How BD Circle Helped Double A Client’s Practice and Paved the Way to Equity
“In those six months with BD Circle, I saw a way to actually build a practice doing the work I want to do in a way that makes sense for me. Over the last 18 months, I have doubled my practice. I anticipate in the next 2 to 3 years, I will be up for equity which is something that I didn't anticipate even being possible.” – 2024 BD Circle Participant

What clients
are saying...
Business Development is such an amorphous and limitless endeavor. It seemed like a scary and monumental task, but this course has given me a foundation and structure to develop my business on a regular cadence. Business Development feels much more manageable now.
Law Firm Partner
Far from providing cookie-cutter advice, Rudhir took the time to understand me, my practice, and my professional and personal goals. He provided detailed, tailored guidance on business development that was insightful and actionable, and helped me implement a variety of methods for achieving my BD and personal goals. Rudhir’s personal touch truly sets him apart, and I highly recommend working with him!
AmLaw100 Senior Associate (Partner Track)
It's nice to think about Business Development differently. Now I see it as a service instead of an awkward sales activity, and this shift in my mindset has made it easier for me to practice it.
