Capabilities
Five places where strategy lands.
Strategy work that ends in a plan your team can ship. These are the five places where the plan has to land.
Brand and positioning
Most industrial brands sound identical. "Trusted partner." "Quality solutions." "Customer-focused." We find the sharp, defensible position your buyers care about, then rebuild the brand around it. Positioning, messaging, visual identity, and the story every room hears when your name comes up.
Naming, positioning, and brand architecture for repositioning engagements
Customer and competitor interviews we run ourselves, with real people on the phone
Sharp positioning statement grounded in real buyer language
A messaging house that answers who you are, why you, and why now
Visual identity and roll-out across web, sales, and trade channels
US-Mexico and LATAM market entry
We've helped industrial and energy brands cross the border in both directions for 30 years. Market entry work that goes past the slide deck: the legal structure, the first five hires, the first two customers, and the distribution partners worth talking to. HQs in Houston and Mexico City. Bilingual by default.
Market and channel mapping with named players
Go-to-market sequencing (which segment first, and why)
Local partnership and distribution strategy
Bilingual sales and marketing enablement
First-90-days operating plan
Pricing and packaging
Complex offers die from confusing pricing more than from missing features. We do the willingness-to-pay research, then restructure pricing and packaging so it's easier to buy, easier to sell, and harder for procurement to commoditize.
Willingness-to-pay and value-based pricing research
Packaging that maps to how buyers make the call
Discounting guardrails and deal desk playbook
Service and subscription pricing for traditionally one-time offers
Sales enablement so reps can defend the number
Sales and marketing operating model
The hand-offs between marketing, SDR, sales, and customer success are where deals leak. We map the real funnel, rebuild the stage definitions, and install the CRM cleanup and reporting ourselves. That last part is what most consultancies skip.
Funnel and stage-gate redesign
Roles and responsibilities across MQL, close, and renewal
CRM cleanup we do ourselves, inside your instance
Pipeline and forecast rituals leadership can trust
Commission and incentive design
KPIs leadership can act on
Most dashboards show either everything or the wrong things. We pick the small set of leading indicators that predict revenue, wire them to live data, and kill the rest.
Leading vs. lagging indicator selection
Dashboards on live ERP, CRM, and web data
A reporting cadence with weekly ops reviews and a monthly board view
Target-setting grounded in real capacity and real pipeline
Anomaly alerts so trouble surfaces before the quarter ends
Engagement
Ten weeks from thesis to priced plan.
Weeks 1 to 2
Scope the thesis
Two weeks of leadership, customer, and competitor interviews. We come back with the sharp position, the pricing we've tested, and the go-to-market that holds up under scrutiny.
Weeks 3 to 6
Pressure-test with buyers
Real calls with real buyers to validate the story. We put the positioning in front of them, price it, and watch where they push back.
Weeks 7 to 10
Ship the plan
Priced offer, sales playbook, messaging house, and a dated launch plan. Your team can run it without us in the room Monday morning.
Week 10+
Operating rhythm
We stay on call for the first two quarters. Weekly ops review, monthly board view, and the small set of leading indicators that predict revenue.
