It’s frustrating when great opportunities feel out of reach

You may have game-changing products the NHS would engage, but it can be hard to identify the right customers to work with and then get through their door. Even when you do, it's a challenge to get across the true total pathway value and benefit of your offer to clinch the deal. It’s frustrating when great opportunities feel out of reach for your team because the pitch process is so complex.

No more chasing dead-end leads in the NHS

The NHS is a beast of an organisation to access from the commissioning side. And without a comprehensive understanding of your target audience, your teams risk wasting time and resources chasing the wrong people. When they’re already busy developing case studies, key opinion leaders and advocates for your products and projects, that doesn’t leave much time left for strategy planning and research.

 You need a guide to show your teams how to avoid dead-end leads, pinpoint target prospects, and create a compelling pitch to land the deals you deserve.

Help your team develop the perfect sales pitch

I understand the challenges you’re up against. I spent ten years in the pharmaceutical industry, working my way up to National Sales Manager. So, I know how exasperating it can be when your efforts seem fruitless. I’ve become a trusted management consultant working inside the NHS for 15 years. I support Integrated Care Systems' development through my work with General Practice in Primary Care Networks, GP federations, and super practices. Utilising pharmaceutical and NHS experience, I use a vast long-established network to connect pharmaceutical companies with the people they need to speak to in the NHS. Clients have doubled their revenue by taking this approach, and I can help you do this too.

Testimonials

“Scott has supported Lumos Diagnostics with an excellent online training package that has enabled the team to really focus in on identifying the right customer and the right message, which is critical for our small team so that we can best utilise the limited resource for maximum return. I'd highly recommend Scott to other teams looking to identify business ready organisations and to move away from acquisition costs to complete pathway costs.”

Marc Winrow

 

Scott ran for us a series of workshops and 1-1 sessions on working with primary care and I could not recommend him highly enough. He was supremely knowledgeable about the changes in the NHS and how best to work with GP networks to achieve shared goals. Over these sessions, he took our group from being extremely ignorant to very confident in the finer details of primary care. No question was too simple and no request too much. We all found his support invaluable and left the sessions much better for them.

Ross Moore

Regional Solutions Manager at Patchwork Health

Having worked with Scott on my Senior sales team's development I can assure you that you will be working with one of the most knowledgeable and enthusiastic coaches who inspires exceptional audience confidence. Scott's years of experience selling into the NHS and then using this knowledge to develop structured courses that are up to date offering measured outcomes, along with his amazing network certainly means that he will bring huge benefits to any organisation who is sensible enough to contract him.

David Laurence,

National Sales Director at Biocomposites

I first had the pleasure of working with Scott back in 2013 whilst I was the Market Access Manger for Acclarent, Johnson and Johnson. Scott provides an honest, open and transparent approach and is able to navigate a complex system and offers tangible solutions. I appreciated Scott’s collaborative and tailored approach and will look forward to continuing partnering in the future.

Testimonials

"Scott's strengths are clearly his most excellent understanding of the NHS."

Scott is working alongside our team, both on an individual and a team training basis. A recent day out with Scott meant he introduced me to Primary Care Network Managers and GP Federation Service Managers across London, leading to two very successful discussions with the potential for two projects that meet all agendas whilst remaining patient-centric. Scott's strengths are clearly his most excellent understanding of the NHS and its ever-evolving landscape, his ability to effortlessly network and paired with his easy manner leads to engaging conversations that ultimately culminates in a bespoke solution offering.
