Fractional business development in Hong Kong, Singapore and Southeast Asia

A senior business development person who works for you part-time, on the ground, instead of being hired full-time. They take meetings in your name, own the pipeline, and represent you the way an employee would. The model is the same one behind fractional CFOs and CMOs, applied to the commercial front line.

An agency hands you a list and a report. An SDR, in-house or outsourced, works the top of the funnel at volume: sequences, replies, meetings booked. A fractional BD partner works the middle and the bottom, which is where deals in Asia are actually won or lost. They sit in the meeting, read the room, and follow up in person. The two stack, and they are not substitutes for each other.

A local business development hire in Hong Kong or Singapore costs $120,000 to $180,000 a year before office and benefits, takes months to find, and needs about six months to ramp before you learn anything. A mandate starts producing signal in weeks and stops on thirty days' notice. If the market answers, hiring becomes an easy decision made on evidence rather than a bet.

From $3,800 a month, scoped per mandate, plus a success fee on first-year closed-won agreed per deal. Three-month minimum, then monthly, with thirty days' notice. Smaller fixed-fee ways to start are priced in full on the services page.

One fractional mandate at a time. When a mandate is running we take nothing on that competes with it for attention. If we are open we will say so on the first call, and if we are not we will say that too.
