account expansion &
cross-sell

Expansion of existing accounts requires the implementation of well-defined cross-sell plays. But do all of your sellers really know when to sell the next product?  An accelerator is to create clarity for salespeople on where to go, what to do, what to say and what to show.  DSG can help you drive momentum through creation of cross-sell plays, video-based playbooks, custom training and continuous learning.
