Targeting and Reaching Prospective Customers
Innovative Tools to Find Customers and Clients
Who Should Attend?
Small business owners who are not always comfortable with the customer identification and outreach process. Emphasis will be on service companies such as consulting and coaching, or any new business owner who needs help finding customers. This workshop is not part of the SCORENYC sales course curriculum, but could serve as a valuable springboard for any sales class.

- Identify your business’s ideal customer profile (ICP)
- Develop a process to reach out to your target customer and look for further business
- Discuss techniques for developing and tracking progress on your prospect list
