ROI Questions

Honest answers about what to expect from a CaptivIQ engagement.

Is B2B sales consulting worth it?
For companies with average B2B contract values above $50,000 and current pipeline gaps, yes — the ROI math is typically compelling. The key variable is your average contract value. The higher it is, the faster the payback period. For companies with contract values below $25,000, the math is harder to justify and we'll tell you that honestly on the discovery call.
What if we don't close any additional deals?
That's a legitimate risk. CaptivIQ doesn't guarantee closed deals — no honest consulting firm does. What we guarantee is a structured, proven outbound process that maximizes your probability of closing. The Pipeline Audit at $3,500 is the lowest-risk starting point — it tells you exactly where your pipeline is breaking before you commit to a larger engagement.
How quickly will I see results?
Most clients see qualified pipeline conversations — real meetings with real decision-makers — within 60 to 90 days. Revenue conversion follows your natural sales cycle, typically 3 to 6 months for B2B deals. Deal Rescue and RFP Support can produce results faster because they work on active opportunities rather than building pipeline from scratch.

Run the Numbers. Then Book the Call.

If your contract values are above $50,000 and your pipeline is inconsistent — the ROI case is almost always there. Let's verify it together in 30 minutes.
