Listen Later

If you missed it, here’s Part 1 of our live event replay: 7 Ways to Land Clients.

This episode is Part 2, and I’m joined by three of our Workgroup members share how they consistently book clients without cold pitching or chasing leads. We’re talking about the real strategies that work—building genuine relationships, growing your reputation, and showing up with visibility that gets noticed.

  • Angela Kiszka shares how genuine relationships and clear positioning as a funnel strategist built her referral-fueled business, where clients come straight from name drops.
  • Janelle Harlan reveals how podcast guesting and bundle collaborations led to multiple long-term clients (including a $50K retainer) by owning her niche in email and ActiveCampaign.
  • Connie Hurlburt breaks down how relationship marketing with her network and follow-through keep her booked with repeat clients who trust her expertise.

Listen to learn more about:

  • The power of relationships and reputation that bring in repeat clients
  • Visibility opportunities that actually convert to paid projects
  • Positioning and niching so people instantly know what you do
  • The mindset shift from chasing clients to attracting them naturally

If you’re tired of chasing clients and ready to have them come to you, this episode will show you what’s possible when you build genuine relationships and step into visibility.
