The #1 Most Ask Question by Independent Consultants is...
"How do I get clients?"
This quandry of client acquistion prevents aspiring consultants from starting while keeping even the most established independent consultant on an emotional and financial rollar coaster.
The answer, however, is simple: Referrals.
Do you find self-promotion awkwardly difficult? Are you spending your precious time and money on cold market strategies like advertising or posting on LinkedIn with little result? Are you tired of giving up big bucks to broker platforms to find engagements for you?
Those approaches are unproductive relative to building and sustaining a simple referral system, like My Referral Stream, that consistently produces referrals from your warm market relationships.
Invest 30-minutes to watch this My Referral Stream introductory video. Learn how to implement My Referral Stream on your own or in consultation with Kevin McCarthy.
#1 Concern: "Yikes, I need to sell myself!"
Self-conscious about
self-promotion?
You're not alone. Most consultants struggle with self-promotion, especially when coming from a corporate role. Couple this with the sales cycle of prospecting, selling, and closing, and there's a whole new set of skills and technology to learn on the fly.
Referrals, however, turn that paradigm on its head.
People in your circles want to see you succeed.
Referrals = Wins
Learn how to graciously and strategically tap into your warm relationships to hold crisply structured, yet casual conversations. Talking with those who already know, like, and trust you isn't sales, it's relationship building with a touch of humility to ask for help. They want you to win, but they need clarity about what a winning introduction looks like for you.
There is a better way!
Imagine what your practice could be like...
MY REFERRAL STREAM
How it works.
Working together, we will develop a customized My Referral Stream 9-step system to generate a steady flow of referrals for your practice. More referrals leads to more conversations with prospects who become clients or sources for additional referrals.
Here's the Design-Build-Act My Referral Stream system.
Design
The Design phase is the cornerstone. Yet most consulants are very muddled about what they do. We clear that up fast.
Build
You need simple tools to gain referrals made with MS Office or Apple built-in apps. No fancy website or sales funnels needed.
Act
As you connect with referrers and their introduced prospects, we're with you to process and improve.
Enough talk, let's get started!
When you raise the trajectory of your practice, you raise the trajectory of your life.
