In this episode, we dive into a crucial part of creative growth: figuring out what kind of work actually fulfils you—so you can start choosing clients that are the right fit, not just any fit.We also respond to a social post who claims the people in the creative industry have been led into thinking it's a sustainable career, and advised others to “keep your day job” and do creative work on the side. We disagree, and break down why advice like this can be harmful to those trying to make full-time creative career work.Whether you're just starting out or trying to refine the kind of work you want to do, this one's all about alignment, perspective, and pushing back against limiting beliefs.

In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview T. Brad Kielinski, Founder of IT Pros.Brad shared his journey from growing up in Plymouth Meeting near Germantown Academy to becoming a successful tech recruiter in Philadelphia. Inspired by witnessing his uncle and aunt's homegrown business grow to 400 employees and his father's inventive spirit, Brad gravitated towards entrepreneurship early on. His career path began with internships in IT and eventually led him to work for various tech recruiting agencies before launching IT Pros in 2011. His approach to building the business included founding a LinkedIn community in 2009 that connected tech professionals throughout the Philadelphia region, focusing on networking and knowledge-sharing without sales pressure. Brad explained that IT Pros' early focus was on venture-backed startups and smaller, less-known companies within the Delaware Valley region. Over time, the company deliberately avoided working with large corporations with skewed terms and instead concentrated on agile, fast-moving businesses and manufacturing companies modernizing their environments. His method of fostering organic growth through community-building and strategically choosing clients has been key to IT Pros' sustained success.Witness Brad Kielinski's approach to thriving in the tech industry by choosing the right clients and building a strong community on this episode of The First Customer!

Wondering if you're working with the right people? In this episode of The Financial Coaches Podcast, the hosts talk about how it is vitally important to make sure that you're onboarding the RIGHT clients FOR YOU.

Apple Podcasts |Spotify |TranscriptMore Resources: 12 Theme Ideas Freebie | Flodesk DiscountHave you ever wondered why your Minis aren't booking? If you've struggled with booking out your sessions or they aren't booking the way you expected them to then you're in the right place! Trust me, we've all been there. The good news? Mini Sessions work, and with a few strategic tweaks, you can turn things around. In this episode, we're diving into the three biggest reasons your minis aren't booking: your timing or theme isn't resonating, your marketing strategy is incomplete, or your messaging isn't connecting with your ideal clients. Stick with me, and let's troubleshoot your Minis so you can start booking out with confidence!Here's What We'll Cover:Theme or timing holding you back? (2:14)Social strategy (7:01)Is your messaging connecting with clients? (12:03)Recap as a whole (14:27)Is Your Mini Session Theme or Timing Holding You Back?One of the biggest reasons Mini Sessions don't book is that the theme or timing isn't resonating with your ideal clients. Just because a theme was popular last year doesn't mean it will work again this year! Trends shift and client preferences change. Some themes become overdone, while others may not be in demand at all. Additionally, the dates you choose can make or break your success. If your minis fall too close to holidays, school breaks, or major local events... families might already have plans. So, do your research! Look at current trends, ask past clients what themes they're excited about, and test new ideas that fit what families want right now. When you align your Minis with what your audience is actually looking for, you'll see more interest and faster bookings.Are You Relying on One Post to Fill Your Mini Sessions?Posting once and hoping for bookings isn't enough! Only 4% of your followers see what you post, so you need to reach beyond your audience to get more bookings. A strong marketing strategy includes consistent social media posts, reels, and stories, plus email marketing to remind past clients. Local outreach, like sharing in Facebook groups or partnering with businesses, also helps spread the word. Creating urgency with limited spots or early bird discounts can drive faster bookings. Instead of relying on one post, map out a marketing plan across multiple touch points over several weeks for the best results!Is Your Messaging Connecting With the Right Clients?If your mini-sessions aren't booking, your messaging may not be resonating. Clients don't just want a “Mini-Session”... they want an easy, stress-free way to capture beautiful family photos! Focus on the emotional appeal rather than just the photography itself. You should clearly communicate when, where, how much, and what's included to eliminate any...

Ever wonder why some clients feel like a dream while others make you question everything?  Spoiler: It's not just bad luck—it might be misaligned values. If your core values are buried on your website, you risk attracting the wrong clients who ignore boundaries and drain your energy.  But when your values are front and center, they act as a filter for you.  In this episode, we're talking about how to put your values to work so you land the right clients and lose the wrong ones—before they drain you dry. Topics discussed in this episode include: Why your business needs to lead with values. How core values act as a built-in filter. Tips for defining your business values.  Key questions to ask yourself when defining values. How to make your values clear to everyone. Why your values always need to come first.  For detailed show notes and links to everything in this episode, please visit bsfreebusiness.com.

Startups in multifamily, listen up! Landing a “big fish” sounds great, but is it really the best strategy?Inspired by Matt Knight's Vertical newsletter, today's insight is about targeting the Goldilocks Zone—companies that are big enough to have a tech budget but small enough to say yes or no quickly.Too often, startups waste time, money, and energy chasing massive property management firms, only to get lost in bureaucracy or internal tech teams that don't need outside solutions. Instead, go after the clients that can move fast and give you clear, actionable feedback.Where's your focus? Chasing whales or reeling in smart wins?

