Challenge

LXS had set themselves an ambitious growth target of 35 to 45% year on year. Their areas of focus were to increase yields in both sponsorship and delegate sales; grow accounts by upselling multiple events to stakeholders with fewer interactions; increase group delegate bookings rather than individual sales, and increase account retention. At the same time, they have been rolling out a graduate recruitment programme to attract the brightest and best to become their future sales stars. To do so, they have to prove their ongoing investment in onboarding, training and personal growth.

Solution

Flume really stood out, offering a bespoke product in a crowded marketplace. Their approach to sales chimed with our own thinking but we wanted a new, external voice to create consistency across the team and to reinforce the key messages. Flume put so much effort into tailoring the workshops around our people and our business. The learning is targeted, not just some random, generic lessons dusted off from a hundred other clients. The combination of in-person and bite-sized platform learning is perfect for our team, allowing individuals to dip in and out without disrupting their day-to-day workload. And the gamification elements always inspire strong, healthy competition.

Result

“Flume got our team engaged, focused and raring to go. Everyone has bought into the programme, creating consistency across the board.

159% increase in revenue YOY
25% increase in sponsorship yield
