Course Description

Networking and referrals have always played a role in building professional services practices. In today’s environment, it is much harder to build your client roster solely on referrals and networking alone, but it still plays a crucial role in your overall business development strategy. It is never too early to start building your circle of influence, and it is never too late to fine-tune your circle of influence. The key to success is becoming intentional with building your circle of influence so that it becomes a powerful referral source for you. 

There are tons of different ways to build your circle of influence, formal or informal, in-person and online, which can become overwhelming if not done with intention and a plan. In this E-Book CPE course, we will look at who should be in your circle of influence, where to find those individuals, and how to nurture those relationships.

Major topics covered in this E-Book CPE course:

  • What is a Circle of Influence?
  • Why Should You Create a Circle of Influence?
  • Considerations When Building a Circle of Influence
  • Potential Referral Sources

About Company

The Sales Seed

www.thesalesseed.com

After working with accounting professionals for close to 20 years in both the accounting profession as CPAs and in the sales industry selling to the accounting market, the Sales Seed Founders recognized an incredible need for sales coaching and sales framework for those in professional services that are on the leadership track and need to grow a book of business. We developed programs and classes for firms looking to provide the necessary tools and resources to develop their potential leaders and grow their firm.

We recognize that sales can be intimidating, whether that means selling their own services or those of their firm, but this is necessary to move up in a career path. With the proper training and framework in place, becoming a “sales person” is actually very simple.
