ValuEngager's goal is to help businesses or divisions engage and capture the full value of both your products and employees. Our best work is defined by us as the work that drops dollars to the bottom line. We coach high level executives and teams of executives to improve two of the most important things in business: Value driven selling and margin management An approach to selling that attempts to quantify or "dollarize" for a customer the economic value, or monetary worth, of your firm and its products and services versus competing products, services and firms. Value selling organizations drive margins up and gravitate your product and Customer mix to more stable and profitable market spaces. Enterprise-wide employee engagement improvement An engaged employee is one who is fully involved in, and enthusiastic about, his or her work and thus will act in a way that furthers their organization's interests. Millions of dollars of research has proven that engaged employees are more productive, more profitable, more customer-focused, safer, and more likely to withstand temptations to leave.
