Daily Business Development Tip: 5. Track your activity You don’t need a complex system, but you do need visibility. Keep track of who you’ve spoken to, when you last followed up, and what was discussed. This turns BD from guesswork into a process. #AgentsOf

Visibility creates opportunity. If people don’t know what you do, they can’t buy from you - no matter how good your service is. That visibility comes from: • Turning up consistently • Having conversations, not pitches • Staying in touch after “good to meet you” moments

Are you in Business Development? Or looking to build a better pipeline to grow the business? The Biz Dev Club is back and works to try and help people with new ideas to win new clients. The next one is 13th January at 10:30am (online) Tickets here: circlesmcr.co.uk/event/the-biz-…

Daily Business Development Tip: 4. Follow up properly Most opportunities don’t disappear - they just drift. A simple, polite follow-up keeps you front of mind and shows professionalism. Persistence (done well) is a strength, not a flaw. #AgentsOf

Manchester is full of great businesses. The ones that win more work are usually the most visible, not the loudest. That means: ✔️ Turning up consistently to local events (have a look at @CirclesMCR) ✔️ Being active on LinkedIn ✔️ Staying in touch after “good to meet you” moments

Daily Business Development Tip: 3. Lead with curiosity, not a pitch Good Business Development starts with listening. Ask thoughtful questions, understand challenges, and resist the urge to sell too early. People buy from those who “get” their situation. #AgentsOf

One reason business development feels so difficult? It’s personal. You’re not just selling a product, you’re selling you, your thinking and your value. Rejection can feel uncomfortable, especially in close-knit business communities. #AgentsOf

Online event next Tuesday: The Biz Dev Club (Epsiode 36) Sponsored by Circles MCR 13th Jan @ 10:30am (Zoom) tickets available here: circlesmcr.co.uk/event/the-biz-… We're all #AgentsOf #BizDev

Let’s be honest. Business Development is hard. You’re putting yourself out there. Following up when it feels awkward. Hearing “sounds great, let’s keep in touch” more times than you’d like. If Business Development feels difficult right now, you’re not alone. #AgentsOf

Daily Business Development Tip : 2. Focus on consistency, not intensity. A small amount of BD done regularly beats occasional big pushes. A few messages, follow-ups or conversations each week will outperform a burst of activity followed by silence. #AgentsOf

If winning more work is a goal this year, ask yourself: • Am I in the right networking rooms? • Am I speaking to the right people? • Am I staying visible after events? If not, that’s exactly what I help with. Have a look at my website to see how I help with BD & intros

Manchester networking tip 👇 Stop trying to meet everyone in the room. Instead: • Pick 3–4 people you’d genuinely like to talk to • Ask about their business, not their budget • Follow up within 48 hours Most deals in Manchester start with a decent chat and a coffee.

Daily Business Development Tip : 1. Be clear on who you’re targeting. Vague targeting leads to vague results. Decide exactly who you want to speak to, what problem you help them solve, and why they should care. Clarity makes outreach easier and conversations more relevant.
