In today’s communications landscape, winning a high-value deal isn’t just about closing one more contract—it’s about securing the future of your business. For many Communications Service Providers (CSPs), the difference between landing a $500K deal and watching it slip away can come down to three critical success factors:


  1. A strategic approach that addresses the customer’s real needs

  2. A clear, compelling demonstration of value

  3. The ability to deliver and onboard effectively


At Creo Solutions, our practitioners have helped CSPs move from “just another option” to “the only choice” by putting these three pieces in place. Let’s explore how.


Why Bigger Deals Require a Different Strategy



Most CSPs have spent years carving out their niche, building a reliable network, and offering high-quality services. But when you aim for larger deals, everything changes. Decision-makers at mid-market and enterprise customers aren’t just buying phone lines or cloud connectivity; they’re investing in solutions that can transform their businesses.


Three Pillars of Landing High-Value Deals


  1. Strategic Engagement


    Without a well-defined plan, you risk wasting time on customer conversations that never lead to closing. You need to uncover real pain points, co-create compelling use cases with your sales team, and develop a roadmap that addresses both the customers’ immediate needs and their long-term goals.


  2. Interactive, Customer-Focused Demonstrations


    Modern buyers expect more than a PowerPoint presentation. They want to see exactly how your solution impacts their day-to-day operations and how it will generate tangible ROI. Interactive demos and personalized proofs-of-concept can spark the “aha!” moment that moves a deal forward.


  3. Seamless Technical Delivery and Onboarding


    Even if you can sell the vision, you need the capabilities to implement it. Integrations, deployment timelines, and post-sale support all play a huge role in whether customers stay and grow or leave for a competitor.


 

How Creo Solutions Helps CSPs Win


1. Blue-Sky Approach for Strategic Clarity


We go beyond recommendations by working directly with your sales team to design and articulate the best solution. Our Blue Sky Workshops bring your experts together with ours to brainstorm high-impact strategies that align with the customer’s biggest priorities. You’ll walk away with a clear game plan and tools for expanding the opportunity’s scope, positioning your offer to solve genuine pain points, and ramping up deal size.


2. Engaging, Interactive Demos


Once you have a plan, it’s time to show - not just tell. Using advanced demo environments and real-world examples, we help your prospects experience your solution in action. They see how it affects their teams, end customers, and bottom line. This hands-on approach goes far beyond generic slide decks, building excitement and confidence at every touchpoint.


3. Full Technical & Onboarding Support


Our engineering and product teams specialize in building on top of existing carrier networks. We seamlessly integrate new features like AI-driven analytics, automation, and vertical-specific solutions right into your infrastructure. From development and testing to deployment and end-user training, we stay engaged so you can deliver on time, on budget, and at the highest standard of quality.


Real-World Insight from Clarity Voice


We recently spoke with Gary Goerke, CEO of Clarity Voice, about how they’ve evolved from a voice-focused company into a vertical-centric provider with unique value propositions. Gary shared:


“Working with Creo Solutions has given us bigger-picture opportunities. I was initially concerned about sharing too much of our strategy. But I took the risk, and it’s turned out better than I imagined.”

For Gary, the key was moving beyond the “basic communications” pitch and focusing on innovations like AI-driven insights and deep analytics that address the rising needs of businesses in specialized industries. By collaborating closely with Creo Solutions, Clarity Voice is rapidly integrating new features into its platform, ensuring that each solution it sells stands out in a crowded market.
