“One of our business development heads was trying to close on an $800M deal with a developer, but we needed to gain access to the Private Equity firm that owns the developer to solidify the deal. We looked up the PE firm in RelSci, and right away saw that our CEO had numerous paths into the head of the firm, including both a professional path and a path through a board he sits on. Our CEO got in touch with the PE firm, and we closed the deal.”

I then return to the conversation armed with this information and can subtly drop names and weave in data points to make the conversation that much warmer. Already, I have witnessed a big increase in the effect of my networking at my events.”
