With my experience in B2B marketing and sales, I am happy to help you grow your business. Frank is the founder at Maxiality where they transform B2B companies into the #1 choice in their industry so they consistently generate opportunities, shorten their sales cycle, and lower their acquisition costs. Reaching out to prospects is difficult, especially when selling high-ticket B2B services. Because the sales cycles are long, and the buying committee is large. And as a former SaaS founder, I know how hard this can be. The result is that you’re constantly worrying about finding new clients, spending a lot of your budget on marketing, cold calling, and trying to convert leads into sales. And you are struggling with how to communicate your ACTUAL value. Now, imagine your brand is seen as the ONLY CHOICE in your industry. Because you are the AUTHORITY in your market. And sales doesn’t feel like selling, but more like having casual chats with prospects. Potential clients find YOU instead of you chasing THEM. And your only worry is how to support all that DEMAND. You are in control. And YOU select which prospects you want to work with. We implement Authority Marketing by: ● Leveraging the founders’ expertise and insights by interviewing them ● Creating multi-channel content based on those interviews and a solid content strategy ● Building trust and credibility with the ideal target audience  ● Generating demand and driving growth This will consistently: ● GENERATE OPPORTUNITIES ● SHORTEN SALES CYCLES ● LOWER ACQUISITION COSTS Are you serious about becoming the #1 choice in your industry?
