Three quarters in a row, the number slipped.
The CRO was out of answers.
Reps were burning out, the board was circling, and pressure was suffocating.

After one framework from our Revenue Engine OS™, that same org hit 114% the next quarter — with no new hires and no extra leads.

A $40M HR tech firm was losing 6 out of 10 deals to “no decision.”
Their pipeline looked full. It was fiction.
After installing our discovery system, deal velocity jumped 65% and win rates climbed 47%.

A fintech startup took 14 months to ramp reps.
After Venli, they did it in 6 and doubled first-year retention.

That is where we step in — when chaos meets quota pressure.

At Venli Consulting, we help CROs, VPs of Sales, and Revenue Leaders fix the invisible breakdowns that quietly drain $2–$10M+ in revenue every year.

Every strategist and trainer on our team has led sales organizations from the trenches.
We have carried quota, built teams, and scaled revenue firsthand.

Because most sales orgs do not have lazy reps.
They have leaky systems:

→ Discovery that fails to create urgency
→ Demos that die in silence
→ Managers stuck chasing deals instead of building people

I’m Marcus Chan, Founder & CEO of Venli and creator of the Revenue Engine OS™, a proven system used by 100+ organizations to turn chaos into predictable growth.

Before Venli, I led a $195M/year Fortune 500 sales organization, earned 12 promotions in 8 years, and authored a Wall Street Journal bestselling book.

Recognized by Salesforce, LinkedIn, and Forbes, I’ve spent my career helping sales leaders stop gambling on effort and start scaling with systems.

If you lead a sales organization generating at least $10M+ annually, I can show you exactly where your revenue is leaking — and how to fix it systematically so you can scale to $100M and beyond.

Chief Executive Officer

U.S. Chamber of Commerce

During my career with the US Chamber of Commerce, I ascended through roles of increased scope and responsibility for the world’s largest business federation representing 3M+ businesses, associations, and organizations. 

In this role, I held primary P&L accountability for a nation-wide SME unit.

Managing Director, Small and Midsize Business

I received a promotion to assume P&L accountability over the Chamber’s national sales and fundraising center, which oversees political fundraising, special issue fundraising, membership sales, customer service, and membership operations. 

Highlights include…

~  Achieved first revenue increase in 11 years, positioning center to become largest SME fundraising operation in the Chamber. 

~  Doubled revenue-per-sale of specific-issue fundraising by generating substantial new sales and delivering comprehensive fundraising best practice training. 

~  Fostered culture of achievement through strategic hiring, training, and motivational compensation plans.

Managing Director, National Small Business Sales & Contact Center

I advanced the company’s sales and revenue growth objectives by managing an inside sales team of the National Small Business Membership Center. In addition to recruiting, hiring, and coaching Sales Directors (as well as other sales personnel), I defined and executed sales and fundraising messaging. I managed all aspects of sales operations and quality assurance.

Within months, demand dramatically exceeded capacity and the waiting list stretched almost four months long.

Operating Partner - After Hours Flowers: Family owned, retail florist that I co-led the turnaround of, took online, pivoted the business model away from third party wire services, and sold.

In 2019, I walked away from the C-Suite and moved my family to a remote Mexican beach, leaving behind a successful corporate career to pursue a new path.

Prior to going out on my own, I had:

• Been recruited by private equity groups to lead turnarounds as CEO

• Spent 10 years as a senior sales executive, never missing a quota or bonus

• Received 7 promotions in 7 years, rising from sales rep to Managing Director at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the world's largest business federation

• Earned my Executive MBA and was invited to Beta Gamma Sigma as a top 20% student at a top 5% business school

• Founded and turned around several small businesses, two of which we sold

But I got tired of building other people's dreams while putting mine on hold. 

So, my wife and I extended a family vacation to Baja indefinitely, determined to build a new kind of business and lifestyle on our own terms.

As an independent consultant, I've had the pleasure of working with world-class clients like Dan Martell, the world's largest B2B SaaS coach; Robin Robins, the world's largest IT business coach; and other well-known names.

Through my company MSP Sales Partners, we help IT companies and MSPs scale sales through our fractional sales management and strategic consulting services that start with a proprietary 360º Sales Audit. 

Through my community, I coach other B2B founders through the process building and scaling their businesses. 

And through Repeatable Revenue Ventures, I lead the process of providing all the resources a select number of B2B businesses need to 3-5x their business, systematize growth, and exit--including the necessary expertise, people, and capital.

Don’t confuse activity with productivity. 

If you have 1 person hitting your “100 call a day minimums” and missing quotas.

And another person missing your call activity minimums but consistently hitting your quotas.

The answer is NOT make the person hitting quotas start hitting minimum activity targets. 

It’s to figure out HOW they’re getting more output with less input—and operationalize it. 

That’ll make everything you’re doing better. 

More value from your list. 
More revenue from every unit of input. 

And your team will probably like the job better. 

So they’ll stay longer. 
Burnout less. 
And allow you to attract better people. 

Activity is just a means to the end. 

Work backwards from what you REALLY want: productivity.

It's Nov 12. If you're NOT going to hit your annual sales goal this year, read this. 

First, don't give up. 

The work you put in at the end of the year determines how you start the next. 

Start 2026 with momentum, regardless of where 2025 ends. 

Second, don't adjust the annual goal. 

Your goals need to have integrity. Modifying them right before you miss destroys that integrity. 

Revising goals last minute is addictive. It becomes a habit really easily, so avoid at all costs. 

