About

Sustainable growth for professional services

I help professional services firms and individuals achieve sustainable growth and take the next steps toward business success. I specialise in international business development strategies, client relationship programmes, and practical practice group plans and budgets.

My approach is tailored, not one size fits all. Drawing on experience working with firms and professionals at different stages of maturity and career progression, I use proven methods to identify new revenue opportunities, deepen client relationships and increase brand visibility.

With over 15 years' experience working alongside senior lawyers in international, US and offshore law firms, I have particular expertise across Cayman, Bermuda, BVI, USA, UK and Asian markets — supporting corporate and litigation teams to expand their client reach.

Previous experience includes

Conyers Maples Group Ropes & Gray BLP The Law Society LexisNexis
Cayman Islands Bermuda BVI United States United Kingdom Asia

Products & Services

Four core service areas

With fractional, interim and project-based services available, and one-on-one or team training, we have a solution to suit your needs, goals and budget.

01

BD Strategy

Business development can quickly become reactive, with constant requests to attend conferences, sponsor events, and pursue opportunities that may not align with your wider objectives. We help firms take a more strategic approach by identifying clear goals, aligning activity with commercial priorities, and managing budgets effectively. Underpinned by strong CRM foundations, our approach creates greater visibility, accountability, and focus for sustainable growth.

  • Budget Planning
  • Business Plan Development & Evaluation
  • CRM Development & Training
  • Collateral & Pitch Template Building
  • Directory Submission Process
  • RFP & Proposal Development
02

Development & Training

Moving from a technical practitioner to a revenue generating professional takes a change in mindset. Together we analyse your goals, evaluate your current network and personal brand, then produce a plan with clear processes and outcomes. Group training also available.

  • One-on-One Advisory (Junior to Senior)
  • Newly Promoted Professionals
  • Lateral Joiners
  • BD Coaching for Practice Groups & Service Lines
  • Group Training for Marketing Teams
03

Business Intelligence

Having a clear view of what marketing activities your competitors or peers are undertaking is key to effective market positioning. We provide an unbiased view of the market on a monthly or project basis, with actionable recommendations to sharpen your messaging.

  • Competitor & Peer Analysis
  • Thought Leadership Production
  • Market & Jurisdiction Analysis
  • Client, Referral & Competitor Mapping
  • Trends & News Monitoring

Event Management & Services

The desire to run great events is there, but it often falls on professionals with other pressing priorities. With experience in conference production and event management, we take on the full burden of execution — from concept through to on-the-day logistics.

  • Topic & Agenda Generation
  • Speaker Identification & Management
  • Sponsorship Identification & Management
  • Venue & Vendor Sourcing
  • On-the-day Logistics
