Specialties
The Buchanan Group began in 2013 to address a need to provide state-of-the-art communications tools, strategies, and coaching catering to individual professionals and small firms. Through one-on-one coaching and facilitating workshops we were able to establish a unique brand and approach to helping elite professionals develop applied skills, tool-sets, and individualized plans to grow their presence, gain credibility, build relationships with peers, create rapport with existing and future clients, and cultivate partnerships to achieve success. We are structured around a core philosophy: leveraging existing capabilities and augmenting capacity to conduct better outreach and business development through more strategic and effective communications.
