Ever wondered why some consultants consistently attract clients while others struggle to fill their pipeline? The answer isn't luck or market conditions—it's daily habits.

In this transformative masterclass, I reveal the 39 everyday profit habits that took me from an empty pipeline to being booked out seven months in advance with a six-week waitlist in just 90 days. When I temporarily abandoned these habits for 90 days, my sales pipeline collapsed. When I reactivated them, my business immediately revitalized. That's how powerful these systems are.

I break down specific, actionable habits across business development, offer ecosystem design, social media, content marketing, and email strategies that create a consistent flow of qualified leads. You'll discover why hot leads come from micro-offers, warm leads from active lead generators, and how gateway offers create a natural bridge to your signature services. 

The most valuable insight? You don't need complex marketing systems or huge audiences. You need consistent, strategic actions performed daily. I'll show you how to build these through habit stacking and batching, so they integrate seamlessly into your existing routine. No more throwing spaghetti at the wall hoping something sticks—these are proven systems that work.

My CFO recently pointed out that my profits grew 168% year-over-year. These habits, combined with operational optimization, made that possible. Whether you're starting from scratch or refining your strategy because something's not quite clicking, these everyday profit habits will transform your business within 90 days.

Have you ever had a service experience so good you were actually happy to pay the invoice? That's exactly what happened when I worked with Knapsack Creative for my website redesign—and I was so impressed, I had to get the inside scoop on how they engineered such a seamless client experience.

In this revealing conversation with Savannah from Knapsack Creative, we pull back the curtain on the systems and processes that allow their team to build complete Squarespace websites in as little as one day while keeping clients delighted throughout the journey. What emerges is a masterclass in client experience design that any service business can learn from.

Savannah walks us through their entire workflow—from the initial fit call to their unique project mapping system that gives clients total clarity on what to expect. We explore how they use Content Snare to make content collection painless, their strict time-blocking approach that makes projects predictable (Tuesdays and Thursdays are exclusively for client work!), and the meticulous documentation that ensures nothing falls through the cracks.

The most valuable insights come from understanding how they create what Savannah calls "micro yeses" throughout their process—small alignment points that prevent the dreaded "this isn't what I wanted" moment at project completion. Their collaborative approach keeps clients engaged while maintaining incredible efficiency.

Whether you're a solopreneur, agency owner, or in-house marketing leader, you'll find actionable strategies to transform your own client or stakeholder processes. Get ready to steal some seriously good ideas—I know I did! By the end of this episode, you'll understand why thoughtfully designed systems aren't just good for business—they're the secret to creating experiences clients can't stop talking about.

Struggling to turn website visitors into customers? The missing piece might be a strategically crafted lead magnet that does more than just collect email addresses.

In this workshop replay, I break down my framework for creating lead magnets that actually convert to sales. We dive deep into how your lead magnet should function as the first step in your customer's journey, connecting directly to your gateway offer and signature service. You'll discover why the most effective lead magnets mirror the experience of working with you and how this simple shift can dramatically improve your conversion rates.

Beyond just theory, I walk through the exact process for identifying your ideal lead magnet topic, choosing the right format, structuring it effectively, and setting up the technical components for seamless delivery. You'll learn how to use your thank you page as a selling tool and how to promote your lead magnet to reach your ideal clients.

What makes this approach different is the focus on strategic alignment. Your lead magnet shouldn't be a standalone piece of content—it should be the first step in a carefully designed journey that leads naturally to your paid offerings.

Whether you're creating your first lead magnet or optimizing existing ones, this episode provides the blueprint for transforming your lead generation system from merely collecting emails to consistently creating qualified prospects who understand your value and are ready to buy.

Ever found yourself wondering if LinkedIn is worth the effort for your business? Molly Godfrey, co-founder of Build Impact Convert, definitively answers this question with practical strategies that won't leave you feeling overwhelmed or inauthentic.

The biggest revelation? You don't need to live on LinkedIn to see results. Posting just three times weekly with strategic focus delivers far more impact than random daily content. "I don't even have the time for LinkedIn and I run a LinkedIn business," Molly confesses, immediately relieving the pressure many founders feel about the platform.

What sets LinkedIn apart from other social platforms is its professional environment. Your Instagram approach won't work here—LinkedIn requires content specifically tailored to its audience. The platform rewards good writing, especially when it aligns with your professional identity. Whether it's a perfectly crafted hook or an in-depth framework explanation, quality consistently rises above quantity.

Beyond posting, Molly shares her most powerful growth hack: maxing out your 100 connection requests weekly. This simple habit compounds dramatically, creating a passive pipeline of opportunities that often convert months later. Combined with strategic commenting on partners' content (just 20 minutes twice weekly), you'll extend your reach to ideal clients already engaged in relevant conversations.

