Prospecting
The first part of business development is sales prospecting. Sales prospecting is finding ideal customers who are an excellent fit for your product and service. The first step of prospecting is list building. In the beginning, the majority of the time spent working for a business development representative will be b2b sales prospecting. This is the same whether you're a sales development rep, business development executive, or business development manager. Some methods of sales prospecting include cold email, LinkedIn, and cold calling.
Business Development Meetings
As you start building your business pipeline, the next step is to take your business development meetings. In these meetings, you're focused on learning more about the prospect, understanding their goals, challenges, and seeing whether they are fit to buy your product or service. This role is very similar to an account executive role where you're job is primarily to take sales and business development meetings. Depending on your business development strategy, you might be targeting small-medium businesses and generating a large number of meetings every month. However, if you're targeting enterprise companies, you may have fewer meetings per month, but each client is worth much more than the average SMB. Some business development examples we're cover is Square, Shake Shack, and Fuzz.
Business Development Rep's Responsibility
To succeed in the business development role, it's your role to generate meetings and taking sales meetings to understand your customer. From there, you'll need presentation and pitching skills to show why you're product and service is better than your competitors. You also must have strong communication skills, people skills, and networking skills.
