In today's episode, I chat with Abundance Party member Jo-Ann, who niches in women diagnosed later in life with ADHD, about why her marketing isn't quite matching her ideal client yet. We talk through why networking with psychiatric practices & testing psychologists is worth doubling down on since it's already working for her, why YouTube & Instagram may not be the right fit unless she genuinely loves creating content, & how to speak directly to her ideal client's daily overwhelm (aging parents, kids, & the grief of a late diagnosis) instead of getting caught up comparing herself to the bigger ADHD conversation happening online.

"The message that you will only see proper and consistent success if you have a crazy number of eyes on you is one of the biggest lies you've ever been told."If you're building a business right now and wondering why the strategies that used to work suddenly aren't working anymore, you're not imagining it. The game has changed but that doesn't mean it's over.In this chat, I'm breaking down one of the biggest lies entrepreneurs have been sold: that you need more followers, more views, more content, and more visibility to make more money. You don't.Social media can absolutely help grow your business, but it should be a way, not the way. Instead of chasing algorithms and constantly trying to get in front of more people, I'm sharing why your focus needs to shift back to the fundamentals that build sustainable businesses. Yes, we're talking sales, relationships, repeat customers, and knowing exactly how much money you actually need to make. Don't Miss This Chat On:Why more followers don't automatically mean more moneyHow to grow a business without relying on social mediaWhy sales skills matter more than learning the latest algorithmThe 1,000 True Fans strategy and what it means for your businessHow to calculate your true income goal and reverse engineer your salesWhy going deep with the audience you already have can beat constantly chasing more visibilityHow real relationships create a more sustainable businessYou do not need to go viral to build a business that works. You need the right people, a product you believe in, and the willingness to actually ask for the sale.It's not over yet.

Almost nobody does the same for the last — and it's costing them more than they think.In this episode, Sylvia Garibaldi breaks down why the end of a case isn't the end of the relationship. She covers why referrals quietly leak business even when clients love you, how to build natural moments for past clients to come back, how to layer in services your clients already need, and how to turn a closed file into your best source of new business.You'll walk away with a way to spot where your practice is losing returning clients, a framework for adding services that fit your existing client base, and a shift from constantly chasing new clients to getting more out of the relationships you already have.

What if the problem isn't that you're not creating enough content? What if you're creating too much of the wrong kind? In this conversation, Jana Osofsky shares a radically different approach to content marketing—one that prioritizes building assets over feeding algorithms. Instead of chasing consistency, trends, and endless content calendars, she teaches business owners how to create a small library of evergreen content that continues moving people toward a buying decision long after it's published. Kehla and Jana explore why most content educates without converting, how to identify the specific conversations your audience needs before they're ready to buy, and why repetition is often more valuable than creating something new. They also unpack the role of AI in content creation, where it helps, where it hurts, and how to use it without losing your voice in the process. If you've ever felt exhausted by content marketing, overwhelmed by the pressure to constantly create, or frustrated that your content isn't leading to sales, this episode offers a simpler and more sustainable way forward.

Ever wonder if your intake process is quietly costing you clients? Yeah, we hear that a lot. That's why in this episode, Uriah is tackling the real problem practice owners keep running into — not marketing, not clinical skills, but intake. Specifically, what happens in that critical window between someone reaching out and someone actually responding. We're talking about the stats that will make you rethink everything. The four solutions most practices try. The honest pros and cons of each. And the one combination that actually works: AI for speed, humans for care. These aren't hypothetical scenarios. This is what's happening in group practices every single day. So we figured it was time to lay it all out, plain and simple. Hit play, and find out what your intake process has been missing.

More clients isn't always more money—especially when your calendar is crammed, your energy is thin, and your revenue still feels fragile. We pull back the curtain on why a time-for-money model keeps therapists stuck and show how to design profit with intention, not exhaustion. If your income goals require more sessions than you can realistically hold, you don't have a marketing problem; you have a revenue model problem.We start by optimizing the foundation you already have. You'll learn how to align fees with your expertise, turn referrals from a happy accident into a reliable system, and use onboarding to set clear expectations that reduce churn. We reframe retention as ethical, client-centered continuity, not a failure to “fix” fast—because growth takes time and therapy can serve people across seasons of life.Then we explore ethical leverage that expands impact without draining capacity. Think small groups, intensives, retreats, or online workshops, along with digital tools like workbooks that deepen progress between sessions. These offers welcome folks not ready for one-to-one while strengthening outcomes for current clients. Finally, we cut through the noise with a simple rule: choose one strategy, commit for 90 days, and track the tasks and metrics that matter. No content treadmill, no sprawling product suite—just focused execution that compounds.You'll walk away with a practical blueprint to increase revenue, protect your energy, and build a more resilient practice: optimize what works, add a single leveraged offer, and create systems that run at a humane pace.

