With Ben Swart, Bright Spot, and Roxanne De Beaux, CamCycle
The full impact of coronavirus on the economy and your prospective corporate partners is still unknown. So how do you find out who to target, how to engage them, and how to secure them? Especially when we might not be their top priority and we’ve lost face to face meetings. Ben uses examples from both his own experience of winning £30million+ of corporate partnerships; and from coaching others to build sector leading partnerships.
This session aims to help you:
- Understand who to target, how to approach them, and techniques to give you the best chance of engaging and securing them
- Be able to meet more valuable companies despite losing physical meetings, find ways to frame your organisation, and secure time with your most valuable prospects
- Know how to re-think your pipeline and build a proposition that gives most value to you and them
