We help companies transform their sales teams

Organizations often struggle to turn new sales strategies into sales results. If you are launching a new strategy or making a strategic shift, Kodiak Group helps you package that strategy, gain organizational buy-in and launch the transformation that drives adoption and results.

Our view

True sales transformation is more than a training event or a new sales tool

Our approach is tailored to your sales strategy and focused on overcoming your sellers’ top challenges.

Using a collaborative, workshop-driven consulting model, we take the time to understand your business: what’s working and what isn’t. We create custom playbooks and tools for effective qualification, assessment and planning. We help your salespeople start the conversation, run effective meetings and deliver a consistent message. And we give your leaders the tools and frameworks to coach and lead the change.

Sales playbooks

Kodiak creates sales playbooks specifically for you

Playbooks are central to any change initiative. We build yours, launch it to your team, and make sure the change sticks through adoption and reinforcement. All playbooks and tools are deployed on SalesOptyx, our sales enablement platform.

You should consider a new playbook when you are:

Launching new sales messaging

Bringing a new product to market

Scaling up your sales team

Merging teams after an acquisition

Expanding and cross-selling accounts

Sales messaging playbook

Conversations that set you apart

A shift in sales strategy, a new product launch, or onboarding new reps or channel partners can all be a challenge. Messaging playbooks equip sellers to engage new buyers, clearly distinguish your solution from competitive alternatives, and create urgency that accelerates the buying process.

Messaging initiatives we address

Key elements of a sales messaging playbook

Sales process playbook

A process that matches how your customers buy

Processes and tools are essential to winning opportunities, expanding accounts, growing pipeline and managing an accurate forecast. Using Kodiak’s best-practice templates and tools, we accelerate the development of your sales process playbook, tailored to your strategy, your existing infrastructure, your CRM and your tools.

Sales leadership playbook

Managers who coach, not super reps

Improving sales coaching is one of the greatest opportunities to increase sales effectiveness. Organizations often promote their best sellers to managers without equipping them to lead, so they go with what they know: working deals with the reps who have the largest ones. Managers hired from outside coach the way their last company did. The result is teams coached differently, and risk across pipeline growth, deal strategy, forecast accuracy and rep development.

Kodiak’s leadership playbooks are based on proven templates and coaching guides for today’s sales environment. We work with your leadership team to customize them to your strategy and your change initiative.

Sales training

Training built around real opportunities

Effective training today needs a flexible approach. Depending on how your team is distributed, in the field, in the office or at home, Kodiak delivers live in-person, virtual and hybrid programs. Every program applies the concepts to real opportunities and real-world scenarios.

Each offering can be delivered on its own or as part of a comprehensive program.

How our sales transformation playbooks deliver results

Sales enablement

We make sure new learning becomes everyday behavior

Change is hard. Transforming your sales organization is a commitment and an investment that often requires a cultural shift. Our playbooks, sales apps and training programs each have support tools, coaching, reinforcement activities and metrics tracking built in.

Sales transformation is only half the story.

Without sales enablement, your people and your organization will revert right back to where you started.

Playbooks

Playbooks can be specific to a role, solution or industry, and can focus on specific selling scenarios or cover the entire sales process. Teams use them for training, reviews, coaching and meeting preparation, and they can be updated quickly so your team always has the newest messaging.

Digital sales apps

Digital sales apps capture messaging and best practices in interactive, customer-facing apps. Cloud-based and available in web browsers and on tablets, they drive consultative conversations with prospects, help reps talk confidently about new products, markets and value propositions, and build new selling practices into everyday use.

Change management

We manage change so it stays changed

Kodiak applies a change management approach to every project. We identify the individual and organizational behavior changes you need, then deploy a comprehensive approach that includes:

Performance support tools

Manager observation and coaching

Reinforcement activities

Adoption surveys

Results tracking
