With a new year approaching, now is the ideal time to reflect on what’s worked and what hasn’t moved the needle for your business this year. And it’s the perfect time to put those insights to work by refreshing your business development plan for 2021. 

In this 75-minute webinar, a panel of business development coaches are here to answer your questions about the challenges of developing business right now and how to plan ahead for 2021. These experts offer pragmatic tools and practices to develop and implement an effective business development plan to achieve your vision in 2021. Using a question and answer format, you will hear different perspectives and learn several approaches to developing the plan that is right for you.
