This episode is for all of the new service-based solopreneur baddies! This week, we discuss some things we’ve seen a la social media, Linkedin, and Slack when folks are trying to drum up clientele. And TBH, it’s kind of cringe. Listen up for some tips on how to more authentically generate referrals and how you might find your best networking group in your own backyard. In the episode, we discuss:The #1 most cringe-worthy question in networking groups.The likability factor that’s important to keep in mind… but not for the reasons you think.Normalizing accepting work opportunities that aren’t perfect fits, and early career gigs that we pray never see the light of day (shout out to Craigslist). Exciting News–we’re now on Patreon! We’ve said it before–isolation is the enemy!
