management The business development function seems to be more matured in
high-tech, and especially the pharma and biotech industries.
Business development professionals frequently have had earlier experience in
sales, financial services, investment banking or management consulting, and
delivery; although some find their route to this area by climbing the corporate
ladder in functions such as operations management. Skill sets and experience for
business-development specialists usually consistofa mixture Of the following
(depending On the business requirements);
• Sales

• Marketing
• Mergers and acquisitions
• Legal
• Strategic
• Proposal management or capture management
Business development is to be thought Of as a marketing tactic. The Objectives
include branding, expansion in markets, new user acquisition, and awareness.
However, the main function Of business development is to utilize partners in
selling to the right customers. Creating opportunities for value to be ongoing in
the long term is important. To be successful in business development the
partnership must be built on strong relationships.
The "pipeline" refers to the flow of potential clients which a company has started
developing. Business development staff assign to each potential client in the
pipeline a percent chance of success, with projected sales-volumes attached.
planners can use the weighted average of all the potential clients in the pipeline to
project staffing to manage the new activity when finalized. Enterprises usually
support pipelines With some kind Of customer relationship management tool or
database, either web-based solution or an in-house system. Sometimes business
development specialists manage and analyze the data to produce sales
management information. Such nunagement of information could include:
• Reasons for wins/losses
• progress of opportunities in relation to the sales process
• Top performing salespeople/sales channels
• Sales of sen.'ices/products
For larger and well-established companies, especially in technology-related
industries, the term "business development" often refers to setting up and
managing strategic relationships and alliances with other, third party companies.
In these instances, the companies may leverage each other's expertise,
technologies or other intellectual property to expand their capacities for
identifying, researching, analyzing and bringing to market new businesses and
new products. Business development focuses on the implementation Of the
strategic business plan through equity financing, acquisition/divestiture Of
technologies, products, and companies, plus the establishment Of strategic
partnerships where appropriate.
Facilitated development
Business Development is affected by external factors. "planning Systems" are
systems set in place in order to regulate businesses. In many cases, ruling agencies
deem the necessary for business survival. There is a section of Business that is
dedicated to facilitating ethical business development in developing countries. In
the early 2000s, Business Ethics was dedicated to helping the Businesses in need
that are in these countries, However, owing to the strong backlash from critics,
they have changed their focus into helping businesses that are going to help the
most people develop. These policies have improved the quality Of life Of the
people. However, this facilitation changes the norms and, in turn, harms some
groups. In order to enforce the new l»licies in an ethical manner Business Ethicists
have createda cost-benefit analysis, placing an emphasis on basic necessities.
These concerns have become so great that Business Ethicists have created a new
department called Development Ethics. Now, instead of simply helping developing
businesses, international business developers have begun ensuring that the
companies keep basic human rights in This especially applies to countries where
the laws are not so strict and allow for abuse to take place. These development
now have to follow the criteria that Penz created, consisting Of: security,
empowerment, rights,
equity, integrity, and cultural freedom. The idea Of providing people With human
rights in order to facilitate business development can be seen through the rapid
development Of China in the last few decades. The that were implemented in
the last couple decades coincide With these In the 1980s, government
policies facilitated the rise in literacy rate and education. The following decade,
healthcare coverage increased significantly. This development was not originally
seen as monetary capital, but instead, it was seen as human capital. With nwre
workers able to bring skill and maximum effort to their workplace, conwanies
were able to develop extremely rapidly,
Reputation building
With companies becoming more and conscious Of ethical practices, closely
watching their selves to avoid scrutiny, a company's reputation has become a
great concern. Ethical business practices are closely tiedwith reputation which
makes it essential to follow ethical guidelines if a company is looking to build their
reputation. In fact, Businesses that develop quickly and successfully have
tendencies to show honesty, impartiality, and service to all of their stakeholders.
In order for a company to be considered "ethical", itmust cater to the needs of the
customer, keeping their best interest in mind. This will influence customers to
make repeated purchases and lead to more profit. In order for a company to build
a strong reputation with their suppliers. it is crucial for them to focus on impartial
business interactions and developing long relationships. These relationships can
lead to mutually-beneficial business deals for both the company and its supplier.
With the employees, they must take their interests into consideration and
facilitate teamwork as opposed to rigorous competition. This ensures that the
company Will keep their most loyal and dedicated employees for as long as
possible. Funding for further development can rise when a company is able to
develop strong relationship with each stakeholder individually, and ethically. This
is based on the concept of reciprocation, which states how in order for social
change to take place between groups of people, trust must be built between them
through mutually beneficial actions. This can be supported through the results of a
questionnaire study that was conducted on technology industries in GTSM and
TSE. In addition, in order fora company to practice business ethics, and ensure
strong business development, it is essential to maintain a relationship with
the environment. With concerns about the recent decline Of the environment
increasing, stakeholders have become more involved in efforts to preserve
resources and a negative impact on the environment brings about risks Of
