Welcome to Scale Your Sales weekly Monday 12 midnight GMT podcast, No 8. of 42 Best Podcast For Every Sales Professional 2020. Dedicated to learning from amazing experts and influencers to help you on your journey to Scale Your Sales. A show created for B2B executives, sales leaders, key account managers and customer serving professionals, to engage with lively conversations on customer experiences, strategic revenue growth and modern sales know-how.

I am Janice B Gordon, the Customer Growth Expert. Sales is not a function of the business; sales are the primary outcome of the business and marketing is a part of this sales process rather than the other way around. What is critical to a productive business is how the customer experiences the sales process and what outcomes the customer requires from the sale. The more focused you are on the customer outcome the more productive your sales process. More on Scale Your Sales website.

In this weeks’ Scale Your Sales Podcast episode, my guest is Simon Sharp.

 

I’m CEO of Verto, a UK SaaS platform, the no 1 solution powering portfolio, programme and project management (P3M) across the UK public sector. An entrepreneur and GTM leader, I’ve co-founded RiskXchange, founded RockSec360 and held global revenue leadership roles scaling SaaS, cybersecurity, and fraud prevention companies from £1M to £100M+ worldwide.

 

In today’s episode of Scale Your Sales podcast, Simon examine how science-led, data-driven approaches—enhanced by AI—are reshaping revenue architecture and modern sales leadership. Explore what differentiates organizations that achieve predictable ARR growth from those that plateau, with a strong focus on customer-centric growth systems, meaningful client relationships, and the evolving role of technology in sales. Drawing on his experience scaling multiple PE-backed SaaS businesses and his work with Winning by Design methodologies, Simon shares practical insights into how AI is improving efficiency and customer focus.
