Expert Network Firm

An Expert Network Firm connects business professionals and companies with industry experts to gain critical insights and make informed decisions. The firm monetizes this service by charging clients a fee for access to consultations, reports, and interactions with these experts. These engagements can range from one-on-one calls and meetings to more in-depth consulting projects, depending on the client's needs. The firm's revenue model typically includes subscription fees, pay-per-consultation fees, or a combination of both.

Challenges

Emma, a mid-level account manager in Chicago, is tasked with enhancing the firm’s value proposition to retain a high-profile investment bank as a client. The bank has increasingly relied on direct engagement with startups and academia for insights, perceiving them as more cutting-edge than the traditional expert networks. Emma faces the dual challenge of demonstrating the unique value her firm can offer over these direct engagements and identifying new, compelling experts that can sway the investment bank’s opinion.
