ABOUT US

We've been here before

The Bridge Group has been helping B2B companies build high-performing GTM teams since 1998. We don't say that to boast — it's relevant because the problems revenue leaders face today aren't new. The names change. The technology changes. The pressure to perform doesn't.

Our team has carried quotas, built teams, and led revenue orgs. We've worked across more than 1,000 projects with 500+ B2B tech companies, which means we've seen what works, what doesn't, and (just as importantly) why. When we make a recommendation, it's grounded in that track record, not a framework we built in a conference room.

We also invest in research in a way most consultancies don't. We've been publishing benchmark studies since 2007. That's nearly two decades of longitudinal data on the models, metrics, and motions that define high-performance. That research informs everything we do.

We measure success the way our clients do: by the business outcome, not the deliverable. That means we'll tell you what you need to hear, adapt when the plan needs to change, and stay in it until the goal is met. We don't disappear after the roadmap is built.

Our goal isn't to be the firm you hire once. It's to be the partner you call the next time something matters.

Smart. Experienced. Kind to animals.

Our history

  • tl-trish

    1998 - TBG is founded

    Trish Bertuzzi starts The Bridge Group with a stubborn belief: B2B companies can build proactive sales teams that are both human and high-performing. What followed was hundreds of clients, more market twists and turns than anyone could have predicted, and a firm that became a trusted partner to some of the most ambitious revenue leaders in B2B.

    2001-2005 - The core team takes shape

    The people who would define The Bridge Group for decades begin to arrive. Laurie Page joins in 2001, Gail Milton in 2005, and Matt and Janet shortly thereafter.
  • tl-2007

    2007 - Inaugural benchmark research

    At a time when B2B sales data was scarce and largely locked behind paywalls, TBG publishes its first metrics research — free and open to the sales community. The goal was simple: give revenue leaders the benchmarks they need to make better decisions. It was the beginning of a research practice that continues to this day.

    2016 - The Sales Development Playbook

    Trish publishes The Sales Development Playbook — a career's worth of insight distilled into 262 pages. It goes on to sell more than 50,000 copies, becoming one of the defining texts on building SDR organizations.
  • tl-lso

    2017 - Lightning Sales Ops

    Matt publishes Lightning Sales Ops, a practical guide to building CRM for sales development teams. Narrower in scope, no less useful to the people who needed it. 
  • tl-ten

    2025 - A research milestone

     TBG publishes the 10th edition of the SDR Metrics Report, followed in 2026 by the 10th edition of the AE Metrics Report. Nearly two decades of longitudinal data on the models, metrics, and motions that define high-performing revenue organizations.

    2026 - A new chapter

    After 28 years, Trish steps back from day-to-day leadership. Kyle Smith, who joined as a consultant in 2014, takes over as CEO. The belief that started the firm hasn't changed. The people carrying it forward have.
