Very few people can close complex, high-value deals. We call them Rainmakers. As it turns out, they are very hard to find. Instead, we built Njord on top 19 different systems, including stakeholder, media, productivity and CRM tools. This allows our clients to scale their very best people rather than failing to hire more of them. Welcome to the Rainmaker opportunity.
