“I want you to think of referrals as a bonus - a gift from the Universe. They’re a gift from people who are around you.”
Season 18 is all about answering your questions. I really enjoyed this one:
“My frustration is growing referrals without hounding my clients. I ask annually or immediately after we hit a success milestone. I still need more referrals. Surprisingly, they do not provide many. I send them a list of their connections on LinkedIn to generate initial ideas, but they seldom turn out to be solid referrals. I also receive a lot of referrals to people who cannot pay. They typically are unemployed or leaving their current job and cannot pay out of pocket. It is frustrating.”
That IS super frustrating. How do you get more referrals without hounding clients? My answer today includes some … tough love.

Mentioned in this episode:
I have a confession to make. I hate shopping, but I love the way I feel in beautiful clothes. I love to have new looks, and I really don't want to be seen in the same outfits over and over, but I also don't want to clog landfills with more fast fashion. Because I despise shopping, I've been known to buy too quickly and end up with a closet full of things I don't wear. But everything changed for me when I discovered Armoire. I was heading to a business event in Hawaii and I wanted to look fantastic. I got a gorgeous dress and the cutest jumpsuit. Armir is like sharing a closet with your girlfriends who just happened to have fabulous taste. Once a month, I choose stunning new selections, and a few days later, a package arrives at my door, new clothes, no shopping, different looks, no waste. I've rented over $60,000 of designer clothes for just $119 a month, and I'm constantly asked, "Where did you get that from?" Armoire! Try it for yourself.
