IGNITE Advisory Group and 151 Ventures Bring Customer Advisory Boards & Business Development to SMBs

IGNITE Advisory Group and 151 Ventures partner up to offer small to medium-sized businesses customer advisory board and business development services.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 
PRLog (Press Release) - Jun. 30, 2009 - IGNITE Advisory Group, a specialized consulting firm focused on empowering sales teams at small-to medium-sized (SMB) organizations; and 151 Ventures, a global, execution-focused advisory firm, providing growth stage organizations expertise, relationship connections and hands on executive talent to drive these organizations to profitability and market success; today announced a formal partnership to bring Customer Advisory Board (CAB), Partner Advisory Council (PAC) and business development services to SMBs across the U.S.

“IGNITE created an Executive Customer Council for us that brought a number of executives together to discuss current business drivers and how Millbrook could help them improve their business performance,” said Jack Plunkett, President, Millbrook Inc. (a business intelligence software vendor  for property and casualty insurance carriers).  “The Executive Customer Council far exceeded our original expectations, and we are extremely pleased with the results and professionalism of IGNITE. In fact, we are now talking directly with the C level executives and are on our way to closing a major deal.”

The two firms will work together to bring a unique value proposition to clients.  They will empower management teams with the tools they need to drive enhanced business performance, and likewise will bridge the gap between sales forces and senior decision makers at their target customer and prospect organizations by leveraging customer advisory board, partner advisory council, user group and executive forum services.  

“As the technical founder of a Mobile Compliance Software company I needed experienced help to grow the company,” said Mitchell Balsam, CEO, CommonDesk, LLC.  “However, my company’s cash flow did not support my needs for hiring a full time executive level team. By using the 151 Ventures team, I was able to refine my business and operational plans, focus my sales efforts and launch a channel partner program.  The result was a 250% increase in my revenues in less than six months. As a result of their participation, I was able to hire additional technical resources and my business continues to expand. Their ability to leverage their resources and industry connections is unmatched.  For less than the cost of single new hire I got the execution resources of an entire team.”
