Virtual BDM enables me to apply my knowledge and experience to drive your sales process further and provide a full business development service whether it be for 1 week per week or 1 month. I can work on your behalf as "YOUR" sales resource without your business incurring the cost of hiring and employing a full time BDM. If you are looking for more of a team based approach, then I will oversee every aspect.
The answer is simply - "How do you want it to work?"
You could us in for five days, one week or even one whole month - or on a retainer with agreed KPI's.
To make the relationship work we would need access to a professional email address utilising your company domain and we will agree a project scope with agreed deliverables. We would need to gain a full understanding of your target markets, where you are currently successful and a "battle card" of how your product/service differs to others in your market place. We would also need to agree on your target markets, or perhaps specific companies that you would like to be selling to. Prospecting will include using a variety of tools including LinkedIn Sales Navigator, (good old) Google, Claude and ChatGPT as well as taking your guidance regarding customer profiles.
This can be one person, or a complete team depending on your requirements. All processes and messaging will be overseen by Kevin Copestake, leveraging over 20 years of successful sales experience across a wide variety of markets and sectors.
I’m hard working and extremely pro active, motivated, efficient and structured. Being a mum has given me new skills and qualities like being highly organised, being a multi tasker, thinking on the spot, being motivated, having enthusiasm and lots of patience!
I am a friendly approachable person, and I like interacting with new people. I have experience in sales, customer service, events management, administration, lead generation and I'm an entrepreneur in my own right.
