation.
When people focus on what they are uniquely able to contribute their buy-in, and the culture of the organization, significantly improve.
Think of the deliverables of a growth strategy as a long term, multi-dimensional plan that touches every area of the business that impacts growth for your company.
Recommendations will be prioritized based on their expected impact on growth as well as the ease to implement. Roles and responsibilities will be clear between your organization, Sentinel Way and any other third parties contributing to your growth.
We’ll work closely with your team – whether on a remote basis or at your office. We value taking action and driving results so you’ll see us quickly moving to schedule meetings, identify next steps and assign responsibilities.
