What's the difference between a successful freelancer and one who struggles with feast or famine? It's not how good you are at your craft, but how you position yourself to clients. Amy Posner is a seasoned online entrepreneur and business coach who helps digital creative freelancers build breakthrough businesses. Over her 30-year career, she's launched six successful businesses (five of which are still in business today) and mentored thousands of freelancers to success.  Now, Amy focuses on empowering freelancers to grow the business they want by teaching them the skills they need to attract the right clients inside her Complete Breakthrough Freelancer course and on her podcast, Business Badassery. Overcoming Feast or Famine The biggest challenge for freelancers is feast or famine–a windfall of work followed by a period of little to no income. The best way to overcome this is with business systems and processes, so you always have another project in the pipeline. Amy teaches her students skills like writing proposals, selling on calls, and communicating the value they deliver. Many successful freelancers give their clients expert strategic advice, but are selling themselves as order takers–someone who does nothing more than follow orders and create deliverables. If you position yourself as a strategist, you're perceived as much more valuable.  The Difference between an Order Taker and an Expert The primary difference between order takers and experts is that experts deliver an experience, not just deliverables. It starts on the discovery call, when you first connect with the client. High-quality clients want a strategic partner, someone they can trust to give them expert advice and who is interested in getting results. Once you've landed the client, you need to deliver on the experience you've promised. When in doubt, overcommunicate and overdeliver. Again, systems and processes come in handy here. Keep the client in the loop on what's happening, especially for longer projects. Be reliable and do what you say you're going to do. Enjoy this episode with Amy Posner… Soundbytes 12:29-12:43 “I see so many successful freelancers who are giving expert advice, and they're counseling as experts, but they're selling themselves as a creator of deliverables. And you're seen in a very different light.” 18:02-18:21 “The truth is, you don't need a unique perspective. You need a perspective. If a client's going out looking, they don't care that I think the same thing you do. They care what I think. So they're not looking necessarily for originality. They're looking for a stake in the ground, that you believe in something and that you have something to say.”  Quotes “What I noticed was that you could be really great at your craft. And if you didn't have commensurate business skills, you didn't do as well as mediocre craftspeople who had the business side down.” “Nobody gets into business to sell stuff. They get into business because they love doing a thing.”  “I'm a chronic over-deliverer. I like to get invested in people and in getting results.” Links mentioned in this episode: From Our Guest Website: https://amyposner.com/ Connect with Amy Posner on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amyposnerbusinessgrowthmentor/  Connect with brandiD Download our free guide to learn 16 crucial website updates that attract more leads and convert visitors into clients: https://thebrandid.com/website-tweaks/ Ready to elevate your digital presence with a powerful brand or website?

Send us a textLife can often feel like a game, one where strategy, humor, and unexpected inspirations guide us through its complexities. Imagine viewing your everyday challenges as levels in a video game, where you learn to laugh off minor annoyances and focus on the truly important quests. Our episode kicks off with a personal tale of how a father's short stint in the NFL surprisingly fueled a career trajectory that now involves working closely with professional athletes. This journey highlights the unpredictable paths life can take and how they can align with our aspirations. We also ponder the simulation theory and the notion of a creator, while humorously acknowledging how dogs might be the best judges of a person's energy.Transitioning from life's philosophical musings, we draw analogies between romantic partnerships and business relationships. The quest to find the right fit becomes an enlightening exploration of client dynamics. Reflecting on my own experiences, I share insights from eight years in business, where understanding the psychological nuances of clients can be as crucial as demographic data. Discovering the ideal client isn't just about ticking boxes; it's about learning from past experiences, navigating through difficult client situations, and ultimately creating successful relationships by balancing hard metrics with intangible qualities.In today's bustling digital marketing world, where the tension between quantity and quality prevails, our conversation shifts to strategies for thriving in this landscape. Much like in dating, the focus on quality over quantity is emphasized through the selection of client management systems and marketing strategies. Finally, we delve into the specifics of B2B marketing within the construction industry, where branding and crafting compelling RFPs are pivotal. Whether you're in digital marketing or navigating life's unpredictable game, our episode offers insights and strategies to ensure growth and fulfillment in various arenas.Support the showSubscribe to our Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHHOVBghX_ENHwg2QhYUzlQDM us on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/creatitive/Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/creatitive/View our Website: https://creatitive.com

Did you like this episode? Dislike it? While there may be that worry of not attracting clients to your law firm at all, there should also be a thought or two about attracting better clients.Chris Clark of Clark.Law talks about the importance of getting ideal clients through the door. If you accept any and every person that needs help, you may run into trouble. They could need help that you do not provide, they could be super uneducated about their situation, or they could just not be nice people.

