How to Get the Best Client Testimonials

How many times have you asked for client testimonials, to which they excitedly replied—“of course!”—only for weeks to go by without a testimonial appearing in your inbox? This scenario has occurred for me more times than I can count, whether I’m asking for a client testimonial or I’ve been asked to write one for someone else. It’s not that our clients don’t want to share the magic of our work with the world, nor are they unappreciative of our product or service. It’s quite the opposite.

How to Use the Know Like Trust Factor to Succeed in Business

Business, Relationships

If you’re a business owner, I want you to think back to the first sale you ever made. I’m willing to bet that the sale was to a friend or family member, someone you built a solid relationship with, or someone who received a high recommendation for your services or product.

Confessions & Boundaries: What Are You Willing to Receive?

Uncategorized

I have a confession to make. Up until this point, I’ve struggled with certain boundaries in my business—boundaries specifically related to honoring my value as a transformational Coach. Tell me if you struggle with this too, because I am totally guilty of offering mega-discounts on my services. Why?