damaging stakeholder relationships.
CHARACTERSJ'cs OF BUSINESS DEVELOP MENT
Business development is distinctly different than sales. Top business
development professionals become a trusted advisor to clients. This is the key to
a long-term and strategic relationship that adds more value than sales alone.
Companies have a higher expectation Of business development. More than ever,
this Workforce isn'tjustyour Old run-of-the-mill tactical salesperson. Don't getme
Wrong, there is a place for both. But, to be a successful business developer, these
individuals must possess additional skills. Clients require these deeper
relationships too. Business have a lot of options. And, it's easierforthem to
go to your competitor than to do business with someone who doesn't quite cut it.
Great business development professional are responsible for the liveliht»d of the
business. For a business to remain competitive, they not only need to bring a
client to the table once, but are tasked With providing enough ongoing value that
clients stay for the long haul.
This is the nx•dern conundrum Of business development today. In 20 years
serving the market research and consulting communities, I have learned that to
be successful I must continually expand my skills. I have found that success in
business development can be traced to eight attributes and behaviors:
I. Customer Obsession
You understand your client's business and products and services. Taking thata
step further, you must know their internal strategic initiatives and plans. until
you understand this, and can tailor your solution to map to support them in
these, you Will never build a strategic, long-term relationship. NO longer are the
days Of having your product be one to many. If you do this, your offering Will be
one Of tactical products that they could take or leave.
2. Emotionally Intelligent
To build a long-term relationship with key client executives, you must possess a
high level of emotional intelligence. What this means is understand cues
outside of what is written and spoken that are big indicators of creating a
successful business relationship. Understand what motivates your client, about
people's egos and their underlying expectations as well as how these provide
big clues into to how your client Will buy. When you can piece this together
and apply this to the overall business landscape, you can build a relationship
that Will keep a client for life.
3. Digitally relevant
much of business today is done digitally. Your personal and company's online
business presence, social profiles and networks are crucial in business success.
Research is conducted, due diligence is collected; your company's reputation is
compared to your competition's. potential clients aren't just looking at the
company that you represent; they count on you being digitally sawy. They need
to have communication about your products and services easily deliveredto
them digitally and in real They can reach you when it's convenient for them
through this open channel.
4. Domain Expertise
A true business development professional builds deep knowledge of the
industry that they serve. This industry and solution expertise allows you to be
part of the solution, not just a purveyor of it. This unique and inherit
knowledge makes you valuable to the client.
5. Trust
Maintain honesty and integrity with clientno matter what the circumstances.
Make Sure they understand that thev know that they cancount on Vou to be
honest. You are your client's advocate, inside your company and out. Don't ever
give your client a reason to doubt anything that you Say or do.
6. Commitment
Believing in the company and solution, you represent. And, no matter what,
you always have the best interests Of your client at hand. You don't give up, and
you fight for them when needed. The overall commitment in the relationship
builds customers for life.
7. Optimism
You have a positive outlook about business and life in general. Nobody likes to
do business With who is negative and a bummer to be around.
8. perseverance
When the chips are down, you stick with the relationship. Everyone can push
forward in good times and When all is going perfectly as planned. But When it
doesn't go perfectly, you're ready to attack head on. Business isn•talways
easy, butyou're known for being there through thick and thin.
THE IMPORTANCE OF BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
When it comes to organizational growth, business development acts as the thread
that ties together all of a company's functions or departments, helping a business
expand and improve its sales, revenues, product offerings, talent. customer
service and brand awareness.
There are a number of key areas in which someone tasked with business
development can help effect change and promote growth across departments.
Here are four reasons Why business development is important.
It builds important relationships.
Whether cultivating new talent, with prospective partners or courting
l»tential customers, relationship-building is an integral piece of the business
development process. A business developer can hone in on the relationships that
demand the most attention. Connecting with clients, colleagues and other
memtMs of one's network can be fundamental to identifying new business
opportunities, generating leads and making critical hires.And, strengthening
existing relationships will help deliver repeat customers, or provide an opportunity
to hone and enhance talent from Within.
It's a key Strategy for boosting revenue and lowering costs. Growth is the end
game Of business development, and one of the most common metrics for
measuring that growth is the bottom line. Key to the business development
process is devising strategies to help increase the amount of money that's coming
into an organization, while making sure less money is going out. Focusing on
business development can help an organization identify which markets and
products have the most profit potential, and which deals to chase first. Business
development also entails making decisions that help keep costs down as well as
identify areas of growth and the funding needed to facilitate such expansion.
It can help improve the company's overal image. Marketing is vital to a business'
growth, and a business developer can help an organization build a better brand.
A business developer can work closely with the marketing team to develop
campaigns that solidify the company's target audience and reach new customers
and markets. A significant aspect of business development understands the inner
workings of a company's products and services, as well as its customers. Business
development leaders can use these insights to help inform new marketing
campaigns that guide potential customers to products and services that could
benefit