Third, set a "between now and end of year" goal. 

Make it one you can actually hit. Even if it it's embarrassingly low. 

End the year on a win. 

Lastly, perform an autopsy on sales and set a 2026 goal you WILL NOT MISS come hell or high water. 

You don't want to establish a culture of missing goals. 

So take this year's learnings and apply them to make sure that doesn't happen. 

Winning is a habit. Start small and ratchet up over time.

I work out 7x a week—and have for 15+ years.

A friend just asked me what my favorite fitness books are.

I scanned my entire library.

Something interesting I learned about myself today:

I own ONE book on fitness: Tim Ferriss' 4 Hour Body. 

I bought it 15 years ago.

I thought, well let me scan my YouTube history for a recommendation.

None there either, except some bodyweight workouts I pull up while traveling.

Legitimately surprised to realize that as much as I read and learn, I don’t consume fitness content.

I’ve used the same few regimens for more than 15 years:

• Walk 6-10 miles a day
• Strength training 1-4x a week
• Jog 1-2x a week
• Eat decent (not perfect)
• Revisit a sports I love like boxing occasionally 

I’m not going to win a bodybuilding competition, spar with real fighters or place in a triathlon anytime soon.

But at 45, I feel pretty damn good about where I’m at.

Guess that one book was all I needed.

Implementation > Consumption

I was on a coaching call with an MSP owner who's been in business for 12 years. And his close rates have been circling the drain for the past six months.

He's frustrated because he can't figure out what's broken. 

The reps are experienced. 
The process hasn't changed. 
The marketing is still doing its job. 

So what the hell is going on?

Here's what we found, and honestly, it might be happening in your business right now without you even realizing it.

The guy had two sales reps. 

Both were solid. Both had been with him for years. 

But when we dug into the numbers and actually audited how they were spending their time, we uncovered something wild.

One rep was crushing it at opening deals. 

Like legitimately good at starting conversations, getting people on the phone, moving them into discovery. 

The other rep was phenomenal at closing. Give him a qualified opportunity and he'd run discovery like a surgeon, present with confidence, and get the deal across the finish line.

But here's the problem...

Both of them were being asked to do everything. Prospecting. Discovery. Closing. Account management. The whole nine yards.

And that's where the wheels started coming off.

See, when the market was good and leads were flowing, this inefficiency stayed hidden. 

There was enough volume to make up for it. But when things tightened up, when competition got fiercer, when buying cycles stretched out, suddenly those cracks became canyons.

Your best OPENER is wasting half his day trying to close deals he's not great at closing. 

Your best CLOSER is burning time cold calling when he should be running discovery and presenting proposals.

It's like asking your quarterback to also play linebacker. Sure, he might be able to do it. But you're never going to win the Super Bowl that way.

I broke down exactly what we did to fix this, how we restructured the sales team, and why specialization isn't just some fancy business concept. 

It's the difference between a sales operation that scales and one that plateaus.

If your close rates have been dropping and you can't figure out why, this might be the missing piece. I walk through the whole framework in the video: https://lnkd.in/ex28GaX6

"𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲" is one of those things that's hard to define in business. But you definitely know a good one or a bad one when you experience it.

And it's one of the highest leverage tools you have as a leader. Because culture influences how your team communicates, executes, and ultimately how much value they add to the business.

Here are three types of cultures:

𝟭. 𝗗𝗲𝗳𝗮𝘂𝗹𝘁 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲: The owner is oblivious to the fact that culture even exists. A culture develops by default, not by design.

𝟮. 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲: The owner talks about how great the environment is, but employees have a very different perspective. Culture becomes a liability because it erodes trust.

𝟯. 𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲: A leader has a vision for who the team is and how they operate. It's healthy, productive, and compels people to give discretionary effort.

Fifteen years ago, at the US Chamber of Commerce, I inherited a sales team in decline. Losing people. Missing numbers. Toxic culture.

I took one of my biggest career risks and completely changed the culture.

I fired half my team within 90 days. Created core values. Changed how we hired. Fired top salespeople who didn't align.

At first, it didn't look good. Morale was rough. Numbers kept declining.

But then the uptick started.

After the initial uptick, we never missed a goal for 10 years straight.

When I eventually left, it was one of the hardest decisions I'd made. Because I didn't want to leave the culture we'd built. 

I break down the warning signs your culture needs a turnaround and the exact 3D Framework we use at MSP Sales Partners in the full article: https://lnkd.in/e5VTC3sF

Christmas came early for me. 

I was recording a YouTube video when my cell phone rang with a cold call. 

First of all, if you know me, you know that’s weird. I keep my phone on DND permanently and it only gets turned on by accident. 

Second, I answered it. Also rare.

But best of all, this happened while I was already recording—so I just let ot run and captured the whole call on camera. 

I turned it into a video because it’s actually a good call, but there’s a handful of really common mistakes I share with you when the call is done. 

Check it out here:

Your "best" sales rep might be the reason you're not growing.

I know that sounds backwards, but hear me out.

A $7M MSP called me last month.

Close rates tanked.
Revenue flat.
They couldn't figure out why.

We found the problem in 20 minutes.

It wasn't their reps.
It wasn't their process.
It wasn't the market.

It was something WAY more fundamental that almost every MSP gets wrong.

And once we fixed it?

30% growth in Q1 while their competitors stayed flat.

The counterintuitive part?

The "fix" meant their top performers actually did LESS, not more.
