What is Embedded Commercial Operations?

We believe commercial operations should run to a standard, not depend on who is in the seat.

Switch runs a defined part of your commercial operations for a fixed annual fee tied to agreed service levels.

Switch arrives with proven frameworks, so the work starts quickly and scales with your business.

Why Switch

Consistent execution

Results improve every month, not only when the right person is in the seat.

No key-person risk

Turnover or leave doesn’t put your targets at risk, because the operating model sits with Switch, not with an individual.

Growth without adding headcount

You can grow revenue without adding fixed cost or management overhead to your organization.

Scope that adjusts as priorities change

As your priorities shift, the scope shifts with them, without rehiring or renegotiating.

Managed on service levels

You manage Switch on results, with service levels you can hold us to.

Fixed, predictable cost

A fixed annual fee means your commercial operations spend is known in advance.