It may open up expansion into new markets. Tapping intonew areas of


opportunity could a lucrative growth strategy, and business development involves
staving on top Of market trends and opportunities. By analyzing demographics
and customer data, a business developer can find ways to enter these markets
and access new segments Of customers.
BUSINESS OBJECTIVES OF A BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Five most important objectives of business may be classified are as follows:
1. ECONOMIC OBJECTIVES,
SOCIAL OBJECTIVES,
HUMAN OBJECTIVES,
4. NATIONAL OBJECTIVES, GLOBAL
OBJECTIVES
Objectives represent the purpose for which an organization has been started.
Objectives guide and govern the actions and behavior of businessmen. According
to William F. Glueck, "Objectives are those ends which the organization seeks to
achieve through its existence and operations." Another term for objectives is
goals. Logically, objectives ought to specify ends or results sought that are derived
from and congruent with the mission the organization has set itself Attempts to
set Objectives should always be guided by references to the mission they are
meant to fulfill. Business Objectives are something Which a business organization
wants to achieve or accomplish over a specified period Of time. These may be to
earn profit for its growth and development, to provide quality goods to its
customers, to protect the environment, etc.
CLASSIFICATION OF OBJECTIVES OF BUSINESS
It is generally believed that a business has a single objective. That is, to make
profit. But it cannot be the only objective of business. While pursuing the objective
of earning profit, business units do keep the interest of their owners in view.
However, any business unit cannot ignore the interests Of its employees,
customers, the community, as well as the interests Of society as a Whole. For
instance, no business can in the long run unless fairwages are paid to the
employees and customer satisfaction is given due importance. Again a business
unit can prosper only if it enjoys the support and goodwill Of people in general.
Business Objectives also need to aimed at contributing to national goals and
aspirations as well as towards international well-being. Thus, the objectives of
business may be classified as;
1. Economic Objectives:
Economic Objectives Of business refer to the objective Of earning profit and also
Other Objectives that are necessary to be pursued to achieve the profit Objective,
Which includes creation Of customers, regular innovations and best possible use
Of available resources.
Profit Earning:
Profit is the lifeblood of business, without which no business can survive in a
competitive market. In fact profit making is the primary objective for which a
business unit is brought into existence. profits must be earned to ensure the
survival of business, its growth and expansion over profits help businessmen
not only to earn their living but alsoto expand their business activities by
reinvesting a part Of the profits. In order to this primary Objective, certain
Other Objectives are also necessary to be pursued by business, Which are as
follows:
(a)Creation Of customers:
A business unit cannot survive unless there are customers to buy the products and
services. Again a businessman can earn profits only when he/she provides quality
gocpds and services at a reasonable price. For this itneeds to attract more
customers for its existing as well as new products. This is achieved with the help of
various marketing activities.
(b)
Innovation means changes, Which bring about improvement in products, process
Of production and distribution of goods. Business units, through innovation, are
able to reduce costby adopting better methods of production and also increase
their sales by attracting customers because of improved products. Reduction in
cost and increase in sales gives profit to the businessmen. Use of power looms in
place of handlooms, use of tractors in place of hand implements in farms etc. are
all the results of innovation.
(c) Best possible use of resources:
As we all know, to run any business we must have sufficient capital or funds. The
amount of capital may be used to buy machinery, raw materials, employ men and
have cash to meet day-to-day expenses. Thus, business activities require various
resources like men, materials, money and machines. The availabilityof these
resources is usually limited. Thus, every business should try to make the best
possible use of these resources. Employing efficient workers, Making full use of
machines and minimizing wastage of raw materials, can achieve this objective.
B. Social Objectives:
Social Objective are those Objectives Of business, which are desired to be
achieved for the benefit of the society. Since business operates in a scxiety by
utilizing its scarce resources, the society expects something in return for its
welfare. No activity of the business should be aimed at giving any kind of trouble
to the society. If business activities lead to socially harmful effects, there is bound
to be public reaction against the business sooner or later. Social objectives of
business include production and supply of quality goods and services, adoption of
fair trade practices and contribution to the general welfare of society and
provision of welfare amenities.

