one basis on winning work strategies, plans and business generation activities where
this will give clients the greatest return from our contribution.

Why clients use us
Our materials and delivery are based on our current ‘Rainmaker’ research into winning high value work in professional services, giving credibility to our advice. (Take our 10 minute Rainmaker test on www.winningbusiness.net)
All of our team operate at Partner and Management Board level in the accountancy, law, consulting and the financial services sectors and are well known Business Development coaches.
We offer a range of programmes from ‘Master Class’ level for Partners and senior professionals to tailored intermediate sessions for less experienced fee earners, all based on current ‘best practice’.
We use video-based case studies designed to bring ‘real life’ to our training and coaching. Our case studies fit most professional services firm markets ranging from a £10 million fast growing start up through middle market listed and private companies to $1 billion global businesses. How well will the delegates pick up on the issues; how do they engage the decision makers - captured on the pre-shot video - and what do they say to them to win the work?
Quality pre-shot videos of typical business development scenarios – like networking, a first meeting, informal and formal pitch situations, cross selling and ‘asking for the work’. Delegates observe and learn from the ‘do’s and don’ts’. (You’ll find some examples on the website).
We offer follow up pod casts and email ‘food for thought’ updates to make sure that the momentum of the training we deliver is maintained and delegates make changes in their behaviour in the business (you can download one from www.winningbusiness.net)
On line learning modules as part of the training package, for those who cannot attend or want ‘just in time’ reminders of the key points prior to a new business meeting or a pitch, for example.
