Entrepreneurs and small business owners know how hard it can be to stay on top of everything. It often feels like triage—constantly bouncing between urgent client work, team needs, and admin chaos—just addressing the most pressing issue, leaving little (if any) time for “the long game.” Too often, business development and relationships—the very activities that drive long-term success—get pushed to the back burner until you’re staring down an empty pipeline. This free webinar from Catherine Brown and Sasha Crabtrey will provide actionable strategies for being intentional and consistent with outreach and referrals—before you hit “scramble mode.” It’s a must-attend for anyone looking to build or scale a business and who wants to stop treating business development like a crisis response.
