3 How much untapped opportunity is there to grow your revenue from among your current clients?

4 We’ve posed this question to more than 150 managing partners across the country. They told us: 24% (range from 5% to 100%)

5 So, double digit growth is possible… 24% growth from current clients + 3% price increase + 3% adding new clients 30% annual growth X 50% 15% increase per year

6 Unlocking This Potential Depends On… Retaining current clients Bringing in new business Selling more services to existing clients Retaining your staff Understanding the unmet & evolving needs of clients
