The Business Development Consultancy (BDC) was formed in Jan 2000 by Clifford Thomas, to bridge the SME Sales Gap for companies that offer services to business.

Over the years BDC has successfully helped many business owners close the SME Sales Gap (SME SALES GAP phrase developed by BDC in 2005) and is now one of the leading consultancies in the UK specialising in this area.

One of the key reasons for BDC's success is that it understands the issues facing the SME business owner.  BDC charges nothing in advance for its services and does not expect any client to enter into long term contracts or agreements. Clients just pay for what they use. We like to say, we are only as good as our last sale.

BDC has created Intelligent Selling (IS) designed specifically to help the business owner to close the SME Sales Gap. It allows business owners to concentrate on their business whilst BDC develops more sales and helps them gain a competitive advantage.

Also BDC has launched SME.SkillGate.com a unique e-Learning tool designed to help business owners close the SME Training Gap.

BDC is based in Worthing
