Hi {{first_name}},

As a project manager or studio lead at {{company_name}}, you probably have a strong sense of which types of projects bring out the best in your team and which ones drain resources without much reward.

The challenge at smaller firms is that business development often falls on people who already have full plates managing active projects. There is rarely time to build a systematic outreach process, so new work tends to come from whoever happens to call or from the same handful of referral sources.

I have been helping design professionals put together a repeatable approach to finding and qualifying new project leads. It does not require a dedicated BD hire or a massive time commitment.

Would you be open to a quick call to see if this could work for your team?
