Business development is distinctly different than sales. Top business development professionals become a trusted advisor to clients. This is the key to a long-term and strategic relationship that adds more value than sales alone. These eight attributes and behaviors are what can get you there.
There is sometimes confusion around the term business development I have found.
“What do you do?”
“I am in Business Development for a market research and consulting company.”
“Um, okay??? What does that mean?”
