Take the pain out of business development

Here’s the thing with business development: no one likes doing it!

You need to:

• Gain insight on target companies
• Generate leads
• Speak to potential clients
• Close new business

But there are a few stumbling blocks.

• Researching targets is tricky because of the high volume of data
• It takes time to put target profiles together
• Executing effective outreach and having the right information to hand for successful pitches takes skill and is time-consuming

To help you navigate these challenges and boost your business development skills, Ally has put together a checklist that will take you from leads to clients in 12 weeks.

This checklist gives you a clear pathway to success by outlining each step you need to take to maximise your sales efforts and build out an effective business development pipeline. Use this checklist as a reminder to keep on track for your business development process!
