Your revenue is inconsistent and you already know why you haven't made the decision yet. In this episode, I break down the WHO problem most SaaS partners mistake for a skills problem, why serving more industries makes you the best option for no one, and the audit I run on every client's last twelve months of revenue to find their real signal. I share what Jay McBain's data shows about the fastest-growing tech partners right now, and the three steps to rebuild your business around one industry and one problem type.

Referrals: When people talk about you behind your back in a good way Authority is not about self-recognition. True authority happens when others talk about you behind closed doors, sending opportunities in your direction before you ever have to ask. It's the power of referrals. In this episode of Influential Voices of Authority, Erik K. Johnson connects with Michael Roderick, CEO of Small Pond Enterprises, on the crucial secret to getting quality referrals and turning your message into your greatest asset.   Important Links: The ReferabilityRater: https://myreferabilityrater.com Connect with Michael Roderick on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-roderick-1161571/ Michael's website: https://www.smallpondenterprises.com/ Apply for a podcast audit and coaching with Erik: https://podcasttalentcoach.com/coaching   Subscribe to the podcast: Apple Podcasts: http://www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/apple Spotify: http://www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/spotify Website: http://www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/podcasts   Episode Segments: 00:00 Establishing Authority Through Borrowed Trust 01:13 Why Real Authority is Referral Based 02:39 How "Borrowed Authority" Attracts Premium Clients 05:45 The Power of Being a Category of One 07:10 Challenging the Dominant Narrative 14:45 From English Teacher to Broadway Producer 19:01 Leveraging Relationships and Placement 21:37 The AIM Principles of Referability 24:41 Language and Memory: The Sticky Factor 27:00 Storytelling That Gets Spread 32:16 The Triple Threat: Scientist, Celebrity, Magician 35:45 Aspirational Market vs. Excellence Market 40:12 Designing Offers for the Success Market 44:23 Memorable Networking in New York 47:03 Your Secret Sauce to Influence 49:51 Creating RAD: Relationship Adventure Day 54:40 Reverse Engineering to Build Authority 56:40 Knowing When You're Ready to Get Referred 58:43 The ReferabilityRater Tool 01:00:05 Black Box Mastermind for Thought Leaders 01:02:04 Turn Your Podcast into an Authority Engine   Key Takeaways: Your Authority Exists in the Words of Others - Erik K. Johnson reveals that true authority is not self-appointed. It belongs to those who are talked about, recommended, and sought out by others in their absence. Borrowed Trust Changes Everything - By appearing on others' stages and earning their endorsement, you tap into borrowed trust, attracting leads, premium clients, and high-value opportunities. Packaging Your Message for Maximum Spread - Michael Roderick highlights the AIM model: Accessibility, Influence, and Memory. Make your message simple, give people something to talk about, and make your ideas easy to remember and repeat. Triple Threat Framework for Experts - Understand your natural order as Scientist, Celebrity, or Magician—and build your positioning and market approach to fit your unique strengths instead of copying cookie-cutter formulas. Speak to the Excellence Market, Not Just Aspirational Buyers - Unlock real business growth by targeting those solving success problems, not just survival problems. Your offer, message, and authority must signal value to the buyers who are searching for guidance, not a savior. The Power of Signature Experiences - Signature moves and memorable experiences—from exclusive shows to adventure-based networking—get your audience talking about you. Remarkable brands create remarkable stories. Are You Ready to Be Referred? - People refer those whose message is clear, memorable, and worth sharing. When they lean in, ask questions, and use your language, your referability factor is growing.   Episode Highlights: How borrowed credibility instantly changes sales conversations Translating your unique story and skills into an asset the right market wants Making your frameworks, acronyms, and names "sticky" for word-of-mouth spreading Avoiding bland, average content by standing out with a bold, memorable message Why simplicity, emotion, and structure are keys to a referable personal brand Crafting network-building experiences that become legend among your peers   Links and Resources: Test your own authority factor with the ReferabilityRater: A referability rater to see how referable you are and how likely it is people will talk about you when you're not in the room (in a good way). https://myreferabilityrater.com Connect with Michael Roderick: Website: https://www.smallpondenterprises.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-roderick-1161571/ Apply for a podcast audit and coaching with Erik: https://podcasttalentcoach.com/coaching   Next Week: Erik sits down with Louis Swart to break down the art of offer positioning and how to become the undeniable first choice in your niche.

It's not, 'I'll get around to it someday.' It's critical." "Marketing is getting your message out. It's a promotion. It's getting your message out in front of people with the intention of attracting them to you." "If it's not relevant, your message will be ignored." "If you're all prospecting, it's tiring. It's a grind. But as you market your product, service, or brand better, you start to attract people to you, and you catch them later on in the process." "Most people don't have the patience to pay themselves first, make their savings automatic, and let it build over time. That takes a unique, disciplined mindset, but it's extremely powerful when you do." "When you learn how money really works, it sometimes sheds light on what you were or weren't taught when you were younger." "Sometimes we don't have the vision yet. Sometimes we're not clear on it, and creating that vision can be a process." "Everyone in an organization, whether you're in sales, marketing, customer service, a clerk, or whatever, should know who the customer is. We should all know our value, and we should all know how to talk about it." "You get clarity through imperfect action. You start heading in a direction you think is right, make some mistakes along the way, and make adjustments. That's when clarity starts to come." "Just about everybody trying to produce any kind of result, it boils down to confidence. Because if you don't have that, you won't get to the next stage." "You don't want just word of mouth. You want to get connected with people. So use the word that represents that." "The hidden heists are the limiting beliefs and mistaken assumptions we all have around money. There's a lot of money story going on for us." "If you're stuck somewhere, the first place to go isn't necessarily strategy or tactics. It might be to self-reflect, on your business, your product, and your belief in yourself."

