Deal-Specific SWAT Team Lead

Winning a landmark deal can define a fintech’s trajectory. Yet such pursuits often stall due to fragmented execution, unclear ownership, or lack of senior presence in the sales process.
Samvad Consulting’s Deal-Specific SWAT Team Lead service provides hands-on leadership to steer your most critical enterprise pursuits, from opportunity qualification to contract closure, as if we were part of your internal team.

Drawing from the Zero-Base Playbook and the Relationship-Based Selling (RBS) framework, our approach combines strategic discipline with on-ground ownership to convert high-value opportunities into long-term partnerships.
