Is something missing from your Scope of Work? It is meant to protect you and your clients which is why I invited my guest to share her best practices with us today.  Mandy Pearce is a seasoned consultant and coach with impeccable client boundaries, that are all clearly defined in her scope of work and contracts which she has refined over the years.   I enjoyed getting her recommendations on some scenarios my clients have experienced and hearing her recommendations for avoiding sticky situations in the future.   Finally, I always love to get to know my guests a little better and find out what we have in common. It was so much fun to learn about Mandy's family businesses growing up and exposure to entrepreneurship from a young age.

***Currently reviewing applications for 2025 1:1 Coaching and Impact Collective Mastermind!*** The majority of consultants start off as GENERALISTS and over time find they need to POSITION themselves as an expert in the marketplace by either "specializing" by the services they offer or by "niching" the clients they serve AND in some cases they do both. Jenny Kontos niched her marketing agency, Hillhouse Creative, in 2021 to only serve established nonprofit clients and this streamlined many of her business development activities and focused her team. In this coaching session, I surprise Jenny by suggesting she position her business further by SPECIALIZING her services with a signature offer. We discuss the pros and cons of this shift, strategies for client acquisition, and the importance of maintaining long-term client relationships plus best next steps. Spoiler alert: changing your positioning for your NEXT clients does not need to impact your current and favorite clients! Visit Hillhouse Creative Website Connect with Jenny Kontos on LinkedIn Connect with Natalie on LinkedIn - let's discuss this episode and be sure to thank Jenny for allowing me to coach her on air!

***Currently reviewing applications for 2025 1:1 Coaching and Impact Collective Mastermind!*** One of the most challenging transitions for consultants is shifting from handling all client work to having a trusted team member take over.

In this episode, I explore the stages of handing off clients to team members, how to establish and communicate core values, and the mindset shifts needed to let go of control.

This journey is a path to a sustainable business that's less dependent on you as the owner.

I hope you enjoy the practical tips to help you confidently move from a solo “I” to a team-focused “we.” You've got this!

***Currently reviewing applications for 2025 1:1 Coaching and Impact Collective Mastermind!***   High ticket projects which I define it as a project anywhere from $25K to $300K and everything in between require more sophistication in several areas to protect yourself as a business owner.

High ticket projects are normally delivered over the course of several months and for multi-six figure projects, those can extend beyond a year and even up to 3 years.

While the big project numbers I just shared likely sounds amazing, there are several things that make this type of business more complicated.

I have 5 watchouts to cover with you in this training episode.

1) Longer Sales Cycle

2) Pricing

3) Scope Creep

4) Project Management

5) Advance Cash Flow Techniques Required

This episode is an example of things that I help my clients with regularly and demonstrates how I teach and train.

Creating and holding boundaries with your team can be a challenge (especially if you already struggle with boundaries in your personal life). Once you have team members, a good portion of your time needs to be devoted to leading them by coaching, training and providing feedback. In order, to communicate well you also need to document and communicate your policies and procedure.  I have some great examples from current and past clients and some scenarios from my own life and business that might surprise you and give you ideas for your business.
