The Successor- If you're the only one selling and you're done being the only one selling.

Your team delivers great work, but every new client still comes in through your own relationships and hustle. You know it doesn't scale, and honestly, you're tired of carrying it. Nobody else on your team has ever been taught to bring in business, so there's been no one to hand it to. My work here is building that muscle in someone other than you —a real successor to the role you've been playing by default, not by choice.

The Systemizer - If a few people are generating some business, but it's ad hoc.

There's activity someone here, someone there, closing deals when a relationship happens to be in the right place. But there's no shared process, no consistent language, and results depend entirely on who happens to be asking. Nobody owns making it repeatable. My work here is turning scattered effort into a system everyone on the team can actually run.

The Revenue Lead - If you've got people doing sales, but you're still running the function off the side of your desk.

There's a small BD effort or a few people carrying targets, but nobody's actually leading them  you're doing it in the gaps between everything else you own. Deals move on instinct, not process, and there's no real accountability for the number. My work here is taking direct ownership of that function: coaching the people you already have, building the pipeline discipline that's missing, and giving you your calendar back.
