Work Your Hive™
Our Signature Service
Serving two common challenges...
I work with two types of clients.
The first are business owners who understand that networking is important to grow, but it isn’t translating to the results they want.
The second are business owners who are doing great with networking but are looking for methods to expand or scale the results of their networking.
A different approach to relationship management...
Most networking/business development strategists in my space are sharing tactics on how to locate networking opportunities and teaching them how to get an introduction call.
I focus on equipping business owners with a strategic network to reduce their networking activities so they have a model to scale or expand their business.
I look at networking a lot like dating with the goal of developing long-term relationships. I’m a matchmaker who is focused on helping you find the best strategic partners to build your business.
I’m not trying to just set you up on a first date. I want to make sure you get to the second date and beyond.
I also don’t want you to be inundated with random, unaligned people to get to know. I want you to selectively and intentionally get to know the right people who will grow your business.
How it works...
While each of my clients is unique, all of them go through a four-phased process to build their strategic network.
I start by ORGANIZING AND ASSESSING your current network so we can create a plan to reach your business development goals. We’ll focus on syncing your networking approach to your target audience and brand messaging. We’ll evaluate your current systems and technology to determine which workflows can be improved and enhanced through automation and delegation.
Next, we RECRUIT a team of collaborative, strategic partners. We’ll develop accountability metrics, monitor your progress, and make adjustments to ensure you’re hitting your targeted goals and benchmarks. We’ll determine which partners are an aligned fit to your brand and goals. Finally, we’ll equip your partners with your strategic resources to attract your ideal client and support your omnichannel marketing strategies.
Your hive is ready. The dream team is assembled. Now it’s time to ACTIVATE your network to increase your networking capacity, client roster, revenue, and visibility. We’ll verify the reliability and consistency of your partner referrals to confirm they are providing you with high-quality opportunities. We’ll ensure your network is working for you!
Once we have a strategic network in place, we LEVERAGE your network to expand or scale your business. We’ll increase your team’s internal capacity, identify additional markets and/or industries to service, and/or attract premium clients to extend your brand impact.
Frequently Asked Questions
A discovery call is the time for you to determine whether this service and our four-phased process are the right fit for you and your business. You will share your goals and what support you’re looking for to improve your networking and business development strategy. I will answer any questions you have about our process and how it will fit into your goals.
I work with a wide range of sizes and types of businesses. Most of them are women (I also work with men) who offer professional services and are solopreneurs, microentrepreneurs, and small business owners who work with B2B service-based companies. We have worked with consultants, coaches, virtual assistants, attorneys, and travel agencies to name a few examples. Most of my clients have teams of less than 30 employees and/or independent contractors. Most of my clients provide a range of service offerings in the form of VIP Days, packages, retainers, workshops/speaking engagements, and 1:1 coaching programs.
This service may not be a good fit for you if you primarily sell physical products, digital products, digital memberships/subscriptions, courses, and/or group coaching programs. Additionally, if you primarily serve a business-to-consumer (B2C) audience, this service may not be a good fit for you.
My engagements are set up for a myriad of ways for us to work together. Our pricing reflects the custom nature of our consulting approach.
Our engagements run from 3 to 36 months. Our typical client engagement is 18 months.
Networking and relationship management is a long-term marketing, sales, and business development strategy.
Our engagements are structured for our clients to see the value and impact of this strategy over time.
Yes! I work with sales and business development teams through virtual or in-person workshops and/or projects. We customize our workshops and projects using our proprietary frameworks and a needs assessment of the team. Schedule a discovery call to learn more.
