Helping Technical Innovators Become Enterprise-Sales-Ready Businesses

I work with technical innovators to bridge the gap between strong products and enterprise adoption.

About MeBook a conversation

Strong tech. Real revenues.
But the enterprise sales step-up feels harder than it should.

Your product is usually sound — but what worked for smaller deals rarely holds at enterprise scale, where buying is slower, risk-driven, and relationship-led.

How I help

I work with technical innovators to bridge the gap between strong products and enterprise adoption: 

  • Positioning & Narrative
    Tell your story in language enterprise buyers understand and trust
  • Enterprise Insights
    Evolve your sales motion around how complex buying really works
  • Go-to-Market Readiness
    Align decks, demos, and messaging to buyer expectations
  • Commercial Coaching
    Build pricing, ROI, and partnership logic that supports decisions
  • Credibility
    Establish the trust and empathy that open doors and closes sales

Why sellITbetter

I’ve been on both sides — buying technology inside banks and large organisations and advising innovators selling into them.

That perspective means practical, affordable insight — focused on what actually moves enterprise sales forward.

Who this is for

Technical innovators who:

  • Have strong technology
  • Are generating real revenue
  • Want to succeed in enterprise markets
  • Are finding sales slower and more complex than expected

I’m John Mitchell, founder of sellITbetter.

In short: I help you move from promising technology to credible enterprise partner.
