True Story · B2B Agency · Rome

The founder recovered 32 hours a week and the agency scaled by 78%.

Company
B2B communications agency, 18 employees, Rome. €1.8M revenue, focused on media relations and content for industrial companies.
Problem
Founder stuck 60h/week on operations. Business stalled for 18 months. Good team but not autonomous: every decision went through the founder. Impossible to grow without cloning him.
Solution
Monthly strategic mentorship for 12 months with Erik Senesi (FlipUp founder) + sales team training on lead gen, LinkedIn, B2B negotiation. Delegation framework, OKRs, governance. 4-phase scaling plan.
"The most valuable thing wasn't the growing revenue. It was to stop being the obstacle to my own company. Now the team makes decisions on its own and I can finally think strategically, not put out fires."

You have a great team.
But they lack the right skills.

Generic courses that don't apply

You've already paid for courses, subscriptions, certifications. Nice theory, zero practice. Nobody goes back to the office and really changes the way they work.

Your team learns on the job, badly

People learn in the field through trial and error. Clients pay for these mistakes. Nobody formalizes the right method and time is wasted every time.

You're alone making strategic decisions

As a founder or CEO you have no one to bounce ideas off. Your team can't give you an external perspective. You lack real sparring partners.

You don't know what you don't know

The world of marketing and AI changes every 3 months. Prompts, tools, trends. You're trying to keep up but you always feel one step behind.

Result: slow growth, repeated mistakes
and decisions made on partial data or gut feeling.

Training that's practical, not academic.
Consulting that's strategic, not motivational.

The FlipUp method is one: first we do, then we teach. Everything we transfer to your team has been tested on our clients. Everything we share in mentorship comes from our real experience, not from summarized books.

Tailored to your context

No standard courses. We design the training path around your sector, your clients, your processes. The exercises are on your real business, not on fictional cases.

● Tailored

Practice, not theory

80% of the time is practice: templates, AI prompts, exercises with immediate feedback. Students go back to the office with concrete tools, not notes to reread.

● Hands-on

Those who teach are those who do

Your mentors are Erik Senesi (FlipUp founder) and the senior strategists who work with 150+ B2B companies every day. Not consultants on the payroll: real operators.

● Real operators

12 areas of expertise.
All B2B verticals.

Strategic B2B marketing

Positioning, ICP, value proposition, GTM.

LinkedIn lead generation

Prospecting, outreach, copy that converts.

Sales & negotiation

Pipeline, qualification, closing, objection handling.

The skills that change everything.

"The mentorship with Erik was the best investment I've made as a founder. In 6 months I understood things no book had ever shown me. Today I work half the hours and bill twice as much."
Francesco P.CEO · B2B communications agency · Rome
"Team training on LinkedIn outreach: in 3 months our salespeople generate 4x more appointments. And they do it on their own, we no longer depend on external agencies."
Elena M.Sales director · Mechanical · Padua
"The AI part was a game changer. The team now uses prompts and workflows that let them do in 2 hours things that used to take 2 days. Investment paid back in 3 months."
Andrea L.Founder · Software house · Milan

What we get asked most often.

How is it different from an online course?+
Three things: (1) it's personalized to your business (exercises on your real case, not fictional ones), (2) it's taught by someone who does B2B marketing every day for 150+ companies, not youtubers, (3) it includes direct coaching to apply what you learn, not just videos.
How much does it cost?+
Team training: from €4,500 for an intensive workshop to €25,000+ for a complete annual path with 10+ people. 1:1 founder mentorship: from €1,500/month up to €4,500/month depending on intensity. Precise quote after the discovery call.
Is the training in-classroom or online?+
Both. Live workshops can be in the classroom at your premises or online. The FlipUp Academy platform always has on-demand content accessible 24/7. Founder mentorship is typically online via call.
How long does a training path last?+
It depends on the topic. An intensive workshop: 1-3 days. A path on one area (e.g. LinkedIn lead gen): 4-8 weeks. A complete program for a sales team: 6-12 months. Founder mentorship is typically on an annual basis.
Can I use interprofessional funds (Fondimpresa, Fondir, etc)?+
Yes, our courses are eligible for most interprofessional funds. We help you with the necessary paperwork. That way you recover part or all of the investment.
Do you give a certification at the end?+
Yes, "FlipUp Academy Certified" with a LinkedIn badge upon completing the paths. More importantly: an assessment of the skills acquired on real cases, not a mere certificate of attendance.
Who is Erik Senesi, the founder?+
Founder of FlipUp, 10+ years of B2B marketing, author of the book "Comincia dal Pre-Marketing". Over 150 companies served, 4 countries. Senior mentor for all our C-level mentorship.
How do we measure the success of the training?+
We define 3 KPIs together before starting (e.g. leads generated by the team, deal closing time, effectiveness of sales calls). We measure before and after the path. Training is an investment, not a cost: it must have a measurable ROI.
