You can benefit from Arteka's sales and business development expertise either by engaging us to help improve your sales processes or by outsourcing some of your sales / business development activity to us. In this way, we provide an experienced sales resource to identify opportunities and progress them through meetings & presentations. Towards the end of the sales cycle, you will take over final commercial and technical negotiations prior to contract signature.

For smaller organisations, our sales / business development expertise can be used on a part-time basis to provide advice and assistance on any aspect of the sales process. Arteka expertise could be used to

• Produce or Review a sales letter for use in mailshots
• Develop presentations that build on the marketing messages
• Provide advice on proposal production
• Review existing proposal structure and content, then recommend improvements.
• Act as a sounding board for new ideas, promotions or processes
• Brainstorm ideas to progress a sales campaign that has stalled
• Develop negotiations tactics

Outsourced sales team

Instead of searching the marketplace for your next salesperson allowing 2 or 3 months to pass from the time you start the search until that person starts work, why not engage Arteka to provide the sales effort on an outsourced basis?

This way, you can be active in your chosen market segments in no more than 3 weeks – not the 3 months it takes to recruit you own staff. Furthermore, you also won't have the hassle of organising a laptop or a phone – we'll take care of that.

You save time. You also save on a recruitment fee and our service can be adjusted to suit your changing business circumstances. You can control the level of sales resource provided by Arteka, simply tell us you would like to have more, or less, effort and leave the rest to us.

Who might find this service of value?

• If you have an urgent need to win more new clients, we can start work within 3 weeks.
• If you have vacancies in your sales team, outsource the headcount to Arteka to save yourself time and effort.
• If you are the owner of a growing small business and are running out of time to allocate consistently to business development activities.
• If you are considering the cost savings of using an external sales team rather than employing a team in-house.
• If you are an established business, you may need to replace an existing team member due to resignation or ill-health.
