• Identifying and emphasizing what makes you unique and how your core genius can make a difference for your clients.
• Understanding and defining who your ideal clients are, their pain points, and how you can solve their problems.
• Techniques like maintaining a folder of testimonials and using affirmations to build and sustain confidence.
• Creating a funnel, attracting clients with lead magnets, and conducting discovery calls to guide clients to decisions without manipulation.
• Importance of structured follow-up and setting client expectations to ensure smooth onboarding and continued engagement.
• Leveraging existing relationships to offer additional services and asking for referrals to grow your client base.