Want to create a real estate brand that actually gets noticed? In this powerful session, top real estate leaders Greg Erlanger (leader of Ohio's #1 real estate team) and Jeff Glover break down the secrets to branding success. What You'll Learn:

Are you struggling to attract enough of the right coaching clients? You're not alone. One of the biggest frustrations I hear from coaches is that they're either not getting enough clients at all—or they're attracting people who aren't the right fit. They either can't afford their coaching or just don't align with the work they want to do. In today's episode, I'm coming in hot with some tough love about the real reason this is happening. Spoiler: It's all about niching—and yes, you absolutely DO need to niche! Please don't be tempted to listen to the people who are just telling you what you want to hear! I'll be breaking down why trying to be everything to everyone makes you invisible, how defining your coaching niche actually frees you rather than restricts you, and why this is the single biggest shift that will help you start attracting dream clients who truly value your work.

Send us a textWhat if the secret to attracting your ideal coaching clients was simply being yourself? This episode promises to reveal how authenticity, mindset, and accountability are your greatest allies in drawing clients who truly resonate with your story, values, and goals. We explore practical tactics for engaging with potential clients and how reflecting on these interactions can help you identify the problems you're most passionate about solving. By sharing your personal experiences and solutions on social media, you'll learn how to naturally connect with an audience facing similar challenges, all while evolving your content to match your growing interests and expertise.Join us as we highlight the importance of finding your true community in both personal and professional growth. Surrounding yourself with individuals who share your aspirations can make learning and progress feel second nature. Hear personal stories that underscore the power of being in the right environment, and discover the transformative impact of communities like a free book club for coaches. It's not just about attracting clients; it's about nurturing your own journey with support and shared goals, ensuring every piece clicks into place for your ultimate success.

A few weeks ago I did an episode about how wedding business owners are being sold a single version of luxury and told it's the only version available. It struck a chord with many of my clients and others who reached out, because I busted this myth that if you want to find success you have to do it a certain way - usually represented the way the people on top have done it themselves.  I think that road to success is well-paved and well-travelled by people who want the same kind of success. Million-dollar budgets, Lake Como and the Amalfi Coast every weekend, clients who all look like models.  But I've talked with thousands of wedding professionals who have a different version of what success can look like, of what it means to build a business they're proud of, one that gets them what they want in life. And their ideal clients look different too. Just like there's more than one version of success, and more than one version of luxury, there's also more than one version of an ideal client. Sure, we all want couples who pay higher prices - but what else should we look for? And how do we speak to them in our marketing and in our sales process? Today I bring in Katy, my wife and business partner - and ideal client expert - to talk shop about ICAs.

This is all about saving you time and energy and making room for clients that are the right fit. [01:16] I'm going to share strategies and close with a couple of scripts to gracefully decline clients that are the wrong fit. [01:49] Set clear expectations through your messaging in all of your media from your sales page to social. Identify who the offer is for. [02:26] Have a section that explains who this program is for. Give a menu.  [03:59] Prequalify your prospects with some type of screening process.  [04:29] Things to look at when you're not closing 75% of your consultation calls. How can I minimize calls that are the wrong fit? Am I closing those who are the right fit? [05:21] You could have a short questionnaire prescreening before a prospective client books a call. Keep it under five minutes.  [06:15] Talk about pricing. Give a range of prices. What are you looking to invest? [09:10] Use budget as a natural filter. This can be an opportunity to bless and release. [10:14] Based on what you've shared and what's important to you and specifically what you're looking to accomplish, I get a sense that what I offer isn't the right nextstep for you. Respectfully bring the conversation to a close. [11:26] Think about being transparent with your pricing. [12:56] Sales isn't about you, it's about the prospect. [13:40] Nikki shares a story of a client who didn't want to put her prices on her website. Having to ask about pricing can alienate a client. [16:43] Benefits of repelling the wrong clients. It reduces tire kickers. Sometimes you have to clear the field so you're not overloaded. [18:13] After reviewing the notes from our call and thinking about what you're wanting to accomplish, I don't feel like what I offer is the right nextstep for you. So I'm going to respectfully decline offering a proposal to avoid wasting your time.   For more actionable sales tips, download the FREE Closing The Sale Ebook.   Find Nikki: Nikki Rausch nikki@yoursalesmaven.com Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn | Instagram Sales Maven Society Work With Nikki Discussion To download free Resources from Nikki: www.yoursalesmaven.com/maven    Resources:  Episode 247: How to Handle Tire Kickers: Turn Indecisive Prospects into Committed Clients

