Your next growth unlock isn’t in new clients. It’s in how your team deepens the relationship.
The problem is that relationship building is often seen as ‘soft & fluffy’. It can come across as over-servicing or just ‘a lot of lunches’. In short, relationship-building is hard to measure.
The opportunity is to make it measurable. You can do this by connecting actions to outcomes. My DBA Masterclass shows you how:
- Know what the client needs, over & above project success
- Know how this marries with agency goals
- Tie these together in a plan of actions and measurable outcomes.
The Masterclass will show you how to:
- Create a motivating and well-defined North Star, and
- Develop a strategy to get achieve the goal, with
- Big tangible actions,
- Day to day habits and ways of working
- Across the whole team.
Real relationship-building rises up above the project work:
- Relationship-builders have a much broader view of client needs
- Successful client teams work in one harmonised style.
You don’t always need more clients; you need to deepen existing relationships better.
