Strategic business development principles in finance

Ultimately your success in the business is defined by your clients. Whatever expertise you might deliver, cannot compensate for the lack of paying clients in assuring the sustainability of your business. A clients’ choice to work (or continue to work) with you or not is significantly influenced by clear behavioral rules. Knowing how to leverage them gives you a critical competitive edge in growing your business.

You will learn how to fully understand your client’s mindset, behaviors and expectations to better satisfy their needs and generate more business.
