The challenge
Eightyearsofreferral-onlygrowthcappedrevenueat$6M.Nooutboundmotion,nopipelinecontrol,noforecastvisibility.
The leadership team had never needed to sell. But referrals gave them no control over pipeline timing or volume, and deals stayed small because they came through personal relationships rather than enterprise procurement. Analysts capable of $200K engagements were scoping $60-80K projects.
The approach
KorabuiltHamilton'sfirststructuredgo-to-marketwithoutcompromisingtheirconsultativeDNA.
Instead of cold outreach, we built a thought leadership engine where senior analysts published industry-specific insights that attracted enterprise buyers. We restructured service packaging into three tiers and implemented a systematic referral program that turned word-of-mouth into a predictable, trackable channel.

We were terrified that building a sales motion would make us feel like every other consulting firm. Kora designed something that actually made our brand stronger. The thought leadership approach brings in better prospects than referrals ever did, and our deal sizes have more than doubled because we finally know how to package and price what we do.
