Hello, I’m Sejal (pronounced Sage-l) Patel. My story in the realm of business development didn’t begin with immediate triumphs but with valuable lessons that paved the way for who I’ve become today—a trusted Business Development Consultant in New York with a 20-year legacy of guiding firms towards growth and success.

My journey commenced in 2003 with a challenging start: 800 meetings over two years, yet not a single cent in return. It was a test of endurance and belief in my mission. A pivotal conversation changed everything—a friend’s simple yet profound advice: “Be yourself; that’s who people want to work with.” With nothing left to lose, I embraced this mantra.

This shift towards authenticity wasn’t just a change in strategy, but a transformative approach to how I connected with people. It turned the tide. My authenticity became the cornerstone of my services, allowing me to forge genuine connections and, in turn, helping my clients not only meet but exceed their goals.

Now, I am committed to imparting the skills gained from those early struggles to empower professionals in law and consulting firms. With me, you’re not just building a business; you’re building a legacy of authentic, meaningful relationships that drive success.

If you’re striving for a practice that thrives not just on numbers but on real, human connections, let’s start this journey together. Book an introductory meeting with me today, and let’s harness the power of being authentically you to grow your business.
