| Case In Point When you want to create a lean, mean, education selling 
					machine. This newly-appointed customer education sales manager inherited 
					an austerity budget and a stretch revenue goal. But, rather 
					than renegotiate or offer excuses, he determined to make the 
					most of the resources he already had. FUSION identified an opportunity 
					to more than double catalog promotion circulation and frequency 
					through savings in paper, printing and postage costs alone. We singled out the course offerings and customer segments 
					that offered the most revenue upside. And suggested sales 
					campaigns and programs to exploit them. We proposed upgrading the jobs of public course registrars 
					to include enrollee upsell responsibilities. We recommended concentrating the efforts of scarce field 
					sales resources on selling high-ticket annual purchase agreements 
					to high-potential accounts. At year end, our client was pleased to find that he had not 
					only achieved the impossible growth budget but exceeded it! |
