Quality of Sales Framework to be Showcased at ACG Dealfest Northeast on June 11

Ed Marsh and Ben Tagoe will share these value creation insights and techniques with sponsors, investment bankers and other industry experts at The Association for Corporate Growth Dealfest Northeast on June 11 at the BCEC.

Quality of Sales delivers empirical data on existing sales teams and prospective sales hires. Using a predictively accurate methodology, considering 21 sales-specific competencies and various team level systems and processes, a QoS Sales Team Evaluation provides detailed, actionable data on individuals and the team in aggregate.

This can improve diligence by helping sponsors test their models and investment thesis against a company's sales team's ability to execute. The information can then accelerate integration by providing prioritization for talent and process improvement decisions. For existing portcos with growth milestones in jeopardy, it can help to identify root causes of underperformance. And as companies scale it helps to consistently identify the superb sales talent that drives value creation.

Ed Marsh, founder of Ed Marsh Consulting, says "The data on value creation is clear. Sponsors have to grow organically and expand margins. Many B2B sales teams struggle specifically with those to tasks. Quality of Sales shows why, and what to do."

Ben Tagoe, CEO of PE-backed Objective Management Group continues, "Quality of Sales provides sponsors with data about the most important question for their investment – how effective is the sales team? A Quality of Sales report offers diagnostics about a company's pipeline health, insights into root causes of sales underperformance, and tools to consistently hire superb sales talent. It is a proven way to accelerate value creation."
