Getty Images: Sales Transformation Drives Account Growth in a Down Market
How ASLAN helped Getty unify how reps sell, lead, and grow accounts across the globe.

Overview
The market was shrinking, and Getty Images was feeling the pressure. Sales teams were focused on renewals. Deals were getting smaller. And competitors were closing in on price.
Leadership saw the writing on the wall. This wasn’t about fixing one team. It was about aligning the entire sales org around a new way to sell. That’s where ASLAN came in.

THE CHALLENGE
Stalled Growth, Price Pressure, and Fragmented Approach
Getty had smart, capable reps. The issue wasn’t effort. It was alignment.
Each team was doing what they thought worked best, but without a shared strategy, the experience for customers was fractured. Expansion opportunities slipped through the cracks, and margin pressure kept building.
The result? An inconsistent customer experience and missed chances to protect margin or deepen relationships:
- Account Managers processed renewals but rarely uncovered growth opportunities.
- Strategic Sellers struggled to expand their reach inside large accounts.
- Sales Leaders couldn’t reinforce consistent behaviors without a shared framework.
Revenue wasn’t eroding because reps didn’t care. It was eroding because no one was speaking the same language.
