Thoughts on hiring marketing and BD services to drum up consulting business? I have avoided it for six years and have been totally unimpressed with the cold-call mills that have approached me - feel like they would not do anything but destroy my reputation with the senior company people I need to connect with. I'm also not interested in paying a salesman to learn my business and, maybe, sell something (maybe). Any success stories with marketing and BD firms?

Update from the KPMG HR -

"As you know, all of the feedback has been great but at this time we do not have an available client project to place you. I imagine this will change shortly, but understand if you are unable to wait until that time."

I have recently joined a service based consulting firm, with my role as a BA in Banking domain but wish to get into PM roles in the near future. I'd deeply appreciate your inputs from your career journey or any suggestions to eventually create a strong profile for PM roles in Big tech firms.
I'm sure this thread would help a lot of aspiring PMs learn from your journey
