This 3 hour workshop is about learning how to grow your business inside a referral economy, intentionally and confidently. How to market your business both online and offline. This is not a lecture about marketing, it’s a working session designed to help you clarify how your work spreads in the real world.
What you'll work on:
Mapping how your business actually gets discovered, and where the gaps are
Building a referral system that runs quietly in the background, without awkward asks or constant follow-up
Developing offline marketing habits that compound over time: community presence, professional relationships, and genuine word of mouth
Leaving with a simple, honest plan you can actually maintain
What to expect:
Three hours of focused, interactive work with space to think, share, and get honest about where your current approach isn't quite landing. You'll leave with clarity on your referral strategy and the confidence to act on it.
This is for you if your best clients tend to come through people who know you, and you want more of that, on purpose.
