Medical billing: rebuilding a more stable sales team
- Situation
- A medical-billing company was struggling with sales-team turnover. Its top salesperson had been promoted to lead the team while retaining individual sales responsibilities, and hiring decisions were not consistently following the agreed process.
- The work
- During a one-year engagement, Steve addressed role clarity, hiring, and selection. After the team fell from six people to one early in the engagement, it was deliberately rebuilt to five, the staffing level identified for the business.
- Result
- Steve estimates that retention rose from 15% to 50% in the first year. The client reported significant revenue growth and meeting its annual goals.
