In this episode of The Rainmaking Podcast, host Scott Love speaks with Mo Bunnell, author of The Snowball System and founder of Bunnell Idea Group, about how professionals can develop repeatable, scalable business development habits. Mo breaks down rainmaking into three manageable areas: managing opportunities, managing relationships, and managing yourself. He explains how professionals can build a simple weekly rhythm by tracking their top opportunities and investing in a short list of eight key relationships, all while committing to just three proactive business development actions each week.

Mo emphasizes the importance of long-term relationship-building and intentional outreach, noting that professionals don’t need to be extroverts to succeed—they just need a system. He also introduces his BIG framework for goal-setting: tasks that are Big impact, In your control, and Growth-oriented. For those navigating a demanding client load while still trying to grow a book of business, this episode offers a strategic, low-friction path to staying consistent and effective.
