Since beginning my sales career in 2005 I have successfully worked in a number of Business Development/Sales Manager roles across multiple sectors and market verticals. The one thing that links these roles together has been the importance of adopting a consultative sales approach in order to win new business and develop accounts. Virtual BDM enables me to apply my knowledge and experience to drive your sales process further and provide a full business development service whether it be for 1 day per week or 1 month. I can work on your behalf as effectively YOUR sales resource without your business incurring the cost of hiring and employing a BDM. You could bring me in for one day at a time on an ad-hoc basis**. You could bring me in for one week or even one whole month. To make the relationship work I would need access to a professional email address utilising your company domain and we will agree a project scope with agreed deliverables. I would need to gain a full understanding of your target markets, where you are currently successful and a "battle card" of how your product/service differs to others in your market place. We would also need to agree on your target markets, or perhaps specific companies that you would like to be selling to. My prospecting will include using a variety of tools including LinkedIn Sales Navigator, (good old) Google and your guidance regarding customer profiles. We could even take on a monthly project utilising a team that I closely manage, this is proving very effective. **Subject to availability. - I don't take on commission-only projects, and won't consider commission-only for the first 3 months of any project.
