TUESDAY, JUNE 8 @ 12 PM

The AIA Pennsylvania Small Firm Exchange (SFxPA) invites small firm leaders and aspiring firm owners to share and discover how peers manage existing client relationships and workloads while securing a pipeline of future clientele and projects. The forum will hinge around three discussion prompts:

  • Are there any small touches that have made a big impact with respect to improving your existing client relationships or generating new clients?
  • What have you invested in to help better manage existing client relationships or projects?
  • What have you invested in that has helped generate client leads?
