Operating Model
Give your commercial team the focus and structure to pursue bigger opportunities, build stronger relationships and grow beyond what individual effort can achieve.
Trusted in complex B2B markets
Does this sound familiar?
Your sales team is capable. The commercial system around it needs to catch up.
The strongest salespeople are often responsible for everything: researching markets, finding the right accounts, starting conversations, maintaining CRM, developing opportunities and looking after customers. As the business grows, some of that work becomes inconsistent or stays with just a few people.
01 / Market development
Market development falls behind
Your team is busy with customers and active deals. The next market, segment or strategic account gets attention when there is time left over.
02 / Dependency
Growth depends on individual people
Relationships, follow-up and knowledge of the market sit in personal inboxes or in the heads of founders and experienced salespeople.
03 / Organisation
More salespeople have not brought more clarity
The team grows, but ownership, handovers and commercial data do not become clearer at the same pace.
Our Insights
Your best salespeople should spend their best hours where they matter most.
In complex B2B sales, expertise, trust and commercial judgment move relationships forward. Research, market development, outreach, CRM and follow-up also matter, but they do not all need to depend on the same person. When those capabilities work together, sales can focus on conversations where its experience makes the biggest difference.
“Structure creates focus. Focus creates better conversations. Better conversations create lasting commercial growth.”

One commercial team, with the right capabilities around sales.
A commercial operating model connects the people, processes and technology behind market development and sales. It gives each activity a clear owner, keeps knowledge available to the team and makes the next commercial step visible.
Market development, business development, CRM and sales become parts of one commercial process.

When one person carries every step from research to closing, which commercial activities receive enough attention, and which disappear when the team gets busy?

The people behind the work
Commercial growth is built between people.
De Grijff works alongside your sales, marketing and leadership teams. We bring structure to market development and take ownership of the work through to a clear commercial handover. The relationship stays close, the activity stays visible and what the market teaches us is shared with your team.
“I believe the best commercial organisations give talented people the focus to do work that genuinely needs their expertise. The rest should be organised just as deliberately.”
— Sander de Grijff, Founder

Where is your commercial organisation losing momentum?
Perhaps sales has little time for new markets. Perhaps opportunities live in individual inboxes. Or perhaps the team has grown faster than the structure around it. A conversation can help identify where greater focus, continuity or shared knowledge would make the biggest difference.
