Business Development
Business development is the truest and most intimate form of marketing. We will act as your business in conclusion to the decision maker, shepherding the process if needed, to the completion of the sale. We will also, in the process, assist you in the continuation of that relationship as long as you deem appropriate and necessary.
Here is our process:
-
Open the door to accounts you perceive as valuable new clients and contracts. Introduction will be at the decision making level, either CEO, Partner or CFO, in a face-to-face appointment.
-
Create a relationship that is colleague built, stressing social first, trust next and conducting a successful business transaction to its conclusion.
-
Find the pain, whether perceived or real, and discern what they need.
-
Continue the relationship with follow-ups that are both social and business in nature. Personal calls, letters, gifts and events when appropriate will cement this activity. The eventual effect will be a confidant relationship that will be very difficult to sever.
-
Ask for referrals and suggest other product opportunities within the client’s scope and needs.
-
The essence of this philosophy is:
-
Solve the Problem
-
Add Value
-
Network exchanging information, ideas and contacts
-
Build relationships
-
Build referral and cross selling opportunities
-
Post-Mortem - if we do not get the account, find out why so that we can improve our process and be more effective next time around.
