Hey everyone! I'm curious—how do those of you doing a geo-focused but industry-agnostic self-funded search usually pitch what you're doing when talking to potential referral partners or local contacts?
I’ve found it a bit tricky to explain clearly, especially when people ask, “So what kind of industry are you targeting?” Since I’m open to various industries but limited to a specific area, I want to make sure I leave a strong impression so they actually remember and refer businesses my way.
Would love to hear if anyone has tips or scripts that worked well for them! 👀
