3X Ad Sales Revenue, 2X Client Renewals - A Sales Transformation Story from the Media & Press Industry

It started with a familiar question from the sales head

"Why are we struggling to close deals when our brand reach is unmatched?"

A leading national network across print, digital, and broadcast was facing a storm of challenges.

Client budgets were shrinking, agencies demanded steeper discounts, and advertisers were shifting to digital-first competitors.

Sales teams were stretched thin chasing renewals, managing agency relationships, and juggling multiple rate cards with little clarity on value. Despite high effort, conversions and collections kept dropping.

They realized this wasn’t a marketing problem. It was a sales problem.

That’s when they partnered with Dishah Consultants to transform their ad sales teams from space sellers into business growth advisors.

What followed was a transformation that changed how the brand sold and how clients perceived value.
