The diagnostic

Diagnose first.
Deploy second.

We identify the precise stage where your team's sales capability is breaking down and costing you the most. It could be discovery. It could be the proposal room. It could be how your managers coach. We don't assume. We read it.

Every practitioner on the Closr Sales Academy panel has personally closed the deals, run the teams, and delivered the results they now coach. They weren't just great salespeople. They're also expert coaches who've spent years transferring that capability into other people's hands. That combination is rare.

They're not teaching a framework they studied. They're deploying what they built.

Free.
45 minutes. No obligation.
  • We identify the precise stage where your capability is breaking down.
  • You get a written brief to take to your leadership team.
  • We share the matched practitioner's credentials before anything is agreed.
  • No proposal. No pitch. A clear diagnosis of the gap.
Book the diagnostic

Pilot engagements are a separate step. If the diagnostic identifies a gap, we scope a 1 to 3 day pilot on live business before any longer commitment. You see the work before you sign anything.

What we deploy

Three areas. One precise match.

The diagnostic tells us which one your team needs. We don't deploy all five. We deploy the right one.

01
Consultative selling
Reps learn to sell business outcomes, not product features. Fewer price objections. Higher close rates. Margin that holds at signature. Runs on live deals. 30 to 35% documented improvement across enterprise teams coached.
Live deals · Not a classroom
02
Executive presence and leadership relationship building
Leaders learn to run senior rooms. Economic buyer conversations convert. C-suite deals move when the right person commands the conversation. Deployed by practitioners who have personally run those rooms at CXO level.
CXO-level practitioners
03
AI Enablement
Beyond sales AI fluency: AI Enablement and Adoption coaches who take teams from curiosity to working practice. Delivered by a practitioner who built a live AI platform adopted by 25 enterprise clients before acquisition.
  • AI Workflow Deployment. Converting departmental pain points into working AI solutions on existing tools.
  • AI Governance and Policy. Plain-language AI usage policy, data classification, human-in-the-loop frameworks.
  • AI Literacy and Adoption. Foundation workshops for non-technical teams, structured by readiness tier.
  • Transformation: AI at Work. Full cross-departmental programme covering governance, build, case studies, and champion development.

business solutions.

When the diagnostic surfaces a gap that doesn't fit the five areas above, we scope a bespoke engagement matched to your specific situation. Your problem. Your team. Your commercial context.

Every engagement starts with the diagnostic. Once we understand the gap precisely, we design the intervention around it. Not the other way around.

Your gap. Your practitioner. Your terms.

Common questions

Before you book a diagnostic.

Straight answers to what CEOs and CHROs usually ask first.

What is the Closr Sales Academy?
A sales performance and coaching practice that matches individual practitioners to a specific capability gap. It's not a training catalogue.
Is Sales Academy a separate service from Closr's search work?
Yes. It's a separate engagement for companies who've diagnosed a sales capability gap rather than a hiring gap. Every engagement starts with a free diagnostic.
What does the free diagnostic involve?
A 45-minute conversation to identify where a sales team's capability is actually breaking down, followed by a written brief. No obligation, no pitch.
Who delivers the coaching?
Practitioners who've personally closed deals and led teams at the level they now coach, not certified trainers running a generic curriculum. No names are shared until a contract is signed.
Does Closr Sales Academy cover AI adoption, not just sales skills?
Yes. Alongside consultative selling and executive presence coaching, the panel includes AI Enablement and Adoption coaches for workflow deployment, governance, literacy, and cross-departmental AI transformation.