Since the business utilizes the various resources Of the society, the society expects
to get quality goods and services from the business he Objective Of business
should be to produce better quality goods and supply them at the right time and
at a right price It is not desirable on the part of the businessman to supply
adulterated or inferior goods which cause injuries to the customers. They should
charge the price according to the quality of e goods and services provided to the
society. Again, the customers also expect timely supply of all their So it is
important for ever/ business to supply those goods and services ona regular basis.
(ii) Adoption Of Fair Trade Practices:
In every society, activities such as hoarding, black- marketing and over-charging
are considered undesirable. Besides, misleading advertisements Often give a false
impression about the quality Of products. Such deceive the customers and
the businessmen use them for the sake Of making large profits. This is an unfair
trade practice. The business unit must not create artificial scarcity of essential
goods or raise prices for the sake of earning more profits. All these activities earna
bad name and sometimes make the liable for penalty and even under
the law. Therefore, the objective of business should be to adopt fair trade
practices for the welfare of the consumers as well as the society.
Contribution to the General
Welfare Of the Societv:
Business units should work for the general welfare and upliftment Of the society.
This is possible through running Of schools and colleges better education opening

fulfillment Of Of employees as alsoof people Who are disabled,

Opportunities for promotion and advancement in career should alsobe provided
to the employees. Further, grievances of employees should be given prompt
attention and their suggestions should considered seriously when decisions are
made. If employees are happy and satisfiedthey can put then best efforts in work.
(iii)
Employees as human beings always want to grow. Their growth requires proper
training as well as development. Business can prosper if the people employed can
improve their skills and develop their abilities and competencies in course of time.
Thus, it is important that business should arrange training and development
programs for its employees.
peop'e:
Business units being inseparable parts Of society should help backward classes and
also people those are physically and mentally challenged. This can be done in
many ways. For instance, vocational training programs may arranged to improve
the earning capacity Of backward people in the community. While recruiting its
staff, business should give preference to physically and mentally challenged

there, identify opportunities for growth-whether it's in creating new products,
adding more services, breaking into new markets, a combination Of these, or
other opportunities. Consider your options and work out What's best for your
business.

A business development plan that outlines, how you implement your business
strategy. It can be a plan for an individual, a practice or the firm as a whole.
Its scopes both the marketing and sales functions, as they are so inter-wined in
professional services firms.
1. Define your target audience:
Who are you trying to attract as new clients? Focus on your best-fit clients, not all
possible prospects. It is most effective to focus on narrow that you can't achieve
your business goals.
2. Research their issues, buying behavior and your competitors:
The nwre you know about your target audience the better equipped you will be
to attract their attention and communicate how you can help them. What are
their key business issues? Is your expertise relevant to those issues? Where do
they look for advice and inspiration? What is the competitive environment? How
do you stack up?
3. Identify your competitive advantage:

most cost-effective alternative, or the industry's leading expert? This "positioning"
as itis often called, needs to be true provable and relevant to the prospect at the

funnel.
Second, you need a good balance between digital and traditional techniques.

success and failure. Unimplemented strategies don't work. Keep track of what
you do. and when. This will both motivate action and provide a greatstarting
place as you troubleshoot your strategy. Also monitor and record the impacts you
see. The most Obvious affect Will be how much new business you closed. But you
should also monitor new leads or new contracts, at the bare minimum. finally,
don't neglectimportant process Outcomes suchas referrals, new added to your
list, downloads Of content that expose prospects and referral sources to your
expertise.
If you follow these steps you will end up With a business development
strategy and a concrete plan to implement and optimize it.
TOP BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES

