What is Fractional Sales Management?

Fractional Sales Management has become an increasingly popular solution for busy CEOs and growing companies looking to take the next step sensibly. If your business is ready to scale up and move to a new chapter of growth for your company, sales management is required to work with your salespeople or sales team to push for new business and grow. CEOs can often find themselves in one of three scenarios:

  1. There’s no time to engage in the sales leader role effectively on top of other duties.
  2. The CEO doesn’t want to add this to their responsibilities.
  3. They are, admittedly, not the right person for the functional aspect of the role.

Even though your business is ready to take this critical step, you might not be in a position to hire a new sales leader, executive-level or other management-level position within your company full-time. Fractional Sales Management is a great ‘stepping-stone’ before your team is required to bring on a full-time sales leader. Sales leaders are critical to any size of sales team to drive accountability and keep the focus on developing the team to continually set and reach higher goals. Committing to a sales manager would be risky without some proof of concept, and Pivotal Advisors understands that sentiment and has implemented our custom fractional sales management process for numerous companies over the years.

Pivotal Advisors’ Fractional Sales Management provides companies opportunities to have a dedicated sales manager involved and entrenched in their business, but not as a full-time employee. They take the work to develop sales processes and implement them so your existing business leadership can continue to do what they do best and provide the exceptional service your company is known for. In addition to our traditional sales leader abilities, we will work with your company to identify and hire the right person to take on the role full-time when the time comes. With the increasingly popularity of hybrid workplaces and remote work, our Senior Advisors are able to work on a fractional basis and seamlessly integrate with your company to push it forward to reach your goals.

Enhance your leadership skills and proactively build your legacy.
