Cortado Group Success Story

Healthcare Company’s Revenue Growth Increased by 44.5% in One Year

In Q4 of Year 1, this PE-backed healthcare provider needed a reset after major product, brand, and leadership changes. Cortado partnered with the team to redesign the go-to-market and install modern sales and marketing best practices focused on the full patient journey.

  • Marketing
  • Sales

Company’s Challenge
Growth stalled because the commercial system could not convert demand into consistent admissions, and sales and marketing lacked a shared process, roles, and accountability.

  • Marketing org not accountable for qualified pipeline or full-funnel performance
  • Sales motion lacked a staged process, playbooks, and role clarity
  • ICP, personas, and partner strategy were unclear, diluting targeting and spend
  • Post-rebrand transition fragmented messaging across channels and reps
