Developing new Business Opportunities in the Energy Business

Why use Opportunity Development Ltd?

How long does it take to recruit a seasoned sales professional?

The average time taken to fill a senior sales position is four to six months - yet the process can often take at least nine months, once contractual notice periods averaging one to three months are included. During this potential period, how many opportunities have been missed?

With Opportunity Development Ltd this time will be dramatically reduced, ensuring these valuable sales opportunities are captured and developed into profitable business.

How much does it cost to employ a seasoned sales resource?

A sales professional in the energy business commands an average salary of £65,000. When coupled with recruitment fees (20% - 25%) and a typical benefits package, the total first year costs are likely to be well in excess of £100,000.

With Opportunity Development Ltd the majority of this expense is minimised. With flexible daily consultancy rates and contract periods Opportunity Development Ltd will deliver value straight away with a package tailored to suit your needs.

...and then they leave!!!

The typical shelf life of a sales resource is eighteen months. If your sales manager decides to move on... then you have wasted your investment, and if they leave because you want them to... then you have wasted your investment!!

So what do I do to increase my Sales Opportunities?

An increasing number of businesses are now realising the benefit of utilising the knowledge, experience and flexibility of an outsourced Sales Consultant. The main benefit is in the delivery of new opportunities to match the speed at which businesses are operating today - although the precious time saved by managers and directors in lengthy and often fruitless recruitment processes is also very welcome!

Working with Opportunity Development Ltd means harnessing the skills and knowledge of a highly experienced resource without the associated risks, delays and costs of direct employment.