Networking: networking is probably the most universally used business


development strategy. It's built on theory that professional services buying
decisions are rooted in relationships, and the best way to develop new
relationships is through face-to-face networking.lt certainly is true that many
relationships do develop in that way. And ifyou are networking With your target
audience, you can develop new business. But there are limitations. Todavs buyers
are Very pressured, and networking is time Consuming. it can be very expensive,
if you consider travel and time away from the office.Newer digital networking
techniques can help on the costand time front. But even social media requires an
investment of time and attention,
Referrals: The close relative of networking and referrals are often seen as the
mechanism that turns networking and clientsatisfaction into new business. You
satisfied clients do the same.Cleariv, referrals do happen, and many firms getmost
or all Of their business from them. But referrals are passive. They rely on your
clients and contacts to identify good prospects for your services and make a
referral at the right time. The problem is referral sources Often do not know the
full range Of how you can help a client. so many referrals are poorly matched to
your capabilities. Other well-matched referrals go unmade because your referral
Source fails to recognize a great prospect when they see one. Finally, prospects
that might be good clients rule out your firm before even talking with you. One
recent study puts the number at over 50K
Sponsorships and advertising: this can develop new business directly by
events and advertising? It would solve a lot Of problems if it works. NO more
trying to get time from fully utilized billable professionals-unfortunately, the
results on this front are not very encouraging. Studies have shown that traditional
advertising is actually asscxiated with slower growth. Only when advertising is
combined with Other techniques, such as speaking atan event, do these
techniques bear fruit. The most promising advertising strategy seems to be well-
targeted digital advertising. This allows firms to get their and offers in front of the
right people at a lower cost.
Outbound telephone and mail: professional services firms have been using phone
calls and mail to directly target potential clients for decades. Target the right firms
and roles with a relevant message and you would except to find new
opportunities that can be developed into clients.There are a couple Of key
challenges With these strategies. First they are relatively expensive, so they need
to be just right to be effective. Second, if you don't catch the prospect at the right
time, your Offer may have no appeal relevance — and consequently, no impact
on business development.The key is to have a very appealing Offer delivered to a
very qualified and responsive list. It's not easvto getthis combination right.
Thought leadership and content marketing:the Strategy is to make your expertise
visible to potential buyers and referral sources. That is accomplished through
writing, speaking or publishing content that demonstrate your expertise and how
it can be applied to solve client problems -Here, the strategy is to make your
expertise visible to potential buyers and referral sources. This is accomplished
through writing, speaking or publishing content that denK'nstrates your expertise
and how it can be applied to solve client problems.
Books, articles and speaking engagements have long been staples Of
professional services business development strategy. Many high visibility
experts have built their practices and firms upon this strategy. It Often takes a
gcx'd part Of a career to execute this approach.
But changing and technology have reshaped this strategy. With the Onset Of
digital communication it is now easier and much faster to establish your expertise
with a target market. Search engines have leveled the playing field so that
relatively unknown individuals and firms can become kncr.vn even outside their
physical region. Webinars have democratized public speaking, and blogs and
websites give every firm a 24/7 presence. Add in video and social media and the
budding expert can access a vastly expanded martetplace.
But these developments also open firms to much greater competition as well. You
may find yourself competing With specialists whom you were never aware Of. The
impact is to raise the stakes on your business strategy.
Combined strategies: it is cornrmn to combine different business development
strategies. For example, networking and referrals are frequently used together.
And on one level, a combined strategy perfect sense.
But there is a hidden danger. For a strategy to perform at its peak, it must be fully
implemented. There is a danger that by attempting to execute too many different
strategies you Will never completely implement any Of them.
Good intentions, no matter how ambitious, are of little real business development
value. Under-investment, lack of follow through and inconsistent effort are the
bane of effective business development.
It is far more effective to fully implement a simple strategy than to dabble in a
complex one. Fewer elements, competently implemented, produce better results.
Next, we turn our attention to the tactics used to implement a high-level strategy.
But firstthere is a bit Of confusion to clear up.
Business Development Vs. Marketing
Marketing is the of determining which products and services you will offer to
which target audiences, at what price. It also addresses how you will position and
promote your firm and it's offerings in the marketplace. The result Of all this