If you want to get more clients from your emails, it's as simple as listening to this episode, and making sure your emails have all 7 ingredients. Listen now. Show highlights include: The "Remove Dirt" marketing secret that unlocks twice the amount of clients for half of the work (1:38) 7 ingredients I'd include if I were designing an email marketing campaign for financial advisors with my life on the line (5:02) Why emails that attempt to educate or provide value always get pummeled by this type of email almost nobody tells you to send (5:16) One word that you should almost NEVER use in your emails because it can only scare away your best prospective clients (and a simple way to reframe the theme so your audience is receptive to it) (6:43) The weird way listing your credentials and experience backfires and makes a prospective client go scroll through Facebook instead of finish reading your email (12:25) A specific way to phrase your call-to-action in an email that makes it irresistible for qualified prospects to disobey (15:54) Since you listen to this podcast, I want to give you a gift: If you subscribe to the Inner Circle Newsletter, I'll send you a collection of seven "objection busting" and copyright free emails, personally written by me, that you can use right away to begin getting more clients.

How to Get More Clients Without Working Harder with Philip VanDusenBrand Design Masters Podcast – EP 158BONFIRE https://philipvandusen.com/bonfireTUBEBUDDY (affiliate link) https://tubebuddy.com/philipvandusenGetting more clients doesn't have to mean working longer hours, posting nonstop on social media, or chasing cold leads that go nowhere. In this episode, Philip VanDusen breaks down how creative professionals can grow their client base without burning out by widening their offer, strengthening their network, and positioning themselves as strategic partners instead of execution-only vendors. You'll learn where clients actually come from for freelancers, consultants, and small creative agencies, and why referrals and partnerships consistently outperform ads and content marketing combined. Philip explains the real math behind client funnels and why a narrow service offering and a shallow network will always limit your growth, no matter how talented you are.This episode introduces the concept of “Design Plus”, a smarter way to expand your value without learning every new skill yourself.

"I know marketing matters, but I just can't deal with it during tax season." Once tax season starts, you're buried in client work and relying on referrals. Time is not something you have an excess of. So, tax season marketing falls to the bottom of the priority list. But this is actually when your marketing matters MOST. Potential new clients are actively searching Google for help and choosing competitors who look more credible online. In this episode, TaxProMarketer CEO Christian Jones and Sales Manager Noah Jenks break down one of the most overlooked (yet controllable) tax season marketing levers: Google reviews. They explain why reviews directly impact rankings and lead volume. Listen in to find out how a simple, repeatable Google Review strategy can help you attract higher-quality clients during tax season without adding more chaos to your plate.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Want a steady stream of five-star reviews, real referrals, and a calendar that fills itself without paid ads? We unpack a simple, ethical system that trades meaningful value for timely action, guiding clients to leave reviews while they're already engaged and excited. You'll hear how to personalize outreach, make the incentive irresistible, and remove friction so testimonials flow consistently—organically boosting your Google and Yelp rankings for “personal trainer near me.”We walk through the full lifecycle: crafting offers that clients actually want, scheduling comp sessions tied to reviews, and turning that moment into a clear referral ask that doesn't feel pushy. Then we layer in a light-touch nurture engine—weekly emails with nutrition tips, fiber and protein guidance, and real-world meal ideas—because most buyers convert after multiple touchpoints. The theme is simple: action beats perfection. Test now, get feedback, improve your scripts, and hit January with systems that already work.Programming gets equal time. If your gym runs 45-minute blocks, we show how to adapt the CCA framework without crushing your main lift. Learn to pair core patterns with complementary moves, protect rest for performance, and finish with a short, client-driven “fun” block that scratches the itch for sweat and novelty without sabotaging progress. We explain the psychology behind finishers, how to educate clients on rest and RPE, and how to stay creative inside real-world constraints so results stay front and center.Along the way, we invite you to tap into our community and hands-on seminars where we sharpen assessments, soft tissue work, programming, sales, and confidence.

Special Guest Mary Cravets To help focus their efforts, complete the quiz on my size at https://simplygetclients.com. This offers serious direction and tools, rather than just being a fluffy time-waster. Welcome to another episode of the Podcast Profits Unleashed! Today, I had the absolute pleasure of speaking with Mary Cravets, an expert who helps busy entrepreneurs and service-based professionals attract more clients and increase their income by 50% or more—without working nights and weekends. If you've ever felt like your business requires endless hustle, this episode is a must-listen. Mary shared her personal story of hitting extreme adrenal exhaustion just two years into her business, with only four hours of energy per week to work while providing half of her household income. From that place of desperation, she discovered the transformative question: “What's working?” By focusing only on what produced real results, she dropped 80% of the frantic marketing efforts and built a system that grew her business effortlessly. We dive deep into her practical strategies for simplifying client generation, including: identifying your top clients, tracking which marketing strategies actually bring results, and creating predictable referral systems. Mary emphasizes specificity—knowing exactly who your clients are, how to reach them, and what lead generation activities to prioritize. Some of the biggest takeaways I had from this episode: ✨ I don't need to do everything—only what works. ✨ Focusing on measurable results instead of “ego metrics” like likes or views creates real business growth. ✨ Referrals can be predictable when you build strategic “centers of influence” relationships. ✨ Having processes and systems in place allows me to detach from the outcome and keep my business running even during life's curveballs. ✨ A well-designed client generation system saves time, reduces stress, and increases income while preserving the freedom I want. Mary also shares a free introductory class she offers on building a client generation system—perfect for anyone ready to cut through the noise, stop spinning their wheels, and finally see real results. If you're ready to stop working harder and start working smarter, this episode is packed with actionable strategies to get more clients and grow your business without sacrificing your time or energy.
