Case Studies

Bnr Case Study –
inSPPECt Assessment

Big Nerd Ranch (BNR), a premier application development and training firm, was seeking to capitalize on all revenue streams available to them within their core accounts, knowing that additional opportunity was there but not being pursued.

It engaged Span the Chasm, and through our inSPPECt Assessment service, we took an end to end view of BNR’s process and approach, uncovering BNR’s core challenges and created a clear execution path by building a prescriptive plan to achieve BNR’s goals.

In less than 6 months of engagement, monthly revenue stabilized and we grew their sales productivity by 307%.

Sales and Services teams engaged in growing their biggest accounts 2 – 4x previous rates.  Additionally, BNC positioned themselves to deliver holistic value to their customers and moved from being “Engineering Centric” to “Customer Centric”.

Cinemassive Case Study –
Talent Management

CineMassive, a premier producer of high-performing video wall systems, lost their VP of Sales unexpectedly midway through the year, putting their pipeline and growth plans at risk. With the bulk of their sales happening in Q3 and Q4, there was an immediate need to stabilize and grow their pipeline. In addition, CineMassive had a large product launch planned for the following year. Their sales teams needed to be in the field and producing immediately.

Steve Keck at Span the Chasm was chosen by CineMassive due to our experience transforming front line sales teams. Span the Chasm’s Talent Management service brought a clear understanding about the current capabilities of the sales team, and designed a matrix for benchmarking all future talent.

Span the Chasm’s comprehensive Talent Management service uncovered several challenges:

    • Not all members of the sales team were qualified to manage the complex sales process
    • They lacked a cohesive sales process in place to support the team
    • Half of the sales team was below 50% YTD of their sales goal well into Q3
    • A hiring process was missing to identify the right candidates
    • An undefined culture made it difficult to sell candidates into the organization
