I was asked how we could get more global, cross-border, work as a network.
Members have frequently suggested an NPAworldwide sales team. The reality is NPA would become your competitor and drive margins lower and get the same business you already have access to...so the leadership has decided that is a bad approach.
What we have determined is that we need more members engaging their clients and prospects in talking about global reach and how through your membership a client can access talent search for almost any job in any location. I have pasted below and attached as a word document a draft template for members to use with clients to introduce this capability. Make changes, additions, corrections to make this template work for you. Try sending a few letters or emails each week and see what happens.
If you have a better option or template that is proven to work for you, please share it here.
