Introduction

In these current changeable and uncertain times, it’s more important than ever to ensure the agency is delivering the highest level of value, nurturing client relationships, increasing existing client retention and pro-actively seeking ways to add additional value.

Account directors are often the ones charged with forecasting growth and so have the responsibility for approaching account development in a systematic way.

Who will benefit?

The programme is designed for Account Directors who may manage a team and are responsible for client development and retaining existing relationships.

The course will show how teams can implement 90-day account retention goals and develop action plans using the most relevant approach for each client. The content is delivered via 2-hour training sessions on Zoom. There are three sessions over 3 days (concurrent days). Each session is recorded.
