Advancement Prospects
After 10 or so years of experience, a business development manager can advance to the position of director. And after several years of additional experience and a proven track record of increasing revenue for their companies, a director at a large company can advance to the position of vice-president of business development. Some business development professionals become management consultants or college professors.
