184: How One Connection Can Build Your Client Pipeline


Listen Later

Finding clients can take more time than actually doing the work, especially when you are building a side hustle alongside a full time job. But what if you could bring opportunities to you instead of constantly chasing them?

Today Megan Leasher explains how she built a client pipeline by positioning herself inside existing ecosystems instead of relying on traditional outreach. Instead of hunting for clients, she focuses on partnerships, visibility, and strategic positioning that bring opportunities directly to her.

She also shares how she structured things with her employer so her side hustle and full time role can coexist smoothly, along with practical steps you can take this week to start building your own pipeline.

In this episode, you will learn:

  • The three ways she consistently gets clients without chasing them
  • How contractor pools and partner firms can become built in lead sources
  • Why smaller firms can be powerful allies for growing your client base
  • Low cost and no cost ways to build credibility and visibility
  • How speaking, writing, and communities can act as referral engines
  • What to know about joining a Forbes advisory council and whether it is worth it

Do you like what you're hearing? Consider giving it a caffeinated thumbs up. We'd really appreciate it!
