Law enforcement agencies are under growing pressure to investigate faster, operate smarter, and serve increasingly complex communities. Yet many still rely on legacy systems that slow progress. Private sector partners are stepping in, offering tools that bridge this divide using a focused revenue growth strategy that balances speed, trust, and long-term impact. A recent MarTech article echoes this challenge more broadly: 73% of CFOs support brand marketing when it’s linked to metrics like customer lifetime value and trust, warning that short-term ROI thinking can sabotage long-term effectiveness.
So, how do companies grow revenue in high-trust, slow-moving industries, where credibility matters more than speed?
That’s the question explored in this episode of While You Were Working, hosted by Chip Rosales, Managing Partner at Rogue Marketing. He is joined by Josh Conklin, Chief Revenue Officer at Leo Technologies, who shares how his company partners with law enforcement to bring advanced data and investigative tools into the field. Their conversation covers how to lead in a mission-driven environment, why simplicity often beats complexity, and how long-term thinking creates meaningful, measurable growth.

- Metrics that Matter: Conklin’s forecasting method centers on pipeline growth, close ratios, and sales cycle lengths—building accurate predictions based on measurable trends rather than optimistic guesswork.
