SXSW attracts design agency leaders who are seeking to not only refine their craft but also grow their businesses. Courting new clients can be a chaotic and painful distraction for designers wanting to focus on project work. Our facilitators have been on both sides of the table, leading numerous pitches but also formal agency partner selections. They will share stories from their time at McKinsey, frog design, and Philips Design in an interactive workshop. Participants will obtain a practical handbook to win business, sustain relationships, and have interesting projects for years to come.
