business development
As entrepreneur or business leader you want to be sure that your new business development efforts are more than an opportunistic sales. But you don't want your marketing team neither to spend too much time strategising about new markets without 'proofing the case'.
In order to kick-start the development of business in new market segments or geographies BusinessMinds only spends the minimum needed time to develop strategies but instead quickly focusses on developing the market access 'in the field'. You will get a holistic picture of the market, its potential, its key players and the route-to-market. But even more so - depending on the readiness of your value proposition - you will be having access to concrete business opportunities.
At the end of the interim assignment with BusinessMinds and with the initially generated revenue, you will be able to decide how you want to move forward in this new market or geography: Reconsider the market-entry, hire new employees or re-allocate internal resources to make the step-change.
project management
As engaged leader you have also always multitude of projects in mind. You have access to a good team of experts who you need to be part of these projects but who you also don't want to get distracted from their jobs by managing the project members, timelines and negotiating with the project stakeholders or project sponsors.
With the support of BusinessMinds you can get the most out of your experts' time spent on your critical projects. They will only be involved when their experience matters for the subject at hand but they won't spend time to administrate the project.

Throughout the project work, BusinessMinds manages timelines and deliverables and ensures continuous alignment across the project team and sponsors.
At the end of the project management support, Business Minds ensures a smooth transition to your teams.
