Would your business thrive – not just survive – in today’s economy, if more of your professional team developed new business? If you answered Yes, Redstone Results can help!

Backed by 16 years’ experience as an attorney with Honigman Miller Schwartz and Cohn, and an arsenal of client development strategies, we know what works.

Why Redstone Results’ Business Development Forum Is Different:

  • We hand-select 26 professional service providers to participate in each forum.
  • We assess each participant’s communication strengths and help him or her select and master business development techniques that fit the participant’s individual style.
  • All participants attend our full-day workshop, The Art & Power of Conversation – Turning Small Talk Into Big Business, which fine-tunes the participant’s communication and relationship-building skills.
  • All participants strengthen their online and face-to-face networking skills.
  • Each participant receives personal coaching in developing his or her personal plan for business development.
  • We provide three follow-up breakfast workshops covering such topics as Finding Time For Business Development, Public Presentations, and Writing for Recognition.

This workshop is “very beneficial and helpful. [This Workshop helps professionals] to think outside the box.”


“Don't miss this one - It'll be the best thing you've ever done for yourself and your business.”


“Highly recommended - Well worth attending.”


“Thank you, thank you, thank you for offering a workshop that really delivers the goods. In the past 15 years, I have been to numerous workshops and seminars designed to help with sales skills, detect personality types, motivate….the list goes on. I have never walked away from one with such valuable tools as I did from The Art & Power of Conversation - Turning Small Talk into Big Business."

"I work with clients ranging from small family businesses to large advertising agencies, automobile dealers, insurance companies, restaurants, dentists and corporations big and small. I liked your focus on understanding how to talk to, deal with, and eventually do business with all types of people, by understanding their personality type, and your own."

"Within days I applied what I had learned to my negotiations and general communication with new and current clients. I can honestly say that I closed an important deal with a tough client (one that I’d been working on for three months) just 10 days after your seminar, using information and skills I learned from you. Thank you again.”

Debbie Petersmark, Senior Sales Representative, WILX TV 10, Lansing, Michigan
