Depends on your experience in the industry, your network, how how active you are on social media, etc. Lots of factors to evaluate to decide on your best course of action to getting new business. Are you able to reach out to enough people in your personal network to ask for referrals? I would start with recent business partners who are satisfied with your work and can offer up names in their network to refer you too. Referrals should be a core function of your BD strategy!

DM me if you want more advice/want to map out a strategy. I consult SMB’s on how to ramp up BD and sales operations.

I will be doing so, thank you!

As you build you clientele continue to build the relationship by staying in touch. Nothing builds a strong company like word of mouth. This is a rarity in your business and I believe that conducting searches with a base of workable clients will serve you well.

Thank you, any tips on asking for referrals? Bad idea?

Is it possible to source leads based on open job postings or announcements on who plans to hire X Number of jobs? New office launches or companies that have a cash infusion may be looking for additional or local support to hire talent

Who have you been reaching out to? What titles?

Hi Fishes, I grabbed an offer at Accenture with 12 LPA fixed for Level 9. I'm not getting a retention offer from my current company at 13.5 lpa. How do I go about a counter offer with Accenture HR? Also tell me how to approach this situation smoothly.

If HR doesn't fulfill the counter offer, is it ok to accept 12 lpa fixed for Level 9 and when will I get a hike here and how much would it be approximately?
