Hi all!

Managers and Directors: as a consultant, how do I get your ear? I’m talking about a serious consideration for services, not just a post to like and move on. Trying to figure out why interest level seems stuck on social media for fleeting moments. Thanks!

I know timing plays a big role for me. Some seasons are absolutely wild and I don’t have bandwidth to visit about new services or products. Depending on your specific offering, there may be some times that are better than others to connect. (Ex, fundraisers are swamped at end of year, volunteer engagement spikes at New Years, summer, and societal swings, disaster relief will be booked up during disasters, etc.)

I get nuts when I get multiple emails in a single
week, when my out of office is turned on. When I get back, I usually send a sentence like, “I have no bandwidth—sorry.”

I'd say it can be beneficial to network with contacts that can help you reach those higher-level decision makers—whether through attending industry events, joining professional groups on social media, or becoming an active member of LinkedIn and other online communities.

It seems to me that the best way to deal with pragmatic people is in a pragmatic way, prepare a report with numbers on the low level of interest of the brand community towards the brand, it is a good way to hook and make people interested in brand growth pay attention to you.

The best way to gain the attention of managers and directors is to present yourself as an expert in the field in which you wish to consult. Make sure to provide clear and concise information about your qualifications, past successes, and any awards or accolades that show potential clients why they should hire you.
