“As one of the early pioneers of the SaaS sales model in the UK, unfortunately there was not a ready supply of experienced SaaS salespeople available to recruit from. The brief for Egostream was therefore to recruit ‘raw’ sales talent and then provide a development programme to fast-track them to success.
The results speak for themselves: We have gone from four blank walls to a vibrant, fully SaaS enabled sales operation capable of winning 30 new business deals a month. Our latest recruit has just secured his first order (generated from a cold call) inside 25 days of joining the team!”

“We are at a critical stage of Powerlan’s development and engaged with EGOstream to support the growth and development of each of our businesses. We have been incredibly impressed by their commitment, service and results. The early successes have given us the ability to make bigger and better decisions across our organisation and added confidence in our strategy going into 2008. We look forward to continuing a long and very profitable relationship.”

"I originally retained EGOstream to carry out a Due Diligence project with my Sales and Consulting Divisions. From the outset they very quickly proved themselves to be indispensable in driving the growth of Maconomy UK. Over the past 9 months they have developed the existing infrastructure to reach new levels of performance, provided invaluable direction and support to myself and my leadership team, and attracted highly talented individuals into the business."
Hugh Stafford-Smith, Managing Director, Maconomy UK

"We engaged Egostream with a view to mobilising our sales team and creating a platform for further recruitment. EGOstream were tireless in getting round the business - but more significantly, in creating a very real platform for change based on the grass roots data we gleaned from the process. Subsequently we have taken a lot of unproductive cost out of the team, reinvested some of this money in a more structured sales process and a lead generation programme. The GO-LIVE session ended up spawning an entire change programme - and therefore has been a transformational experience. They said they would "take the lid off the business" - well they certainly achieved that!! NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED or THOSE UNWILLING TO CHANGE!!"

"Having spent 15 years in sales leadership roles I was keen to supplement intuition with a rigorous performance improvement system. On completion of the assessment phase with EGOstream it was clear that whilst my team had the fundamental skills to succeed, they were failing to achieve their full potential.
The EGOstream approach is best described as the difference between training and learning. Training typically is external, imposing tools, techniques and methodologies from the outside in. Learning comes from within. Only when you get to heart of an individuals goals, aspirations and capabilities, can you help them align their effort with positive outcomes.
The implementation phase of the work with EGOstream was a true investment in our people with both employee and corporation as the beneficiaries."

"Choosing a business to help drive your organisation's sales growth is an immense challenge - you have to be able to put great trust in their ability to implement and drive initiatives that match your own ambitions and methods AND consistently deliver results ! In the 3 months that EGOstream have been working with Destiny to date, they have secured the confidence of myself and my team and have become a valued and trusted partner."

"Having selected EGOstream as the firm to help Monactive identify a sales leader, I found the experience to be both efficient and impressive. Understanding Monactive's people and culture was critical when making this hire and EGOstream spent time assessing the existing sales team to gain a deeper understanding of the type of individual required. EGOstream gave honest advice right throughout the process and worked hard to support our final selection."
Dr Ian Dunn, Founder, Monactive

Working with EGOstream we found a true partner that was able to assess our needs, inform our hiring strategy and understand our culture. Armed with that insight, they were incredibly effective at identifying, assessing and putting forward candidates for key positions that met all our criteria and upon selection, ensuring closure. The ratio of interviews to successful hires is the best I have experienced in 25 years in the industry.

"As a services led company, Redstor's ongoing growth is dependent on being able to attract and retain the right individuals who can help develop, influence and sell the services and solutions required by our customers. Finding and developing such talent is a big issue for us which was alleviated by the engagement of EGOstream.
Their methodical approach, including understanding our business, assessing our sales people and putting together a plan to attract the right talent to take the business to the next level was first class.
I am very impressed by their people insight, in particular getting to the real drivers behind each person they work with. Most recently, we retained EGOstream to work with one of our account managers who was making the transition from internal to external sales to provide the extra coaching and development needed to be successful. He is fast becoming one of our top performers.
In summary, EGOstream within a short period of time gave me the confidence to know that I could scale the business around a stream of good quality individuals whom they assessed to be right for us."
Paul Evans, Managing Director, Redstor Limited
