The situation.

A B2B business had not seen the expected increase in revenue following its sales effort, having witnessed roughly a 30% decline in average volumes and a 10% decline in rate.

The process.

We created and analysed market data to confirm the drivers were internal, then accessed raw internal data to surface the key trends: declining quality of customer acquisition and a potential systematic operational decline affecting revenue. We recommended more stringent, data-driven site acquisition focused on time to profitability, and a review and refresh of internal operational processes.

The outcome.

We identified the drivers of a roughly 20% gap to plan and explained £3m of revenue drivers with clear recommendations to achieve uplift.

You made a really positive impression, explaining our key challenges very well. Our board encouraged us to use DVS in future if a need arises.
