Hands-On Guidance
"Moving relationships from conversation to real business opportunity."
Connect Works • Principal: Lindsay Greene
Tailored, Practical Support for Every Stage of Growth
Connect Works provides practical, relationship-driven business development and partnership support tailored to the needs of each client. Whether you need help growing a partner program, opening doors, strengthening industry relationships or making smarter use of your business-development resources, the focus is always the same: creating connections that lead to opportunity.
Sponsorship & Partner Programs
Build stronger programs — and stronger partner relationships.
Connect Works helps associations and organizations evaluate, structure and grow sponsorship, preferred-provider and strategic partner programs. From identifying new prospects and developing meaningful benefits to strengthening engagement and improving retention, we help create programs that deliver value for both the organization and its partners.
Fractional Business Development & Relationship Management
Experienced business-development support — without adding a full-time executive.
For organizations that need an experienced professional to represent them, cultivate relationships and develop new opportunities, Connect Works provides flexible, ongoing support as an extension of your team. Services can include prospect development, industry and association outreach, partner relationship management, introductions and follow-up — helping move relationships from conversation to opportunity.
Business Development & Growth
Turn prospects and relationships into opportunities.
Connect Works helps identify potential clients and opportunities, open doors to new conversations and strengthen relationships with key prospects. We can also help develop a more focused business-development strategy — determining where to spend your time, who you should be talking to and how to move promising relationships forward.
Association & Industry Engagement
Make the right investments — and get more from them.
Memberships, sponsorships, conferences and industry events can represent a significant investment. Connect Works helps businesses determine where their time and resources will have the greatest impact — identifying the right associations, sponsorships, events and engagement opportunities for their goals.
We also help clients build stronger relationships with association leaders and members, increase their visibility and develop a more intentional strategy for turning industry involvement into meaningful business opportunities.
Strategic Partnerships
Build relationships that create value on both sides.
The right partnership can expand your reach, strengthen your offering and create new opportunities for growth. Connect Works helps identify potential strategic partners, develop mutually beneficial opportunities and strengthen existing partnerships so they continue to deliver value.
Not sure where your biggest opportunity lies?
Connect Works will help you evaluate where your time, resources, and connections can generate the greatest return before you commit to large sponsorships or new hires.
