It's an exciting time to join ALTAVI. We help companies face one of the most challenging aspects of management: sales implementation. US businesses spend over $900 billion on SG&A, and to put that figure in perspective, they spend roughly $210 billion on marketing/advertising. As advancements/efficiencies drive costs down in operations and other core business units, SG&A is stubbornly refusing to budge. All eyes are on Sales.
ALTAVI has a unique position and is a pioneer in a niche market; we bring together corporate leadership and tech talent to help companies increase Sales ROI. We consult, customize and implement CRM and CPQ; we fix data governance issues; we help integrate Sales IT with other core business units; we reengineer process; we help companies manage change and align strategy with sales practice. Our work helps organizations out-achieve their peers.
The model is working, and we are growing rapidly. We started the year expecting 200% growth and are now expecting 500% or more. In the last year, we have helped companies and nonprofits including Southern States LLC, Johnson & Johnson, Alphagraphics, Atlanta Center for Self-Sufficiency and Innvision, to name a few.
