1. clear cooperation goals and expectations

The first step in working with a business growth consulting service provider is to clarify the goals and expectations of the partnership.

It hopes to find new growth opportunities and directions by cooperating with business growth consulting service providers. When the company approached Shangpu Consulting, it clarified its cooperation goals and expectations, that is, through market research, competition analysis, customer insight, etc., to explore potential market demand, product innovation, channel expansion and other growth strategies, and formulate Implementation plan with high feasibility, low risk and fast return.

The establishment of an effective communication mechanism can promote mutual understanding and trust, improve the efficiency and quality of consulting services, avoid misunderstandings and conflicts, and also help to discover and grasp new opportunities and challenges.

For example, when a medical device enterprise cooperates with Shangpu Consulting Company, it has established the following effective communication mechanisms: first, it has set up a special project team and docking personnel to be responsible for the management and implementation of the project, and regularly holds project progress meetings to report the work situation, discuss problems and plans, and determine the next plan; second, it has established a unified communication platform and channel, use email, telephone, WeChat and other methods for daily communication, and use cloud documents, online meetings and other tools for data sharing and collaboration; the third is to formulate clear communication rules and procedures, and stipulate the frequency, content, format, and responsibility of communication Requirements, and establish a communication record and feedback mechanism.

4. regular assessment and feedback

The fourth step in working with a business growth consulting service provider is to conduct regular assessments and feedback.
