      Mining for Growth (MFG) is an intensive intervention designed to mine growth through a systematic inspection of one or multiple select key business drivers (marketing, finance, sales, customer service, etc.). Growth and opportunity are maximised when drivers are optimised and aligned with the others.

       

      Significant growth opportunities with existing sales/customer service are often overlooked by teams anxious to land their next new deal.

       

      Before you invest time and money in new sales/customer service capabilities, make sure you have mined all the opportunities right under your feet.
