I am a sole proprietor, of a PR/Marketing/Events Planning boutique firm in NY, presently working from Home. I am meeting with a NEW client this week. I have experience doing PRand Marketing work for authors, screenwriters, book publishing companies, fashion designers, to name a few of my previous projects, but have NEVER done any PR and/or Marketing for a restaurant. I am fairly new to this business. I am learning daily. My question is What should I have prepared for an initial meeting with a NEW client? In the past I have walked into an intial meeting with a notepad and some ideas. Should I have something prepared in writing (a presentation of sorts) before really having an idea what the client expects of my company, or can that be presented during the second/follow-up meeting?
Thanks in advance for your help.
