Executive Networking with Tenant Advisory Group



Bill Himmelstein – The best practice for business development for me has been doing business development for others.
Gary Breden – Relationships are the best means for developing businesses. Setting up channel partnerships.
Keith Glantz – Over-deliver with quality and then clients become the salespeople. Looking into the EOS model.
Jay Sharman – Best sales have been one degree of separation. I get most new clients organically by asking clients. I failed miserably when spending money on marketing.
Paola Meinzer – Focus on relationships. Be a part of different groups and be engaged in those groups.
Bill Gimbel – It’s not about selling. It’s about servicing and providing value. The ultimate compliment from a client is a referral. You should ask for the referral.
Ken Daemicke – Networking. Chambers, Rotary, NFP boards. Get involved. Ask: “How can I help you?”
Dominic Rinaldi – Using your phone works! Calling an owner of a business has been the most effective practice for business development. I use a CRM system and mine the data. If under $10m, around 2x-5x of adjusted EBITDA. The owner needs to stick around to transition relationships.
Zori Haouchine – Personal connections have been the most important. I want to focus on doing the things I want to do.
Paul Pagel – Growth through software wave. Started based on relationships. You can’t scale care. I did it through employee ownership. I want to transition to a team running the company.
Ben Olson – Channel partnerships like PE firms, they’re great people to work with. I want to get people together more.
Michael LaVista – Our marketing is excellent deliverables. 70% of our business is from other software companies. I’m going to write a book this year.
Charlie Franklin – I join and participate in organizations.
Thank you to all who attended!
