Strategic Sales and Marketing Optimization for an Executive Education Business

While established in one country, it faced challenges starting fresh in new markets, where business and academic functions moved at different speeds.

The challenge

The company needed to align its academic and business functions while navigating market expansion with limited resources. Optimizing sales and marketing processes was crucial to maintaining competitiveness in a rapidly evolving industry. The company needed an approach that was hands-on, data-driven, and strategically aligned with its long-term goals.

Approach

With a fresh pair of eyes as an external consultant, we took immediate action during a crisis, offering a hands-on, solution-oriented approach to drive immediate sales results through performance marketing. Once stabilized, we implemented a more structured, data-driven methodology as marketing director ad interim, focusing on:

  1. Performance Marketing to optimize digital sales.
  2. Data-Driven Decision Making using regular reporting, analysis, and goal setting.
  3. Team and Process Restructuring to streamline operations.
      4. Strategic Alignment bridging theory and day-to-day operations.

 

Why does the PEX approach fit so well in this scenario ?

Our approach is perfect for businesses in transition, especially when resources are limited, and quick, impactful changes are needed. We combined a hands-on, crisis-driven approach with strategic, data-driven insights to deliver immediate results and lay the groundwork for future growth. The PEX method blends business acumen with an empathetic understanding of internal dynamics, ensuring that the marketing and sales transformations were not only effective but sustainable. By focusing on both business objectives and people development, we helped align the academic and business sides of the company for long-term success.
