Many public sector organisations find Employer Engagement / Business Development challenging. Sales Insight understands this and we will help you develop effective solutionsEffective Engagement with Employers, and gaining their commitment, is vital to achieving targets. Yet many Public Sector organisations and agencies, find it very difficult to actually attract and persuade employers, to participate in government programmes.
Employer Engagement / Business Development usually involves some form of marketing or lead generation, with a representative, broker or agent communicating with the Employer. The aim is to build rapport, a relationship and, if appropriate, to gain commitment to a service, programme or initiative that is on offer.
Unfortunately, many of our clients find that there are several obstacles to overcome, such as:
1. Getting in front of the employer 2. Employers may be suspicious and / or cynical so it can be difficult to gain a commitment to action 3. You want to avoid being seen as a 'pushy' sales operation yet you need to build a compelling case for action 4. You have to meet the requirement for impartiality and clear ethical standards 5. Working effectively with a variety of partner organisations can be hard, especially if they are difficult to motivate or communicate with 6. Gaining the required level of knowledge of 'business', along with sector and trend information can be tough
Effective Employer Engagement / Business Development is complex and requires a range of support. The required type of marketing, sales, systems, coaching and tools are not often found, or resourced, within Public Sector organisations and agencies. Some organisations also experience cultural issues and even resistance to what is sometimes seen as 'sales' activity.
Consequently many Public Sector agencies often find the whole Employer Engagement / Business Development process to be difficult, attracting high cost and often delivering disappointing results. Sales Insight provides solutions in all aspects of Employer Engagement / Business Development and we are squarely aimed at getting the result you need.
