SUMMARY:Three things you can do today to start sourcing new project briefs from beyond your network
DESCRIPTION:This Knowledge Share has been generously sponsored by Qualzy \n \nGrowing your own business is tough\, especially if you are also the person that delivers everything you sell. Designing and delivering projects and being responsible for winning work from new clients can be a challenge. \nIn this Knowledge Share webinar\, Paul Griffiths shares three easily used techniques and approaches that will help you more effectively start conversations and source new project opportunities from people outside of your existing network. And in a way that doesn’t take up lots of time and resource. \nThese business development activities are all things that Paul does for his own growth consultancy (he’s a one-man band himself) and are also techniques and approaches that he uses to help his clients (small and micro research and insight agencies) to grow. \nPaul Griffiths \n \nI help owners of Market Research and Insight Agencies to grow revenues by implementing proven growth strategies. \nFor more than 20 years I’ve helped grow research and insight agencies. In that time\, I’ve sold research projects\, managed clients and spoken to many Heads of Insight. I understand the challenge of growing a research business while also being a practitioner within it. \nI know what great client growth strategies look like and how to implement them in a way that is both effective and efficient. I’ve seen what works\, what doesn’t\, and how to engage with your clients and market to win work. I can help you grow your research business more effectively and more quickly. \nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/paulneilgriffiths/ \n \nHome \n \n  \nJoin this session here