The magic happens when you balance educational content with strategic sales messaging. Sharing client transformation stories provides powerful social proof without feeling promotional. As Molly explains, "People want to know if I hire you, you're going to get results." Add a consistent "post signature" to your posts—a brief reminder of who you help and how—and watch your direct message inquiries increase without additional effort.

Whether you're skeptical about LinkedIn's potential or simply haven't found your rhythm on the platform, Molly's approach offers a refreshingly realistic pathway to results. Connect with her to learn about her LinkedIn Accelerator Intensive, storytelling challenges, and digital resources designed to help founders leverage LinkedIn without the overwhelm.

Join the Gateway Offer

Are your sales calls leading nowhere? Do potential clients constantly ghost you after you've spent hours crafting the perfect proposal? There's a better way to convert prospects into paying clients, and it starts with implementing a gateway offer.

Gateway offers represent a paradigm shift in service-based business sales. Unlike traditional discovery calls that often result in ghosted proposals, a gateway offer provides immediate value while getting you paid for your expertise from the very first interaction. The concept is brilliantly simple: create a low-ticket, high-value offer that gives clients a taste of what working with you is like before they commit to your signature service.

As Sarah explains in this episode, the structure of an effective gateway offer includes both a live element (like an interview or assessment) and a deliverable (like a documented strategy or report). This combination builds the crucial know-like-trust factor while demonstrating your expertise in a tangible way. The magic happens when you use this paid discovery process to uncover exactly what the client needs, allowing you to perfectly position your signature offer during the review session.

The results speak for themselves. After implementing gateway offers in her business, Sarah was booked out six months in advance within just four months. Even more impressive, she maintains approximately a 75% conversion rate from gateway offers to her high-ticket services. This approach transforms your sales pipeline from unpredictable to reliable while eliminating the frustration of price-shopping clients who waste your time with no intention to buy.

Ready to implement this game-changing approach in your business? Sarah walks through everything from designing your gateway offer to pricing, selling, and systematizing the entire process. Whether you're struggling with inconsistent sales or simply looking to optimize your client acquisition, gateway offers provide a win-win solution that respects both your expertise and your clients' need to experience your work before making a bigger commitment.

Want to create your own gateway offer? Join Sarah's Gateway Offer Challenge starting August 1st and get 10 days of training, templates, coaching, and a 1:1 consultation to design your perfect gateway offer!

The mysterious world of LinkedIn selling doesn't have to be intimidating. Rich Brooks, president of Flight New Media and founder of the Agents of Change, breaks down exactly how B2B service providers can leverage LinkedIn to build meaningful relationships that naturally convert to sales—without the awkward pitch-slapping that makes us all cringe.

Unlike Instagram or Facebook where direct selling is common, LinkedIn demands a more nuanced approach focused on establishing expertise and building trust. Rich shares his framework for LinkedIn success, starting with profile optimization using strategic keywords and professional imagery. He explains the critical importance of checking your Social Selling Index (SSI)—LinkedIn's algorithm that determines your content reach—and offers practical tips to improve your score and visibility.

What makes this conversation particularly valuable is Rich's emphasis on "consent-based selling"—an approach where you build relationships first and only offer solutions when someone has explicitly expressed a need. "Nobody likes to be sold, but everybody loves to buy," he explains, outlining how to move conversations naturally from public comments to private messages to eventual sales calls without coming across as pushy or desperate.

The episode covers everything from earning credibility badges, strategically building your network to 500+ connections, creating native video content, and contributing to AI-generated articles—all tactics that position you as a trusted authority in your field. Whether you're new to LinkedIn or looking to refine your approach, these actionable insights will transform how you view social selling on this powerful B2B platform.

Feeling trapped by social media algorithms? Tired of the constant content creation hamster wheel? You're not alone. Today we're breaking free from the social media grind with three proven strategies to bring in quality clients consistently without relying on Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook.

We start by tackling the gold standard of lead generation: referrals. Discover why referred leads convert better and how to build a referral system that works automatically. I share my exact approach for making it effortless for happy clients to send business your way, including templates, timing strategies, and incentive structures that create win-win situations. The key insight? People genuinely want to help, but they need clear direction and occasional reminders.

Strategic partnerships emerge as our second powerful approach. Learn how to identify complementary businesses serving your same audience, create mutually beneficial relationships, and formalize arrangements that deliver consistent leads. I reveal why "owning a stage" – whether through a podcast, newsletter, or signature content series – creates natural partnership opportunities and how these collaborations expand your reach without advertising costs.

