Helping good businesses grow

We work with environmental and purpose-driven SMEs as your fractional business development team. No jargon. No pushy tactics. Just honest, human support that gets results.

Sound familiar?

  • We don’t have the time (or headspace) for sales.”

  • "We don't want to seem 'salesy'.”

  • "We go to events… and come home with nothing but a tote bag.”

  • “We’re doing amazing work, but no one knows about us.”

​

​

If that’s you, you’re in the right place.

Our services

We don’t just write a plan and leave you hanging. We get in the weeds with you.

What people say about us:

“We decided to engage Prosper Business Development to deliver an audit, due to the fact we felt we needed someone who wasn't working within the business day in and day out.

We wanted a fresh pair of eyes to be able to bring a new perspective and new ideas, but not only that, a clear understanding on how and when we could implement the recommendations, to enable our business to attract new clients.

It's been over a year since the audit was delivered face to face and I'm pleased to say that using the roadmap has put us in a much better position to win new business than we were previously."

Mark Burletson, MD, Human Workspace

Who we are.

We believe that sales should feel human, not sleazy. Honesty always beats jargon. You can do good work and grow - they’re not opposites. A laugh and a pint go a long way in building trust.

I have over 20 years of experience in sales but things really clicked when I was taught an open, honest approach, which has enabled me to build strong and lasting relationships.

​

Having seen how climate change was impacting the world and finding out more about the environmental and sustainability industry in general, I decided that I wanted to use my skillset to help companies in the industry, expand.

​

Previous clients have described the way we work as “not like any of the salespeople we’ve worked with before,” which I think is a testament to the success of our approach.

 

Jonny Wilkinson called me a legend when I ran the London marathon.

I am the boot wellie throwing champion in my family.

Patrick Allen, Director

I found my passion in sales, working with sustainability professionals and supporting causes close to my heart. â€‹

​

Since then, I’ve helped businesses across multiple industries on their journey to creating a bigger impact.

​

​The rest of the time, you’ll find me tuning into podcasts, chasing great food, exploring the South Downs, or connecting with sustainability and business groups around the UK.

My unofficial title is Chief Legend.
