  • Ep 160: How A Low-Risk Offer Can Cut Your Sales Cycle In Half
    Oct 26 2025

    Send us a text

    Click Here to join the Gateway Offer Mission. << Expires October 30, 2025.

    What if your next client didn’t need convincing, just clarity? We walk through the gateway offer model that gets you paid to diagnose, builds trust across the buying committee, and turns the final decision into a simple next step. Instead of free discovery calls and bloated proposals, you’ll learn how to package interviews, a focused roadmap, and a short review session into a two-week container that proves value fast and removes risk for everyone.

    We start by breaking down the hidden cost of the traditional sales process: thin discovery, speculative proposals, and a six to eight-week on-ramp where you figure things out on the client’s dime. Then we map the three-part gateway offer: stakeholder interviews that surface goals and constraints, a concise strategy or audit that prioritizes quick wins, and a review call designed for clarity, not pressure. You’ll hear how sending the plan 24 hours ahead sparks better questions, why using stakeholder quotes in your recommendations creates instant alignment, and how to draw out silent objections so you leave with consensus instead of confusion.

    We also dig into pricing and positioning. A sub-$1,000 “why not” offer is easy to approve and creates momentum without setting off procurement alarms. You’ll learn how to present scope without scope creep, outline a 90-day plan that feels actionable, and introduce execution options that make yes the obvious next move. Concerned they’ll shop your strategy? We explain why it rarely happens when you co-create with stakeholders and demonstrate value in the room. Most buyers either hand you the keys or implement internally—both outcomes strengthen your pipeline and reputation.

    Ready to cut your sales cycle and convert with confidence? Join the Gateway Offer mission to build your own irresistible offer, complete with live support, an AI assistant, and weekly micro tasks that take you from idea to closed deal. Subscribe, share this with a friend who hates selling, and tell us: what quick win would your buyers pay for tomorrow?

  • Ep 158: From Pop-Up Offers to Productized Tiers: A Solo Consultant’s Guide to Scale with Less Stress
    Oct 12 2025

    Send us a text

    We answer seven rapid‑fire questions solo consultants ask most: how to run cold outreach without being spammy, what to delegate first, how to productize pricing, how to start biz dev without selling, when to hire, how to test ideas fast, and how to keep clients focused. We share scripts, signals, and simple systems to help you protect your time, grow profit, and scale with less stress.

    • LinkedIn cold outreach using a simple connection note and warming signals
    • Delegation via an Eisenhower‑style approach to offload low‑skill, high‑drag tasks
    • Productized offers with three tiers and a middle anchor focused on outcomes
    • Business development through niche communities and LinkedIn relationship building
    • Gateway offers with “hell yes” pricing to reduce friction and convert faster
    • When to hire operational and delivery support based on capacity pain
    • Validating ideas with a wait list and seven‑day pop‑up offers
    • Scope control using documented priorities, milestones and stakeholder sign‑off

  • Ep 156: Cold Outreach Is Dead: Why Relationship-Building Matters on LinkedIn
    Sep 28 2025

    Send us a text

    Buy the LinkedIn Prospecting Course


    In this episode, I share the most common mistake B2B businesses make with LinkedIn prospecting: skipping the warming-up period before pitching offers. I provide a clip from my recent LinkedIn prospecting workshop that details my three-step approach to deepening connections and converting leads without feeling salesy.

    • Most businesses fail by sending cold outreach without building relationships first
    • The effective three-step LinkedIn DM approach: connection DM, problem exploration, and soft offer
    • Problem exploration involves asking about specific challenges and relating to your experience
    • The soft offer extends an invitation to connect further to discuss their challenges
    • Consistency is key—just 15 minutes daily on LinkedIn can transform your prospecting results
    • Warm leads by commenting on content before moving to DM conversations
    • Have your "ask" and "give" prepared before connection calls to create natural follow-up opportunities

    Want the full LinkedIn prospecting workshop with templates and scripts? Head to the show notes page to purchase the complete course. Follow me on LinkedIn (Sarah Noel Block) with any questions!

  • Ep 154: Revive Your Referrals: LinkedIn Networking for B2B Service Businesses
    Sep 14 2025

    Send us a text

    LinkedIn Prospecting Workshop - September 22 @ 12pm CST

    Apply for the Tiny Marketing Club

    LinkedIn | How I hit multi-six figures in year one.


    Ever wonder why those steady referrals that built your business suddenly dried up? In this episode, I unpack the exact strategy to reignite your referral engine without begging, pestering, or resorting to desperate tactics.

    After my own journey from relying on past employer referrals to building a sustainable pipeline, I've mapped the patterns that repeatedly work for B2B service businesses. The secret isn't becoming a social media superstar—it's becoming remembered, trusted, and recommended within specific circles where your expertise matters most.

    Discover the "niche networker" approach that blends strategic community participation with intentional LinkedIn relationship-building. Rather than passively posting content hoping someone notices, learn how to curate your feed with direct prospects, referral partners, and industry peers who can naturally connect you to opportunities. I share how one client went from zero pipeline (and three months away from missing mortgage payments) to a wait list in just six months using these exact methods.

    The process hinges on three key components: finding the right niche communities where your dream clients already gather, crafting a gateway offer that gives people an easy way to recommend you, and mastering the "magic DM" approach that turns LinkedIn connections into meaningful relationships without being sleazy or salesy.

    Want to put this into practice? Join my LinkedIn Prospecting Workshop where I'll share the templates, systems and exact approach that generated $94,000 in just 30 days—no paid ads, no spam, no cold calling. Check the show notes for details and keep marketing small but making it big!