The final strategy – and my personal favorite – focuses on niche communities where your ideal clients already gather. I explain my "big fish in a tiny pond" approach that generated the majority of my income last year (my highest-earning year in five years). You'll discover how keyword alerts save time, how consistent value builds trust, and why my "consensual sales" philosophy leads to stress-free client acquisition.

Ready to build a more stable, algorithm-proof business? Pick one strategy and implement it this month. Remember, progress beats perfection every time. Your clients are out there waiting – no scrolling required.

Ever wondered how consultants generate significant revenue quickly without feeling salesy? The 6 to 6K Challenge reveals the exact framework I used to book $94,000 in contracts in just five days—and now I'm showing you how to adapt this method to earn $6,000 in six days.

At the heart of this approach is the bridge offer (or gateway offer)—a high-value, low-cost service priced at $1,000 or less. This carefully crafted offering solves an immediate client problem while creating a natural pathway to your higher-priced services. In today's uncertain economic climate, when prospects hesitate to make large commitments, these bridge offers provide the perfect low-risk entry point that still delivers substantial value.

The challenge follows a precise mathematical formula: identify 50 high-quality prospects, conduct strategic outreach, and aim to book 24 discovery calls. This pipeline typically converts to at least $6,000 in immediate revenue—but the real magic happens when clients experience your expertise and upgrade to premium services. Imagine selling six bridge offers and converting just half to a $10,000 main service. Suddenly, your six-day challenge has generated $36,000 in business!

The most effective bridge offers follow a three-part structure: a thorough discovery interview, a documented deliverable (strategy, roadmap, or analysis), and crucially, a live review session where you can address questions, overcome objections, and naturally introduce your more comprehensive solutions. This approach transforms the traditional proposal process into a collaborative experience that dramatically increases conversion rates.

Ready to implement this strategy yourself? Start by clarifying your revenue goals, designing your bridge offer, and identifying those critical 50 prospects in the niche communities where your ideal clients already gather. This foundation ensures that when you begin active outreach, you're positioned for success with a compelling offer and clear targets. Your $6,000 challenge could become the gateway to much more substantial, sustainable business growth.

Discovering potential clients doesn't have to feel like a wild goose chase. The secret? Learning to spot the people already raising their hands for your services on LinkedIn.

This special episode—our most requested content from five years of podcasting—unpacks proven strategies for B2B service founders looking to connect with ready-to-buy prospects. We break down six practical approaches that transform casual LinkedIn browsing into strategic client acquisition.

Learn how to interpret profile views as expressions of interest and respond with casual, non-creepy outreach. Discover the power of private DM prompts that identify interested parties without public pressure. Master the art of strategic connections by engaging with content creators who share your target audience, then connecting with their engaged followers. We also reveal a simple search hack to find people actively seeking your exact services and show you how to turn job postings into outsourcing opportunities.

For those ready to level up, we compare premium tools like LinkedIn Navigator with free alternatives like Apollo that help you filter for the perfect prospects based on company growth, new positions, and more. Throughout it all, we emphasize relationship-building over "pitch slapping" to create genuine connections that naturally lead to sales conversations.

Ready to stop chasing clients and start attracting the right ones? Listen now, then check out our comprehensive LinkedIn Playbook to implement these strategies for your business.

>> Get notified for The Bestseller Experiment <<

Marketing should work anywhere—but does it really? I put this challenge to the ultimate test by writing and launching a contemporary romance novel under a completely new pen name, with zero audience, zero borrowed credibility, and no marketing shortcuts.

The Bestseller Experiment is my new spinoff podcast that takes you behind the scenes of what happens when a professional marketer attempts to sell fiction from absolute scratch. Rather than hypotheticals or vague advice, I'm documenting every step of my real-world book marketing journey—both the spectacular wins and the humbling failures.

Just 10 days after launching my debut novel, the results surprised even me. Without spending a penny on advertising, I hit the top 10 in my Amazon category, maintained consistent daily sales, received over 30 reviews averaging 4.7 stars, and secured pre-orders for upcoming sequels. But more valuable than these metrics are the lessons learned through methodical experimentation.

>> Strings Attached by Sera Elly <<

Season one launches this July and will reveal exactly how I gained my first 100 readers, which platforms delivered unexpected success (TikTok was a game-changer), which strategies completely bombed, how I secured bookish media coverage, and the planning tools that kept everything on track. Season two follows in November, documenting my October book release with refined strategies based on these initial insights.

Whether you're a writer looking to market your work, a business owner launching a new venture, or simply fascinated by marketing psychology when building from zero, this podcast offers a transparent look at growth marketing without an established audience. Subscribe now through the show notes to join me on this journey and be first to know when new episodes drop.
