Fractional CRO and Revenue Operating Partner
The market opportunity may be real. The revenue system may not be ready to deliver it.
One mandate, three possible titles
John leads B2B companies up to $75M in revenue through sales transformation: fixing underperformance, building the revenue organization and preparing the business to scale.

Client results
What owners and investors say after the engagement
The sales infrastructure like the weekly sales meetings, KPIs and CRM kept the Sales team focused and looking forward. John became part of our senior staff and contributed to all elements of the company given his broad experience. I recommend companies consider a Fractional or Outsourced Sales leader as the next logical step to advance the sales vertical, prior to hiring full-time.
John was referred to us as an expert in the channel. We need his sales expertise. The scope immediately broadened to all aspects of our business, from VP of Sales to CXO! We realized margin improvement, revenue improvement and a clearer direction forward.
For any organization seeking a partner who can deliver real impact across the board, I wholeheartedly recommend John Spencer.
Ready to discuss whether an embedded revenue leader is the right step?
Tell John where revenue stands today and what the plan requires. You will leave the call knowing whether advice, a diagnostic, a build or embedded leadership is the right next step.
Sometimes you need an outside perspective. Sometimes you need hands-on help. We’ll agree on the scope, investment, and what completion looks like.
