BMS Progress - The challenge

The Objectives

We wanted to align our sales team with our values and mission, and knew BMS Progress would be an extension of our business to help shape our team to our specific needs.

Continued Professional Development

As a relatively new team, it was crucial to us that best practices were established from the get go. We wanted to craft a sales team that was uniquely iSTORM, whilst providing continued opportunities to progress within the business.

Sell, Sell, Sell

As a growing business, the most important tool for us was having the skills and knowledge to thrive in a competitive market, bring in new business, generate leads, and ultimately ROI.

BMS Progress - The solution

The Solution

We invested in the Level 4 Sales Executive Apprenticeship to create and build our new sales team. The programme was an entirely remote, open cohort which provided us with a great opportunity to network and interact with like-minded people.

Refreshingly Remote Experience

BMS Progress exemplified a refreshing approach to remote training. From start to finish, the programme was extremely engaging, thorough, and a fantastic experience. Being able to connect with like-minded individuals was a great added value.

Excellent Expert Development Coaches

One stand-out experience throughout the programme duration was having a dedicated personal development coach. The access to a hands-on field expert with regular interactions provided fantastic support in the apprenticeship journey, empowering personal and professional development.

The results have been a game-changer. From promotions to confidence building, the team's understanding of sales fundamentals and abilities to go out and find new business has vastly evolved.

A Huge Success

The programme has been super successful and we can certainly say we have seen a positive impact, not only on day-to-day roles but also with securing new business. Joe was promoted to Business Development Manager and we've seen Amelia grow in her first sales role, applying new skills and knowledge daily and exemplifying fantastic confidence in her abilities.

A Blossoming Partnership

Having completed the programme first myself, we knew the quality of the programme was of high standard and that it would provide Amelia with excellent progression opportunities.
