Partners, how did you jump start your network and sales efforts when making that transition from delivery to client development? Any tips and tricks? Realizing I should’ve started cultivating my network more formally earlier in my career

Disagree with the formal comment. If you do good work, are a good person, and are responsive and commercial in your communications, work will find you through delivery to sales.

I agree with P1. Also, it is never too late to try to build on those foundational relationships you had when serving clients with other members of your firm. Bring what you can to former teammates - remember that everyone is in the hunt for sales now, and it is much easier to hunt in a pack. Pool your resources and experience, and good things will happen.

And the reason I mentioned lean PCOS is because it seems for others with PCOS part of the fertility path is diet/exercise/weight loss but I am already very tiny.