Most of us have been told that if we want referrals, we should just ask for them. But, that approach can feel awkward.What if, instead of asking, you could design an experience that makes you naturally referable?That's exactly what my guest, Stacey Brown Randall, teaches. Stacey is the author of her new book The Referable Client Experience, and she's built a proven system to generate consistent referrals — without asking, without paying, and without gimmicky tactics.In this conversation, Stacey and I dig into:Why doing great work isn't enough to generate referralsThe three stages of the client experience — new, active, and alumni — and what to do in each oneThe difference between “work” touch points and “relationship” touch points (and how both matter)How to stay top of mind with clients after your work together is doneWhat speakers can do to create a “referable” experience for event organizersI especially loved Stacey's ideas for how we can nurture relationships in meaningful ways — like acknowledging that quiet voice of buyer's remorse with empathy and care, or sending a “You survived it!” gift to an event organizer after a big conference.These kinds of thoughtful, human touches don't just make you memorable — they make you referable.If you've ever wished more clients and speaking invitations came your way because people can't stop talking about the experience you create, this episode is for you.Tune in and start designing your own referable client (or audience!) experience.About My Guest: Stacey Brown Randall is the multiple award-winning author of Generating Business Referrals Without Asking, author of the forthcoming book, The Referable Client Experience (October 2025) and host of the Roadmap to Referrals podcast.Stacey teaches business owners how to generate referrals naturally...without manipulating, incentivizing or even asking.She has been featured in national publications like Entrepreneur magazine, Investor Business Daily, Forbes, and more.

This week, I did something I hadn't done in a while. I opened up my client spreadsheet and started reading through the names of people I've worked with over the years—clients I loved serving. Some I hadn't talked to in months, others in years. I'll be honest… I hesitated. My brain kicked in with noise: “What if they think it's weird I'm reaching out?” “What if they don't even remember me?” I had to remind myself—and I want you to hear today: The value you delivered doesn't expire just because time has passed. If you helped someone win before, you can help them again. So I sent a few emails. Nothing complicated. Just honest, kind, and direct. No fancy funnel. No launch. Just a real conversation with a real human. So many business owners I work with—have deep expertise, long client lists, and a wealth of goodwill built up in their business. But you're sitting on it like it's buried treasure. Meanwhile, you're trying to post 4 times a day on Instagram, praying the algorithm throws you a bone. Let's make this easier. In this week's episode of the Breadwinning Business Women podcast, I'm breaking down how to: ✅ Reconnect with past clients in a way that feels authentic (not awkward) ✅ Ask for referrals without sounding desperate or salesy ✅ Set up a simple system to track relationships and revive revenue consistently If you've ever felt like, “I should follow up with people… I just don't know what to say,” this episode is your permission slip.

Small acts of kindness can have a profound impact, often sparking a ripple effect that changes lives. When we embrace generosity, we create a cycle of giving and receiving that can lead to both personal fulfillment and prosperity. It's easy to overlook how a simple gesture—like giving away a $5 bill—can inspire others and spread goodwill. But what if such small acts could spark a global movement of kindness? Imagine being part of a community where acts of kindness are the norm, not the exception, and where every small gesture contributes to a wave of positive change. In this episode, I speak with Evan Swensen, a book publisher and author, about his new book *"How One Act of Kindness Changed the World."* Inspired by his own experiences with generosity, Evan shares how the $5 bill he gave away became the seed for a powerful message of kindness and reciprocity. "Generosity leads to prosperity. When we give freely, without expectation, we create a world where everyone thrives." - Evan Swensen Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode - The power of small acts of kindness Even the smallest gestures can have significant ripple effects. How can giving away a $5 bill inspire a movement and change the world? - The philosophy of generosity and prosperity Living generously doesn't just benefit others; it enriches your own life. What does it mean to live by the principle that generosity leads to prosperity, as outlined in Proverbs 11:25? - How to participate in the $5 Movement The $5 Movement encourages people to perform simple acts of kindness on September 9 and share their stories. How can joining this movement help you connect with others and spread positivity in your community? Guest Bio: Evan Swensen, book publisher and author, founded Author Masterminds and Readers and Writers Book Club. Throughout his publishing career, Evan and his wife, Lois, have brought the works of more than 1,000 authors to life, sharing diverse stories with readers worldwide. As the founder of the Readers and Writers Book Club, Evan fosters a vibrant community for literature enthusiasts, helping both established and emerging writers find their voices and audiences.
