Updated for 2020, this training will directly impact your ability to secure more revenue from your current client roster.
Expect to be put to work in this workshop as you start crafting aggressive organic growth plans, while learning new methods to mine for more business from every roster client – without having to feel like a sales person.
Over the course of a day & a half, you will learn how to arm your account teams with the tools and systems necessary to identify, attack and convert growth opportunities – systematically. Importantly, the goal is to have you implement these new methods with your current clients immediately upon returning to the agency.
New This Year: this training now includes curriculum to address more effective estimate writing and day-to-day client negotiation skills, ultimately securing more revenue from every project.