This podcast episode emphasizes the importance of working with coachable clients who have the right intentions, rather than those seeking quick fixes or immediate wins. Speaker A discusses the red flags to watch for, such as clients who ask too many questions or express hesitations about pricing, indicating they may not be ready for transformation. The conversation encourages listeners to trust their instincts when assessing potential clients and to recognize that not every interaction needs to be pushed through objections. Emphasizing self-worth, Speaker A reminds us that rejection or lack of response is not a reflection of our abilities but rather a part of the journey of growth. By maintaining momentum and staying focused, we can attract the right clients and continue evolving in our professional paths.The podcast delves into the critical importance of working with coachable clients and the detrimental effects of engaging with those who lack the right intentions. Speaker A emphasizes that one of the major red flags in potential clients is their pursuit of quick fixes rather than a commitment to genuine transformation. This focus on immediate results often indicates a lack of readiness for deeper work, which can lead to frustration for both the coach and the client. The discussion highlights the importance of discernment in client selection, urging listeners to trust their instincts when feeling uncertain about a potential collaboration. Speaker A shares personal experiences of having to turn away clients who seemed difficult or unprepared, reinforcing the idea that not every client is a good fit and that it's crucial to protect one's energy and focus on those who truly align with the desired outcomes.Further expanding on the theme of alignment, the speaker discusses the significance of mutual trust and understanding in the coaching relationship. When both parties recognize that they are in a partnership aimed at growth and transformation, the process becomes smoother and more effective. The speaker encourages listeners to let go of the need to convince others to work with them, as this often leads to unnecessary struggles and misalignment. Instead, the focus should be on attracting the right clients who resonate with the coach's offerings, which in turn leads to a more fulfilling and productive coaching experience. The episode concludes with a powerful reminder that success is not about forcing outcomes but allowing the right opportunities to unfold naturally, aligning with a broader understanding of personal and professional evolution.Takeaways: It's essential to work only with coachable clients who have the right intentions. Avoid clients seeking quick wins; focus on those committed to real transformation. Trust your instincts during initial meetings to gauge if the client is a good fit. If you must convince someone to work with you, they likely aren't the right client. Don't dwell on objections; instead, view them as signs that the fit isn't right. Remember that everything happens for a reason, and learn from every interaction you have.

Are you leading with value or just price?  Welcome to the Gym Marketing Made Simple podcast, your go-to resource for exploring the strategies that boutique fitness gyms need to thrive. Today, we're diving into an often-overlooked approach in gym marketing: showcasing the real value behind what you offer. Too often, gyms reveal prices early on without first helping potential clients see the unique benefits and support they'll receive—things like nutrition counseling, personalized guidance, and success-oriented programs.  This discussion underscores the importance of helping potential clients understand that they're not just joining a gym but gaining a path toward their goals. The episode also touches on a critical strategy for attracting and retaining clients over time: leveraging genuine testimonials and success stories. When people see real-world results and understand how your gym can meet their personal needs, they're more likely to commit. Rather than offering generic content or free guides, your social media and marketing should reflect your gym's impact, setting you apart from competitors focused on short-term discounts. 00:00 Intro 00:10 Pricing Strategy in Gym Marketing 01:58 The Importance of Value Over Price 02:09 Building Trust and Authority 09:20 Leading with Value in Organic Posts 09:34 Conveying Value Through Testimonials and Achievements Tune in to learn how focusing on value, showcasing results, and nurturing every lead can position your gym for long-term growth.

In this episode of the Grow Show, featuring Amanda Dinkelman from Archford Capital, the hosts dive deep into the importance of learning to say no as part of their "50 for 50" segment. Scott Scully emphasizes that while it can be incredibly difficult, especially in challenging economic times, saying no to the wrong clients or opportunities is essential for the long-term health and focus of the business. The group discusses the consequences of taking on misaligned clients, including the strain it places on the team, the distraction from serving the right-fit customers, and the eventual pain of having to offboard those clients. They agree that it takes courage to fire clients that are not a good match, but it's a necessary step to ensure the business can thrive. The hosts share their own experiences and struggles with this issue, acknowledging that it's an ongoing challenge, but one that must be addressed to maintain a healthy, high-performing organization.

Desire for freedom, flexibility, and work-life balance fueled this movement. In 2022, 31% of employees who resigned started their own businesses were women. This shift highlighted the potential for more money, meaning, and impact through entrepreneurial ventures.     Shifts in Corporate Landscape and DEI   Initial surge in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) roles post-2020. Many DEI efforts led by women faced challenges and often went unrewarded. Women sought entrepreneurship for a sense of recognition and better work conditions. Report from the World Economic Forum supports burnout as a significant factor.     The Great Boomerang and Reality Check     Many women underestimated the effort it takes to replace a six-figure salary through entrepreneurship. Observations suggest a shakeout in the coaching and consulting space by 2024-2025. Strong business foundation and deliberate planning are keys to success. Clients are finding success with six-figure contracts as fractional leaders and launching group programs.   Key Strategies for Sustainable Growth    Importance of a recurring sales framework with a steady stream of qualified leads. The significance of unique, amplified messaging to attract prospects and retain clients. Leveraging in-person and online events to maintain visibility and engagement.
