The problem with most outbound isn't the outreach. It's that nobody ever agreed what "working" looks like. This page is about the person who fixes that — and how he works.
Every Desvaux engagement is run by one person. Not a team of juniors — one senior operator, accountable to the scoreboard.
Placeholder · replace with two to three sentences: who you are today, what you do, and the single sharpest credibility line you can offer (years in B2B sales, prior roles, the wedge you personally bring).
Working across South Africa and internationally with owner-operators of professional services firms and early-stage B2B founders who have hit the ceiling that referrals alone can't take them past.
"I kept watching good operators pay agencies for outbound they couldn't measure. Desvaux is what I wish they'd had."
Placeholder · replace with three to four short paragraphs covering: (1) the arc of your career to date — what you've done, at what scale, in which industries; (2) the specific pattern you kept seeing that made you build this business; (3) why you're the right person to solve it — the credibility signals a serious buyer needs to see.
The through-line of the last decade of work has been the same one problem, seen from every angle: the gap between businesses with something worth selling and the customers who would pay for it. That gap doesn't close on its own, and it doesn't close by hiring an SDR into a system that hasn't been designed yet.
Desvaux Consulting was built to close it — with a scope drawn in writing, a scoreboard both sides agree to, and one senior operator on the account.
These aren't values on a wall. They're the operating constraints that every ICP doc, KPI framework, and monthly report gets checked against before it leaves my desk.
"We help businesses grow" is not a thing anyone can hold you to. "45 named accounts sourced, 12 replies, 4 qualified conversations, month one" is. Every proposal and every report is written to that standard.
Diagnose, source, engage, hand off, refine. The path is the same whether you're the ninth client this year or the first — because it's the path that's been tested. What changes engagement to engagement is the ICP and the target, not the method.
Every engagement begins with a written scoreboard both sides sign off on. It removes the "did we agree on that?" conversation from month three. If the scoreboard needs to change later, we change it deliberately — not by drift.
No junior handoff, no account manager between you and the person doing the work. The reason to hire a senior partner is to get a senior partner — on the discovery call, on the weekly review, and on the message that lands in your prospect's inbox.
Thirty minutes. We'll walk through your current pipeline in your own words, sketch the scoreboard we'd run your business against, and give you a straight answer on whether an outbound engine is the right next move. No pitch deck. If it isn't a fit, I'll tell you.
