Podcast Description:

In this first episode of 2025, I’m diving into five different client acquisition strategies—ranked from worst to best—based on my personal experience and the successes of my students. If you’ve been relying on outdated methods to land clients or feel stuck in your outreach approach, this episode is for you.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

  • Why Facebook and Instagram may no longer be your best bet.
  • The surprising effectiveness of in-person networking and events for building real connections.
  • How email outreach can still work—if done the right way.
  • Why LinkedIn continues to be the top platform for securing high-quality clients—and how to master it.

By the end of this episode, you’ll have a clear roadmap of where to focus your efforts for client acquisition and how to make 2025 your best business year yet.