Why you're not getting more dream clients... and what to do actually do about it  Don't talk about it, be about it Don't think about taking the action, actually take the action   The life you're looking for is on the other side of you refusing to settle for anything less XO Maddie   

If you want better clients, you need to convey that you are very special, not like most attorneys. How you convey that message is everything. You can't communicate in cliches or brazen claims. You must come across as sincere, thoughtful, and truly considerate.  In this session, we'll discuss how to do that using simple, easy-to-write emails. In this episode, you will hear: Marketing tactics for attracting quality clients Effective marketing strategies for lawyers Client referral strategies with testimonials Email marketing for lawyers Resources from this Episode Sign up for my Educational Email course to see my process for encouraging opt-ins and then sending valuable information by email.

Are you tired of working on projects that are, well… a little boring? Lackluster? Or with clients who are no longer your vibe? I get it! This is one of the first symptoms that it's time to not only level up your clientele and the type of copywriting projects you take on but also expand your brand. In this episode, we'll explore the crucial first step to landing better clients - improving your messaging.

I'm thrilled to share my recent conversation with Elliot Greenwood, the co-founder of Chckup.app, a game-changing digital marketing app for veterinary hospitals. Chckup is an innovative app that goes beyond just reminders and analytics. It's a tool that unlocks the full potential of veterinary practices by leveraging owned data, such as email lists and phone numbers, to generate more revenue and attract better clients. During our chat, Elliot shared the story behind Chckup's birth and how they pivoted from focusing on price comparison for human medicine to addressing the need for better software in the veterinary space. What sets Chckup apart is its all-in-one solution that seamlessly integrates with practice management systems. It offers features like scheduling, client communication, analytics, and reviews, simplifying the booking process and maximizing conversions. Elliot emphasized the importance of personalization in marketing and how Chckup is revamping their reminders feature to allow for more targeted and personalized messages. We also discussed the potential of AI in veterinary practices, agreeing that the industry needs to be better prepared before fully integrating AI technology. Elliot also shared valuable insights on building referral partners and the importance of bringing value to those partnerships. As a user of Chckup myself, I appreciate their focus on solving the problem of marketing attribution, something that many other apps fail to address. To connect with Chckup and take advantage of a special deal for podcast listeners, visit Chckupapp.com and follow them on social media. I want to extend my gratitude to Elliot for his time and insights. Chckup's work is a testament to the importance of maximizing revenue to support staff and help pets. I'm excited to see how Chckup continues to revolutionize the veterinary industry.

If you work in commercial real estate, you understand the value of having an excellent customer list. A customer list is more than simply a list of names and phone numbers; it is a significant asset that may help you produce more leads, referrals, and commissions. But how can you build a better client list to give you a competitive advantage? Here are some pointers to get you started. Getting More Results from Client Contact Divide your client list into segments. Clients are not all the same, and you should not treat them as such. Your customer list should be segmented depending on factors such as property type, geography, budget, needs, preferences, and level of interaction. This will allow you to adjust your marketing and communication tactics to each segment and provide more relevant and personalised services to them. Keep your client list up to date. Your client list is not a static document that needs to be updated regularly. Any changes in your clients' information, such as phone numbers, email addresses, job titles, or company names, should be recorded. To prevent wasting time and resources on inactive or unresponsive customers, delete them from your list. Maintain your client list. Creating a customer list is not enough; you must nurture it and cultivate long-term connections with your clients. You should communicate with your clients frequently and supply them with useful information such as market updates, industry news, tips, or event invitations. You should also solicit comments, testimonials, or referrals from satisfied customers and thank them for their patronage. Increase your clientele. While maintaining existing clients is crucial, you should also seek for ways to grow your client base and reach out to new prospects. You can produce more leads by networking, social media, online advertising, cold calling, or direct mail. You should also tap into the networks of your current clients and ask for introductions or references to future clients. By following these suggestions, you may build a stronger client base that will allow you to expand your commercial real estate business and achieve more success.    

