After 17 years in media sales, I thought success meant grinding harder and steering the ship alone.

Then I looked around at the CROs I admired—brilliant, well-paid executives who looked… haggard. Burnt out. Like they’d lost their spark somewhere between board meetings and impossible targets.

That’s when it hit me: the system was broken. And I’d lived it.

I spent those 17 years running into obstacles that shouldn’t have existed, feeling like a one-woman show when sales should have been a team sport. I watched talented leaders march in place, trying the same patch-job solutions while the real problems—misaligned departments, broken attribution, CROs and CMOs working against each other—went unfixed.

For the past 7+ years, my team and I have been fixing foundations, not symptoms.

At RevUp Advisory, we take B2B businesses from duct-taped growth to marketing and sales alignment that actually works. We create cohesion between departments that have been at war, align everything with executive vision, and build operational excellence that turns chaos into consistent revenue.

Here’s the truth: we often rip out bad consulting work first. Everyone says they can drive more sales. But saying it and delivering sustainable results? Two very different things.

The transformation? Those scathing emails from bosses stop coming. Pipeline reports finally line up. Attribution makes sense. And instead of being seen as “that hopeless department,” you’re respected as the strategic partner you always were.

Because here’s what I’ve learned: companies should work smarter, not harder. And when you fix the foundation instead of patching the cracks, everyone gets their spark back.

Ready to stop the patch-jobs and actually scale?

As a dynamic, high EQ leader, my innate talent is my ability to ignite company sales growth, creating a team environment built around passion, excitement and motivation to drive revenue. I lead with building trust and collaboration, both internally and externally.

My solutions-oriented mindset has put me at the forefront of new product launches and initiatives, where I have identified unserved markets and developed products to fit a need and create a niche. This requires trust, credibility and ability to establish rapport with key stakeholders and cross-functional teams.

Leadership has come naturally to me. I evolved from being a top-performing account executive into senior management, by simply acting as a leader amongst my peers. I thrive on helping others learn, grow and develop.

I'm an innovative, revenue generating leader, open to possibilities and always looking for strategic connections. I can be contacted at elainegshui@gmail.com
