85 - The Fast Path To New Clients
Most consultancy firms make a big mistake in their marketing that slows down their progress to new sales and acquiring new clients or may prevent them having an opportunity with some potential clients at all.
There is a predominant tool on most consulting firms' websites that asks for too much too soon. That is typically the innocuous "Contact Us" form.
