You have a small team, maybe rely on the founder or an over-worked BDM for sales success. You might need to clarify your ICP, focus your sales effort, or broaden your client base and improve your sales process. But, you don't have the skillset and/or experience within your team.
An experienced commercial partner to advise on new business strategy would be a great addition, but comes with a hefty full time salary.
So, having a fractional business development director to provides the strategic insight, guidance and experience of a full time position, for a fraction of the cost, might be a good fit...
I work with clients on a monthly retainer, agreeing the right cadence for our strategy sessions, typically every two weeks or monthly.
During these sessions, we evaluate your goals and current status, map out initiatives for reaching key milestones and develop clear action points are for your team. We evaluate progress at the next session and discuss best next steps. This might be expanding or amending the current initiative or pivoting through a different phase or idea.
The feedback from small business owners to having an experienced commercial partner to sound board, sense check initiatives, curate new programs and get clarity on strategy, is really positive.
So, book in a exploratory call and we can discuss if we can help.
Rate: our retainer is from $500 - $2000/month depending on individual requirements confirmed during our initial discussion.
... so, why not get in touch to schedule a complimentary “Run it by me” session.
Your opportunity to share goals and challenges, and our chance to assess if this is something we can work on together.
