Business development

We want someone who constantly thinks:

“Who should we partner with?”

“How could we get this for less?”

“Who would pay to be part of this?”

“How can we make this event significantly better?”

If a venue costs ₪40,000, you should be thinking about how to negotiate it to ₪30,000.
