BD MANAGER | SOJERN | IRELAND

The BD School course gave me a new approach to my job, helping me to improve my skills and discover a wide range of useful tools. The teacher is very good at sharing experience and passion, and the materials provided are clear and thorough. On top of this I met many other professionals who became part of my network. I highly recommend it!

BUSINESS DEVELOPER | NECOS | ITALY

The BD School has truly changed my way of working and helped me get all the insights and strategies I needed to start my career in business development. When I found my new job I didn't receive formal training and I didn't have a method to execute my daily tasks. The course gave me practical tips that I could immediately apply. After the course, I felt more confident in my job and was able to hit target more consistently.

BUSINESS DEVELOPER | ALTISERVICE | FRANCE

Before I took the course, I knew what I was doing with my business, but I couldn’t really find a way to describe my function in my company. That was until I started The BD School course! Business Development is exactly what I’m doing and I love doing it! The course itself is amazing, and the thing, I loved the most was the homework. Clear, consistent, and very practical. The course really helped me set a clear path for Dearly future.

FOUNDER | DEARLY | THE NETHERLANDS

Before the course, I didn't have a formal business development training. All I knew I learned it on the job. But I wanted to have more structure to increase client's conversion and generally feel more confident in my job. The course was very practical and I really liked the many templates and frameworks. These were particularly helpful because I can now use them in my daily job making me more efficient and my clients happy.
