One-to-one BD support

Build - and make progress that sticks.

For senior lawyers who want to grow their practice with focus, confidence, and less overwhelm.

You’re great at what you do — but when it comes to business development, it’s not always clear where to focus or how to build momentum that lasts. You know BD matters, but with client demands, billable hours, and uncertainty about what actually works, it’s easy to lose traction.

This one-to-one programme combines strategic consulting, practical coaching, and tailored tools to help you build a BD approach that works with your practice, not against it. You’ll develop a clear plan, simple systems, and the confidence to communicate your value — consistently.

It’s the kind of support your internal BD or marketing team can’t always provide — focused, personal, and designed to help you make visible progress without the overwhelm.
