Avenfield
The seat · New head of sales

A new VP of Sales inherits the quota. We help them hit it.

The first 90 days decide a VP's tenure. We install the outbound and pipeline systems that turn a fresh mandate into booked meetings — before the board asks for results.

VP of Sales · Head of SalesThe first 90 days
The internal state

A new VP of Sales walks in with a quota that wasn't theirs yesterday and a forecast they didn't build. The warning signs of a VP who isn't working show inside 30 to 60 days. And the number-one reason VPs lose the seat isn't effort — it's priority dis-alignment with the CEO. The fix is a force-ranked plan the CEO signs off on, pipeline built for quality over volume, and a leading indicator on the board fast.

The first 90 days

The clock they're racing. We build against it.

The window is short and the sequence matters — here's how the strongest operators run it, and where we plug in.

  1. First 30

    Align before you act

    Force-rank your top five priorities and get the CEO to agree to them in writing. Most VPs lose the job on misalignment, not effort — a 60-day plan the CEO signs prevents it.

  2. 31–60

    Fix quality, not just volume

    Improve conversion and velocity on the pipeline you already have. One sales cycle tells you what's real and what's wishful.

  3. 61–90

    Show a leading indicator

    Net-new, attributable pipeline on the board before the board — or the warning signs — start asking questions.

The gaps

What they're up against.

01

An inherited forecast you didn't build

Someone else's optimism, with your name on it now and a board that expects you to make it real.

02

Misalignment with the CEO

The single fastest way to lose the seat: different definitions of what 'good' looks like, discovered too late.

03

Quality, not just more leads

Volume won't fix a conversion problem. The number needs better pipeline, reached at the right moment.

04

The warning signs show fast

No measurable lift in close rates or velocity inside 60 days reads — to a board — as 'not working.'

How we help

What Avenfield does about it.

A motion built to produce a leading indicator before the new leader's first review — then handed over as a system.

Net-new pipeline in weeks

Outbound that books qualified meetings inside the first month, so you have a number to point to immediately.

A 60-day plan the CEO signs

We help you build the force-ranked plan and the leading-indicator scoreboard behind it.

Pipeline built for conversion

Targeting and offer engineered for quality meetings the team can actually close — not vanity volume.

What you get

The first 90 days, accounted for.

Qualified meetings inside the first 30 days
A CEO-aligned 60-day plan
Pipeline built for conversion, not vanity
A leading indicator before the board asks
