Are you and your people time-poor? Do you feel your team is chasing work or responding to tenders that don’t ‘move the dial’? Are you spending time in BD meetings that don’t result in an outcome? Are you unsure about the impact of some of your efforts? You are not alone.
These comments are widespread among professionals. So now is a great time to review your habits and make positive changes in 2023 that will help your team save time and improve their win rate. This session will provide easily taught tools and frameworks that will change your perspectives on business development.
From the session, you will:
- Understand why you’re doing what you’re doing - the difference between BD and Marketing and why it matters
- Understand how much BD you need to be doing - a simple tool to provide insight into the levers that make a difference
- Learn what to do to make meetings matter - practical tips for extracting more value from every encounter without feeling ‘sales-y’
Who should attend: Anyone with lead responsibility for revenue generation in a firm, anyone who oversees front-line professionals that do, anyone who oversees an in-house team that does or anyone from BD and Marketing and has a revenue generating role.
