Join this workshop with IFundWomen and industry expert, Afua Osei, to learn more about the corporate B2B sales process, how to find the right contacts, and how to position your pricing and value so it's palatable to a brand or corporation.

Course lessons

Strategy

The spray and pray approach probably isn't the best strategy when you want to expand to a new type of client. We'll break down how you want to think about value, positioning and offers as you expand to this new market.

Finance

Does corporate clients mean earning the big bucks? Not always. Learn how to adjust your business model and pricing for larger clients.

Branding

Welcome to the big leagues! If you're asking for more money, you want to reflect that you can deliver and your branding will play a big part in that. We'll walk through the key branding assets you want to have ready such as your pitch deck, case study and website.

Legal

Corporate clients are going to expect you to be up to date with your regulatory affairs. We'll go through a check list of the things you need to put in place so that you can secure those contracts with little issues.

Relationships

Now that you've done homework, you actually have to go and talk to people. I'll share some templates and tools to make it easier for you to start to build relationships before you pitch your next big deal.
