What you get

A working session on finding the right people and opening the conversation

The Mechanics

How outreach works in consulting: who replies, who does not, and why most cold messages go nowhere.

A Contact Map

The types of people worth approaching and in what order, built as a framework you apply yourself. We find one or two together so you can see how it works.

Your Outreach

How to open on LinkedIn, what to write, and what to ask once someone replies, drafted in the session rather than described to you.

What you'll achieve

Concrete outcomes you walk away with

  • An approach to outreach you can repeat on your own, at any firm
  • A framework for who to approach and in what order, and a first message written
  • Real information about the work itself, so you can test whether you want it

How it works

1

What Gets A Reply

We cover what makes a consultant reply, and what makes them ignore you.

2

Who To Talk To

We build the map by type of person, not by name, and test it on one or two real examples together.

3

What To Send

You leave with your LinkedIn opener written and your questions prepared.

Who this is for

Curious About The Work

You're considering consulting and have never spoken to anyone who does it, and you want a real picture before committing months to preparation.

Targets Already Chosen

You know which firms you want and you need outreach to do something for the application, not just fill a contact list.
