You've identified the direction. You know corporate is where you want to go. What you need now is a clear, practical process for turning the relationships you already have into your first client conversation.

That’s what this workbook is for.

There are five sections, designed to be done in one sitting. By the time you reach the end you'll have a shortlist of warm prospects from your existing network, a personalised message ready to send to each one, and a clear picture of what you're asking for when someone says yes.

What's inside:

• The audit — who is already in your network and what they do

• The filter — who is most likely to say yes and why

• The connection — how to warm up a relationship before you ask for anything

• The message — outreach templates you rewrite in your own voice, plus what not to do

• The next step — what to do when someone actually replies

This is for you if:

• You've been thinking about corporate work for a while and haven't taken the first step

• You've tried cold outreach and it hasn't landed

• You know you have the right relationships — you just don't know how to use them

This is not a reading document. It's a working one. Set aside an hour, go through it in order, and come out the other side with something real to send.
