The Business Impact Group (BIG) is a strategic person-to-person business development community for business owners, professional service firms, and decision-makers. It is the culmination of my experience as a business leader, relationship builder, and printing industry executive. For me, business is all about opportunities. How you find, create, and leverage them. At the center of that universe is trust, and we all know that when trust is built, it's easy to positively leverage contacts and spheres of influence to optimize marketplace opportunities. BIG features twice-monthly business development council meetings that are fun, interactive, and designed to guide members to new and dynamic ways to build their trusted relationships and, with it, their businesses. Our business development councils are geographically constructed, free of competitive conflicts, and right-sized for maximum impact. There is no cross-selling, and it’s not about handing out business cards. It is ALL about the art and science of business-to-business relationship building – always focused on opportunity flow. ⭐ Featuring multiple business development councils representing diverse industries and practices including: Legal✓ Insurance✓ Private Equity✓ Executive & Career Coaching✓ Consulting✓ Marketing✓ Banking✓ Investments✓ HR Solutions✓ Finance✓ Real Estate✓ Accounting✓ and many more!
