What employers expect from a Business Development Manager

Business development managers open what does not exist yet: new applications, new industries, new regions. It is hunting in its purest form.

Business development managers find revenue that does not exist yet: new industries for an existing product, new regions, new applications or partnerships. The role is analytical and entrepreneurial at once – market studies and target lists on one day, first meetings at management level on the next. Employers want hunters with a strategic head who can hand a developed market over to the regular sales team.
