Mikel Dyer
Mikel Dyer, the founder of a professional services company, Adroitly, runs her business from a home office in North Carolina. Discovering NBDA through an online search, she visited our virtual networking events and registered for one of our live conferences, Sell Well 2024, in Houston.
At the conference, Mikel connected with several referral partners who are now sending her valuable sales leads for new clients who need proven, operational business strategies. With the support of the NBDA, Mikel is also launching her own networking meetings with a goal of supporting military spouses who are entrepreneurs.
Mikel's journey with Adroitly highlights the power of combining virtual and in-person events to build lasting professional relationships and expand business opportunities.

Julia Rock
"Joining NBDA has been one of the best decisions I have made for growing my business this year. After attending Sell Well 2024 and becoming a member of NBDA, I have built relationships that have opened the door for new consulting and coaching opportunities. It has also helped me to make the decision to discontinue low-value services in my business in order to 10x my business growth in 2025."
Rob Johnson
"Through attending two lunches with NBDA, we have a proposal for a new client pending, and I networked to find another consultant to add to my team.
NBDA's value has far exceeded the time commitment I've put in to date."
Robin Sturgis
“Catherine’s help as my firm launches a business development team has been indispensable. She has (and is) providing the education we have greatly needed to effectively grow our business. She is easy to work with, generous with her guidance, professional in her approach, and comprehensive in the resources she provides. I highly recommend!”
Meet NBDA's President Catherine Brown
Entrepreneurs and business development professionals know that no lead generation tactic produces qualified leads better than a referral.
Referrals become new clients 50-90% of the time! Because referrals are the easiest and least expensive path to your next client, I created an ecosystem of networking groups for B2B companies called The Good Humans Growth Network.
And in 2024, NBDA became our flagship network! In addition to referral opportunities, I'm hosting training sessions and events to help you accelerate your success.
