Donna brought tailored expertise, best practices, and valuable resources and templates that allowed us to move swiftly.

Now that we have a foundation to build on, we’re ready to engage new customers through a prescriptive, programmatic process that quickly drives consumption along their journey.”

You've cracked the code on acquiring customers. Now you need to close the gap between what you promise and what you deliver

Here's the challenge:

Sales teams focus on possibilities and potential.

Post-sales teams work with day-to-day realities.

When these worlds don’t align, you create a value gap that puts everything at risk—not just retention, but expansion, referrals, team morale, and your company’s reputation in the market.

You know you’re ready for strategic change when:

  • Customer churn is eating into your growth trajectory
  • Teams are exhausted from constant firefighting
  • You’re spending more to onboard customers than makes financial sense
  • Different teams are communicating different outcomes to the same customers
  • Every customer implementation feels like a custom project
Most high-growth companies hit this wall when what got them here won't get them to the next level.

As the first person to define customer onboarding as a strategic discipline, Donna has spent two decades building and refining frameworks that have become industry standards.

Value Gap Analysis

Uncover where you’re losing revenue, retention, and advocacy opportunities—and receive a clear roadmap to fix them.

This comprehensive assessment examines five critical areas: people, processes, technology, scalability, and customer experience. You’ll receive baseline metrics, prioritized findings, and an actionable roadmap with immediate improvements you can implement now, plus strategic initiatives for later.

Perfect for leadership teams who need data-driven insights before committing to larger transformation initiatives.

The Customer Value Accelerator

Stop treating value as a moment. Make it an ongoing competency.

This comprehensive program aligns your cross-functional teams around specific customer business value outcomes that marketing promotes, sales sells, and post-sales delivers.

Move beyond heroics to build scalable systems that turn customer outcomes into predictable revenue growth.

Optimized Onboarding

Transform your customer onboarding through Donna’s Orchestrated Onboarding® framework.

Instead of monolithic deployments that take months, deliver early wins that build momentum and commitment.

Create deliberate “customer hurdles” that ensure better-fit customers while reducing time-to-value by up to 20%.

Scaled Customer Enablement

Stop burning out your teams with one-to-one customer training.

Build persona-based learning pathways and scalable enablement programs that drive product adoption while freeing your people to focus on strategic, high-value work.

Transform customer education from a cost center into a competitive advantage.

Consulting Frequently Asked Questions

Donna’s consulting engagements are designed to help high-growth companies close the gap between what they promise customers and what they actually deliver.

Donna won’t create yet another report that sit on the shelf.  She brings structure, outside perspective, proven frameworks, and practical execution guidance. The goal is to help teams align, make decisions, and improve how customer value is delivered, measured, and scaled.

Donna’s consulting work is designed for B2B companies that are growing quickly and need a more consistent, scalable way to deliver customer value.

This is especially relevant for companies experiencing:

  • Customer churn that is slowing growth
  • Long or inconsistent onboarding
  • Low adoption after implementation
  • Post-sales teams stuck in reactive firefighting
  • Customers not realizing value fast enough
  • Sales, customer success, onboarding, product, and enablement teams working from different definitions of success
  • A need to scale without adding headcount at the same pace

Donna’s consulting engagements include the following.

  • Value Gap Analysis
  • Customer Value Accelerator
  • Optimized Onboarding
  • Scaled Customer Enablement

Each engagement is designed to help teams identify where value delivery is breaking down, align around the outcomes that matter, and create practical systems to improve retention, adoption, expansion, and efficiency. If unsure where to start, contact Donna for a complementary discussion to determine the right fit.

The work typically includes a mix of discovery, stakeholder alignment, facilitated working sessions, recommendations, frameworks, and practical implementation guidance.

A typical engagement includes:

  1. Discovery: Understand the company’s goals, customers, current state, and constraints.
  2. Diagnosis: Identify where value delivery is breaking down.
  3. Alignment: Bring leaders and cross-functional teams together around the right priorities.
  4. Design: Build practical frameworks, processes, and plays.
  5. Execution support: Help the team move from ideas to action.
  6. Next steps: Define what to implement now, what to sequence later, and how to sustain progress.

The exact process depends on the scope of the engagement.

Engagement length depends on the scope, urgency, and complexity of the work. Some projects are focused and time-bound. Others involve a phased approach over several months.

During the initial call, Donna will discuss the company’s goals and recommend the best structure for the work.

Donna works with both. The best results come when leadership is aligned and frontline teams are involved in shaping practical solutions.

Donna often works with executives first to clarify priorities, then brings in the teams responsible for delivering customer outcomes so the work is grounded in reality.

Donna provides both strategy and practical implementation guidance. Many companies do not need more ideas; they need help turning the right ideas into repeatable systems.

Depending on the scope, Donna can help teams define priorities, create frameworks, improve processes, design plays, facilitate working sessions, and support rollout.

Common outcomes include:

  • Clearer alignment around customer value
  • Faster time to value
  • More consistent onboarding
  • Better handoffs between sales and post-sales teams
  • Reduced customer confusion and internal rework
  • Scalable enablement and adoption programs
  • Stronger retention and expansion foundations
  • More confident teams with clearer operating rhythms

Specific results depend on the company’s current state, scope, team readiness, and implementation follow-through.

Yes, when appropriate. Customer and stakeholder interviews can be valuable for uncovering the real value gap, not just the symptoms the team already sees.

Interviews can be included in the scope when deeper discovery is needed.

Yes. Consulting engagements can be delivered virtually, in person, or through a hybrid model. The right format depends on the company’s goals, timeline, team location, and whether the work includes workshops or executive sessions.

At minimum, the process begins with a confidential conversation about the company’s goals, current challenges, customer journey, team structure, and urgency.

For a deeper engagement, Donna may ask for relevant materials such as onboarding processes, customer journey maps, segmentation models, metrics, enablement materials, customer feedback, or current playbooks.

Consulting fees vary based on scope, complexity, timeline, customization, and level of support.

A typical engagement may include:

  • Discovery and planning
  • Stakeholder interviews or assessments, when scoped
  • Review of relevant materials
  • Facilitated working sessions
  • Frameworks, recommendations, and practical tools
  • Roadmap or action plan
  • Follow-up advisory support, depending on scope

The details are defined clearly before the engagement begins.

Absolutely! Some clients start with a focused project and then continue with advisory support to help leaders sequence priorities, make decisions, and keep implementation moving.

This can be structured as short-term follow-up, monthly advisory, or a phased engagement.

Consulting engagements vary based on scope. If a company has a specific budget range, Donna can discuss the best way to create value within that range.

In some cases, a workshop, diagnostic, or focused advisory sprint may be a better starting point than a larger consulting engagement.

Schedule a confidential call to discuss the company’s goals, current challenges, timeline, and what needs to improve. From there, Donna will recommend the best next step and whether a consulting engagement is the right fit.
