When should you hire your first business developer? 🔍

Often our clients come to our training to fix their business development team.

They are not efficient and don’t get the results they imagined.

What we realize during the training is that the reason for not having results it not really the team.

But the lack of business development processes and strategy which then causes poor results.

This happens when the company hires business development professionals too soon without doing their homework first.

The homework includes:

👉 Having a clear ideal customer profile and buyer persona

👉 Knowing your market inside out

👉 Having a clear idea of how you differentiate yourself

👉 Defining clear roles and responsibilities

👉 Setting goals and KPIs for the business development team

👉 Putting in place a performance management system

And the list goes on and on.

So if you’re looking to hire your first business development professional and don’t want to end up:

🤑 Wasting money
⌛ Wasting time
🤮 Get a stomach ulcer

Make sure you set up your business development processes first.

Follow the process yourself first and document every single thing.

Once you validate the process, you can start looking for your first business development pro.
