In this episode, I'm joined by my client Tina Ruark-Baker, founder of TRB Creative, where she helps entrepreneurs and business owners grow through LinkedIn strategy, sales coaching, and consulting.

Tina had been in HoneyBook for about 18 months before we worked together. She wasn't starting from scratch, she had things set up, but nothing was connected.

She was managing multiple offers manually, and a lot of the follow-up work was happening at night and on weekends just to keep things from falling through the cracks.

We recently wrapped her HoneyBook CRM build and in this episode she's sharing what the experience was actually like; the process, what shifted, and some of the early wins she's already seeing just two months in.

Including:

• How an automated follow-up email closed two new clients
• How she went from spending her evenings on admin to being able to go out to dinner with her husband
• How she took what she learned and built her own HoneyBook lead form as a landing page and used it to book more clients into a group coaching program.

She also shares a bit about RevLab, the revenue-driven community she's currently building for entrepreneurs who want to grow their businesses and stay connected after coaching.

If you've been in HoneyBook for a while and feel like things are kind of working but not really, this episode is worth a listen.

If you've been feeling like summer is just going to be slow. I want to challenge that thinking a little bit.

In this episode, I'm talking about one simple strategy that you can use to bring in revenue during the summer (or any slow season in your business) without having to create a single new piece of content, run ads, or be glued to social media. The strategy is already sitting right there inside your business, you just have to be willing to use it.

I'm breaking down two specific groups of people you already have access to right now, and exactly how to approach them so the conversation feels natural and not awkward. Because the money is already in your business.

In this episode I'm covering:

• Why slow summers are often something we create for ourselves (and how to break that cycle)
• The two groups of people already in your ecosystem that you should be reaching out to right now
• What to say when you reach back out to someone who inquired but never booked
• Why past clients are your warmest leads and how to reopen that conversation
• My nurture framework — the four parts of staying connected with your clients so it never feels out of nowhere
• How referrals from past clients can lead to some of the easiest sales calls you'll ever get on

You've probably been there...you finish a project and realize you did way more than what was actually in your contract. Maybe you told yourself it was just this one time, or that it was the right thing to do for the client.

But somewhere in the back of your mind, you started wondering: am I doing too much? And if I am, why do I keep doing it?

That question had me in a choke hold for a solid year.

In this episode, I'm getting honest about the mental tug-of-war I had with my own offer as a done-for-you systems strategist. I kept going beyond the deliverable limits I had set in my own contracts and I couldn't figure out if that was something to be proud of or something to fix.

Was I overdelivering because I genuinely cared about my clients getting results? Or was I doing it out of fear and the need to keep everyone happy?

The answer changed how I run my business entirely.

I'm sharing the moment that finally gave me clarity, the shift I made to my offer structure, and the one question I now ask myself that every service provider needs to sit with when it comes to doing "extra" work.

In this episode:

• Why going beyond your contract isn't automatically a red flag
• How to get honest with yourself about why you're doing the extra work
• The offer structure shift that took the guilt completely off my plate
• What two virtual assistants on Threads taught me about my own business

If you've ever felt boxed in by the offer you created for yourself, this episode is going to hit home.