activity Should be an increasing awareness Of firm among your target audience —
and a stronger flow Of qualified leads and opportunities.
Historically, business development has been a subset of the marketing function
that was focused on acquiring new marketing or distribution relationships and
channels. While this role still exists in many companies, the business title
has become interchangeable With many marketing and sales functions.
Business Development vs. Sales
Sale is the task of converting leads or opportunities into new clients. Business
development is a broader term that encompasses many activities beyond the sales
function. And while there is some most traditional BD roles are only lightly
involved in closing new clients.
Business development is Often confused With sales. This is not too surprising
because many people Who are clearly in sales have taken to using the title Of
Business Developer. Presumably this is done because the Organization believes
that the BD designation avoids some possible stigma associated with sales.
Nowhere is this practice more prevalent than in professional services.
Accountants, lavwers and Strategy consultants do not want to be seen as "pushy
sales people." This titular bias is firmly rooted despite the fact that developing new
business is an important rote of most senior members of professional services
firmsSince so many clients want to meet and get to know the professionals they
Will be working With, the Seller-doer role is well established in many firms. The
preference for Seller-doers also tends to discourage firms from fielding a full-time
sales force.
As an alternative approach to leveraging fee-earners' time, some firms have one
or more Business Developers On staff. In the professional services context, these
folks are often involved in lead generation and qualification, as well as supporting
the Seller-doers in their efforts to close new clients. In other organizational
contexts, this role rrùght be thought of as a sales support role.
The result Of this confusing picture is that many professional services firms call
sales "business development" and make it part Of every senior professional's role.
They may also include some marketing functions, such as lead generation and
lead nurturing, into the professional's BD responsibilities.ltis this expanded role,
where business development encompasses the full range Of lead generation,
nurturing and sales tasks, Which we Will concentrate on in this post.
Strategic Business Development
Not all business development is of equal impact. In fact a lot of the activities of
many professionals are very opportunistic and tactical in nature.This is
especiallytrue With many seller-doers. Caught between the pressures Of client
work and an urgent need for new business they cast about for something quick
and easy that Will produce short term results. Of course this is no real strategy
at all.
Strategic business development is the alignment Of business development
prcxesses and With your firm's strategic business goals. The role of strategic
business development is to acquire ideal clients for your highest priority services
using brand promises that you can deliver upon.
Deciding which targets to pursue and strategies to employ to develop new
business is actually a high stakes decision. A good strategy, well implemented, can
drive high levels Of growth and profitability. A faulty strategy can stymie growth
and frustrate valuable talent.
Yet many firms falter at this critical Step. They rely on habit, anecdotes and fads
— or worse still, "this is how we have always done it" In a later section we'll
cover how to develop Vour strategic business development plan. But firstwe'll
cover some Of the strategies that may go into that plan.
Business Development Strategy vs. Tactics
The line between strategy and tactics is not always clear. For example, you can
think of networking as an overall business development strategy or as a tactic to
enhance the impact of a thought leadership strategy, Confusing to be sure.
From our the distinction is around focus and intent. If networking is your
business development strategy all your f'*us should be on making the networking
effective and efficient. You will select tactics that are aimed at making
networking more powerful or easier. You may try out another marketing
technique and drop it if it does not help you implement your networking strategy.
On the other hand. if networking is simply one of many tactics, your decision to
use it will depend on whether it supports your larger strategy. Tactics and
techniques can be tested and easily changed. Strategy, on the Other hand, is a
considered choice and does not change from day to day or week to week.
10 Most Effective Business Development Tactics
Which business tactics are most effective? TO find out, we recently conducted
a study that looked at over professional services firms. The research identified
those firms that were growing at greater than a compound annual growth rate
over a three-year period.
These High Growth firms were compared to firms in the same industry that did
not grow over the same time We then examined which business
development tactics were emplqed by eachgroup and which provided the most
impact-The result is a list of the ten most impactful tactics employed by the High
Growth firms:
Networking at targeted conferences, trade shows and
events providing assessments and/or consultations
Demos (in-person or digital)
4. Using a proposal toolkit
Speaking at targeted conferences or events
6. Video blogging
Creating downloadable, gated content
8. Nurturing prospects through phone calls

9. Publishing written blog posts on your website

10. Digital ads(pay-per-click, banner ads, etc.)
