Revenue leadership and management reviews · Sales
Review marketing and sales in one meeting, against the revenue they bring in.
Say the marketing head shows 400 leads this month. The sales head says most were junk and the target was missed. The owner leaves the meeting with two stories and no way to tell which one is true.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.
In one paragraph
A revenue leadership review is one regular meeting where the owner or board sees marketing and sales performance together, measured against revenue. GullySales builds the combined report that traces enquiries to closed orders, prepares it before each meeting, and runs the session.
We prepare and run a review that puts both functions on one page. Enquiries, conversion, pipeline and closed revenue sit in one report, so the discussion is about where orders are lost rather than whose department is to blame.
This sits above the marketing plan review. It covers the whole path from first enquiry to money in the bank.
The problem
Does this sound like your business?
What owners tell us on the first call, in their words.
“Marketing and sales report separately with no combined view”
Leadership sees two different reports, in two different meetings, and has to do the work of reconciling them into one picture of revenue performance.
“Each function claims credit differently for the same result”
Marketing counts the leads it generated, sales counts the deals it closed, and with no shared review both stories sound like a good month while revenue sits flat.
“Leadership reviews happen too infrequently to catch a problem early”
Revenue performance is discussed only occasionally at a senior level, so a developing issue is noticed later than it should be.
“There is no single number leadership can hold either function accountable to”
Without a shared revenue view, it is hard to say definitively whether marketing and sales, working together, are actually moving the business forward.
What we do
Everything that is included.
Each deliverable, and what it gets you. Nothing here is an extra.
Combined revenue view
Marketing and sales data brought into one report, tracing the path from enquiry to closed revenue.
Review facilitation
A structured session with leadership, focused on revenue outcomes rather than departmental activity.
Accountability framework
Clarity on which part of the revenue number each function is responsible for, without pitting them against each other.
Early warning indicators
Leading indicators tracked so a revenue problem is visible before it shows up in a closed deal count months later.
Written summary for leadership
A clear, decision-focused summary after each review, suitable for a board or senior leadership record.
How the result is measured
- Revenue against target, viewed as one combined number
- Leading indicators tracked ahead of closed revenue
- Time to detect a developing revenue problem
- Leadership decisions made directly from the review
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Who it is for
This is written for you if these sound familiar.
- Owners with a marketing head and a sales head who each report separately and disagree about lead quality
- Family businesses where a professional sales manager has been hired and the founder wants one honest view of revenue
- Companies where the monthly sales meeting never mentions where the enquiries came from
- Boards or investors asking for a revenue view that marketing and sales cannot give them jointly
Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- The owner still handles marketing and sales personally and already sees both
- You want marketing and sales judged on separate, unconnected measures
- Enquiries are not recorded anywhere yet; start with CRM setup so there is something to combine
How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
First
Your brief
You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.
After the brief
A conversation and a written scope
We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.
Before work starts
Baseline recorded
The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.
After the baseline
The first fix goes live
The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.
As agreed
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.
At renewal
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.
How the work runs
- 1
Understand current reporting
We review how marketing and sales currently report to leadership and where the two views diverge.
- 2
Audit the data available
We check whether marketing and sales data can be reliably combined into a single revenue view.
- 3
Build the combined report
A single report tracing enquiry through to closed revenue is designed and agreed.
- 4
Facilitate the review
A regular leadership session is run, focused on the revenue number and what is driving it.
- 5
Measure and refine
The report and review format are refined based on what leadership actually finds useful.
Why us
Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.
Marketing and sales, as one job
Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.
The person on the first call does the work
No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.
A baseline before anything starts
Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.
The fee in writing, split three ways
Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.
No guarantees we cannot keep
The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
One office, and we say so

Engagement options
Ways to work with us.
Pick the size of commitment that fits. Every option starts with your brief and a conversation.

A call after you send your brief. It says honestly whether you need outside help, and many fixes are ones your own team can make.
Option 2
One fix, scoped
Start with the fix that matters most, such as reply time or follow-up. The fee is in writing before anything starts.
Option 3
An ongoing programme
We run the work, report against the baseline, and you renew on the numbers. The term and the reporting are agreed in writing first.
Option 4
Guidance for your own team or agency
We plan, brief and check the work of your in-house team or current agency, instead of replacing them.
