Bring the power of Smart Gets Paid programs to your team
Arm team members with the skills to identify, generate, and nurture client opportunities, even if they don’t have a sales background.
What if everyone on your team could do business development effectively?
When you’re running a small or mid-sized company, nearly everyone is responsible for “selling” in some way: getting new clients, growing existing client relationships, and finding new opportunities.
Unfortunately, in most companies, team members are great in their area of expertise, but may not have the know-how, skills, or confidence to be able to sell effectively.
As a result, your company could miss opportunities, lose sales, sign smaller contracts, and the CEO ends up shouldering the burden of selling.
When you give your team members the skills to identify, create, and nurture opportunities, you can create a “sales team” of not just one (the CEO), but of many.
With the right skills, team members will be able to:
- Spot opportunities with current clients and nurture those opportunities to a signed contract
- Identify and capitalize on opportunities with new clients
- Build the company sales pipeline
- Leverage LinkedIn to surface new client opportunities
- Speak with the same voice in the marketplace and out in the world
- Seamlessly integrate business development into their everyday work
When your team can do that, you can spread the responsibility of selling and reach your revenue goals faster.

What a small business coach does:
- Helps identify and set goals: They help you define a clear vision and set achievable goals, breaking down large aspirations into smaller, actionable steps.

What is a small business consultant?
A small business consultant is an external expert who provides specialized advice and support to help small businesses improve their performance, operations, and profitability. They analyze business needs, identify challenges, and create tailored strategies in areas like marketing, finance, IT, and human resources, often acting as a temporary expert to help a business achieve goals it might not have the resources to address with a full-time employee.
How they help:
- Provide expertise: Consultants offer specialized knowledge and experience that small business owners may lack.
- Identify problems and solutions: They conduct an unbiased analysis of the business to find inefficiencies and suggest practical solutions.
- Offer strategic guidance: Consultants help with strategic planning, budgeting, and developing a clear path for growth.
- Improve operations: They work on streamlining processes to increase efficiency and performance.
- Implement strategies: They may assist in implementing new procedures or technologies to achieve business goals.
- Provide an objective perspective: As an outsider, a consultant can offer a fresh, impartial viewpoint that an internal team might overlook.
What is the primary goal of business coaching?
The primary goal of business coaching is to help individuals and their businesses achieve their goals by enhancing performance, leadership skills, and decision-making through a structured, collaborative process. A coach guides a client to identify their vision, overcome challenges, and create and execute a plan for growth, ultimately leading to improved and sustainable success.

What clients are saying…
“Pack Your Pipeline made myself and my team think differently about how we were showing up on LinkedIn.
Instead of “selling” or just posting events online, I was more strategic, I thought about how to really connect with our current customers and prospective customers, and what they needed. I was blown away by the techniques I learned from Leah. I also love her teaching style – as a facilitator myself, she is engaging, thorough and patient in her teaching. Her style really spoke to me on a human level.”
Erin Diehl, Founder of ImproveIt Chicago, improv-based corporate training agency
“Once I started using Leah’s formula for “getting into the LinkedIn Matrix” my business almost immediately started getting new shots of adrenaline. In two months, I had six former clients reach out and say they wanted to reconnect; two of those conversations lead to 4 new projects– two were extensions of work and two brand new accounts.
I’m convinced that LinkedIn thought-leadership is the best investment a B2B company can make to build its brand and augment its pipeline. Leah knows how to make the time and effort pay off.”
Jill Tracy, founder, B’Stro web marketing agency
“I can’t tell you enough how much I enjoyed your webinar with the PRCC!!!!! WOW. Thank you! So much of what you said hit home for me.”
Allyson C, PR agency owner
