A discovery meeting is an initial meeting between a client and a service provider, typically in a business context, with the goal of identifying the client's needs and goals. Discovery meetings are often used in fields such as consulting, sales, and marketing.

During a discovery meeting, the service provider will ask questions to learn more about the client's business, challenges, and objectives. The provider may also use this opportunity to explain their services and approach to solving the client's problems. The meeting may also involve a review of relevant data, such as market research or financial reports.

The purpose of a discovery meeting is to gather information that will be used to develop a proposal or plan for addressing the client's needs. It can also help to establish a relationship of trust and understanding between the client and service provider.

Discovery meetings can be conducted in person, over the phone, or through video conferencing. They typically last between 30 minutes to an hour, but can vary in length depending on the complexity of the client's needs.
