Join host Julie Riga as she sits down with Caterina Rando, mentor extraordinary for women in business, to uncover the fastest path from speaking to clients. Discover why speaking beats social media for service-based entrepreneurs, learn Caterina's "sales fountain" approach that keeps clients coming back, and find out how she generates multiple five-figure sales from a single retreat.
In this episode, you'll learn the three types of clients (Insta-clients, slow cookers, and super slow cookers), why "at the thing you always offer the next thing," and how to leave every audience more uplifted than when they arrived. Caterina shares her proven strategies for building profitable retreat experiences, the importance of follow-up conversations, and why monthly virtual workshops should be standard operating procedure for every entrepreneur.
Whether you're looking to accelerate client acquisition, build deeper relationships with your audience, or create transformational retreat experiences, this episode delivers actionable insights for women entrepreneurs and service-based business owners ready to turn their speaking into a client-generation machine.
