Business Development Checklist
                                  The following list is a logical extension of the "Marketing Mix" pyramid. It is not meant to be an inclusive list for every vertical market and industry; it is to stimulate the background thought process behind strategic business development activities. 
The best way to utilize this resource is to think of internal and external sources for these activities, then allocate monetary and labor resources to accomplish your objectives. When plotted against an annual budget model, you can then revise your allocations to meet your monetary budget and establish tactical action steps to complete.