In commercial real estate brokerage, the most valuable customers are known as "key accounts." They are your ‘bread and butter' as an agent or broker. These clients should be at the centre of your prospecting activities. They will drive revenue, spread the word, and remain loyal across many real estate transaction types.   Check out our article on this critical new business topic on our website here.   Getting Your Lists Started   How do you go about beginning to handle your key accounts? Large corporations, financial institutions, and investors are easy pickings because they likely have holdings or transactions in more than one geographical area.     It is impossible to overestimate the significance of key accounts. They allow brokers to develop long-term relationships, learn about their client's needs and preferences, and leverage their network and reputation.   Key accounts also provide a consistent source of income or commissions for brokers because they tend to give repeat business and negotiate larger deals. Key accounts can also assist brokers in increasing their market share and reaching new prospects.   Establish Your List of Important People   What does your key account list look like? Have you created the segments that allow you to focus into the VIP Key Accounts in your real estate business?  It's time to help those special clients.   To effectively manage key accounts, brokers must take a strategic approach that focuses on delivering value and exceeding expectations with commercial property. Brokers must understand their key accounts' property goals, challenges, and opportunities and tailor their services accordingly.     Brokers must also regularly communicate with their key accounts, provide feedback and updates, and anticipate future needs. There is always change in the property market; you are the consistent element that moves with the market.   Think about today's property market and how you can connect with the ‘high value' people. Brokers should strive to provide value-added solutions beyond the transaction's transactional aspects, such as market research, financial analysis, or consulting services.  

For almost a decade, Davina Frederick has helped hundreds of women law firm owners increase their revenue (and profits!) by 30, 40, 50, and even 250 percent. She believes there's a way to wealth that doesn't sacrifice wellness. She knows this because she has lived it. Davina founded and grew her own successful law firm business with $5,000 in startup capital, $80,000 in student loan debt, and no backup plan. But she was hungry to succeed and confident that it was the right move. She hired an assistant, upgraded her office, added hundreds of clients, and drove revenue higher and higher. She was living the dream. But there was one problem: She was miserable. Davina was not just a litigator. She was the senior partner, managing attorney, firm administrator, and unofficial therapist for her clients and her team. She was depleted. Her marriage and health were unraveling. She started to worry she was going to drop dead from cardiac arrest before she found a solution. Hitting rock bottom forced her to think about what she wanted. She realized that what she wanted was more than just money. It was space. Flexibility to work when, where, and how much she wanted. Freedom to take time off without her business falling apart. So she took a leap: she launched a virtual law firm business with the help of a mentor who introduced her to the life-changing power of coaching. Her coach taught her that she could design a law firm that didn't destroy her life and health. In fact, it could enhance it. This changed everything. Davina built a business that ran itself. She worked less. She earned more. She took time off, and the business churned on. And now she takes everything she's learned, and she teaches other women law firm owners to do the same. ---------------------------------------- This show is sponsored by Leopard Solutions Legal Intelligence Suite of products, Firmscape, and Leopard BI. Push ahead of the pack with the power of Leopard. For a free demo, visit this link: https://www.leopardsolutions.com/index.php/request-a-demo/ Links: https://www.wealthywomanlawyer.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/davinafrederick/

In this episode, you will learn how to: Create a well-defined service (that makes sense to prospective clients) Make changes to your business but bring your existing clients along with you Accept that not everyone is the perfect fit for your business Creating a well-defined business and finding the perfect clients is an evolution; it takes time, but it's oh so worth it.  Let's do the ReWork! Here's a glance at this episode: [2:35] - What we really want is to love the way we're working. [4:27] - There's a misconception around finding higher end clients. [5:00] - It all starts with you. [6:01] - Attracting the right client comes from being extremely clear. [7:41] - A big reason photographers are not clear from the start is because they don't know what they want. [9:40] - Kathryn demonstrates how she has conversations that are very clear. [10:50] - In the beginning, Kathryn took all the jobs, even the ones she didn't want. [12:02] - Kathryn and Allison describe her perfect clients. [14:45] - You being able to capture the image that is exactly what your client is looking for is the best feeling. [15:45] - When becoming more clear on her services, Kathryn shifted her existing clients to work with her the way she wanted. [18:20] - Allison came to the realization that she wasn't willing to do what everyone else was doing anymore. [20:16] - The job is not only to be available for what the client wants, but to educate them on what you provide exactly. [22:10] - You will know through having a conversation with a potential client whether or not they are a great fit. [24:59] - Show what you want to sell. But don't show the things you don't want to sell. [25:59] - It's not thinking about the perfect client, but about how you want to work. [27:46] - Kathryn demonstrates how she would start the conversation with an existing client. [29:43] - Don't make changes to your business and drop all of your existing clients. Some people will come along with you.   Links and Resources: Kathryn LangsfordWebsite | Instagram Do The ReWorkWebsite | Instagram Allison Tyler JonesWebsite | Instagram | LinkedIn
