(SOUND FAMILIAR?)

Does any of this sound like your week?

✕

Sales only happen when you make them happen.

✕

Revenue is up one month, down the next, and you cannot say why.

✕

Proposals go out, then go quiet.

✕

Your team can talk about the product but cannot close.

✕

You are winging the big conversations and you know it.

✕

Growth means more hours from you, and there are none left.

(EVERY OWNER IN THIS ROOM HAD THE SAME LIST)

None of that means you are bad at sales. It means nobody ever gave you the system. That is the bit we fix.

(WHO WE WORK WITH)

For owners six figures in and stuck at a plateau, we build strategy, systems and people as one engine, from diagnosis through to growth and beyond.

Two decades of selling, in their currency, not ours.

See what we actually do.

The whole approach in Dan's own words: who it is for, how it works and what changes when selling stops depending on you.

(HOW WE WORK)

Diagnose. Train. Embed.

01

Find where revenue leaks

Your business read against the Four Pillars of Sales. Nothing is prescribed before it is diagnosed. The free Scorecard does it in two minutes.

02

Build the skills and the system

Owners become sales leaders. Teams drill the sales conversation until good results stop being luck and start being a system.

03

Make it stick without us

The scoreboard on the wall, the weekly rhythm, the accountability inside the business, still working in 12 months.

(THE METHOD, ON A NAPKIN)
4

Four Pillars of Sales

Culture, rhythm, lead quality, conversion. The diagnosis every engagement starts with.

6

Six C's of the Sell & Scale System

Capture, Create, Connect, Confirm, Commit, Compound. The engine we build in your business.

8

Eight beats of the conversation

From hello to yes, a structure you can rehearse, repeat and hand to your team.

THE
(PROGRAMMES)

Start small.
Climb when it works.

Every client enters with a diagnosis, never a pitch. You start where the Scorecard says you should, and you only climb when the last step has paid for itself.

Sell & Scale Scorecard

Two minutes, twelve statements, an honest reading of which pillar is costing you money. Start here, everyone does.

ABOUT
(DAN)
Dan Hodgson, founder of Urban Spark
(DAN HODGSON, FOUNDER)

A proud Yorkshireman, 25 years selling, 13 running his own business.

I have sold for some of the world's most renowned brands, adidas, AB InBev, Stella Artois, across face to face, e-commerce, B2B and B2C, and grown my own business from a standing start to ten employees and past £2 million in online sales.

I do not promise to deliver results for you. I promise to make you and your business better, so you and your team can achieve the results you want. Yorkshire grit, plain speaking, and strategy you can act on, not admire.

(STRAIGHT ANSWERS)

Questions, answered.

Is this coaching, training or consultancy?+
All three, in the right order. Urban Spark is a sales growth firm, not a training company. We diagnose the business first, train the skills second and embed the system third, through workshops, coaching, mentoring, strategic implementation and training.
Who is it for?+
Founders and owner-managers of small and growing businesses, their salespeople and their teams. If sales still depends on you personally, you are exactly who this was built for.
Where do I start?+
The free Sell & Scale Scorecard. It reads your business against the Four Pillars of Sales in about two minutes and shows you where the gaps are. Everything else follows from that.
How is this different from a sales course?+
A course trains a person. We build a system into the business: the scoreboard on the wall, the weekly rhythm and the accountability that keeps it running. When the trainer leaves, the system stays. That is why it sticks.
Do you only work in York?+
We are proudly based in York and deliver in some of the city's finest rooms, but we work with businesses across the UK, face to face and online.
What does it cost?+
The Scorecard is free, and so is a first conversation with Dan. The programmes are a ladder you climb when each step has paid for itself, and every price is published on its own page. Nobody is ever hard-sold.

When did you last pay yourself what you're worth?

Score your selling in two minutes, free, and find out exactly which pillar is costing you money.
