In this preparatory session, you will learn how professional service providers generate clients. This will give you an ‘Executive Overview’ of the Client Development Process involving 5 key functions:
- FUELING
Your business or practice runs on a ‘fuel’ called . . . CLIENTS! Without enough of or, the appropriate kind of people to begin your client development process, you’ll find you’ll be working harder than you like, longer than you thought and for far less than you deserve. - QUALIFYING
