“We engaged Strategyēm to solve for a complex differentiation problem we were having. Our existing solutions were increasingly lacking differentiation in a slowing market, while we have developed a differentiated new product we were struggling to articulate in the market. Bill & Brian helped us think through the challenge and developed positioning and a narrative that not only works for us, but more importantly is working in the field. We are rapidly building momentum with both customers and partners, and are now on the path we envisioned. The added benefit was aligning our organization and clarifying our mission for our people. We’re looking forward to a great beer cocktail with Brian & Bill at Oktoberfest to celebrate.”

“We engaged Bill & Brian to help us get higher inside client organizations and solidify our value proposition. Our model has been to sell to practitioners, who are individual contributors or managers within our client organizations. We experienced significant growth during the pandemic, but that has since moderated and we have struggled to both limit churn and grow our existing accounts despite the impact we can have. The value we bring was lost or siloed, hidden from senior leaders. Bill & Brian helped us develop a compelling sales play for retail accounts which we are now rolling out to all industry verticals. Our only complaint is we have yet to have the bespoke cocktail Bill & Brian promised us at the end of the project - because we want them to make it for us in person!”

“We engaged StrategyēM with a simple problem, to fix our sales pitch and improve our narrative. We are not in the commerce domain, but had been referred to Bill & Brian through one of our investors. Our product is complex and we struggled to simplify our message and describe who we are - in part because there are a lot of ways we can help our clients, who are largely multi-national, people-intensive services businesses. The StrategyēM guys brought both creativity and an ability to clarify and simplify to the table and not only fixed the pitch, but helped us think throughout our go-to-market. Our project wrapped up at a phenomenal Seattle bar, and we now call the sales presentation we use the “Seattle Deck”.

We have now come back to them for more help - they get us and what we do, and have helped us develop a way to tell our story that is working and put us on a much better foundation.”
