How to Create a High-Touch Signature Service

We recently told the complete truth about the elusive “passive income” trend and how it’s a total sham. We also told you what you should do instead, and that’s create a High-Touch Signature Service.™


In a nutshell, a High-Touch Signature Service is what will allow you to go from working with 12 clients per month (and barely breaking even) to 4 clients per month (and making much more than before). It’s what will save your sanity, capacity, time, and pockets in the long run because you’re able to work less while making more!

In this post, we’re going to break down the 4 key phases to creating a High-Touch Signature Service, so you can be well on your way to putting your life first in your business while surpassing your financial goals.

How to Host Co-working Sessions to Boost Productivity in Your Business

When you have a team that works from home or any sort of virtual community space, it can be a little more difficult to make sure everyone is being productive. One way we’ve been able to set accountability and give that much needed support to each other is by holding co-working sessions.

Co-working sessions are when you, a team member, or even your whole team hop on a group video chat (we prefer Zoom) to literally work together. Back when Boss Project was just Abagail and Emylee, we’d often hop on Zoom or Google Hangouts to complete tasks together. We’d hang out for hours on end, sometimes a whole working day just to hold each other accountable.

Now, we want to share how we host efficient co-working sessions to boost productivity in our business!

How to Set Goals and Achieve Them in 2022

One of our favorite activities to do in our business is goal setting. We love planning where we want our business to be in the coming months, quarters, or years. There’s just something so refreshing and exciting about envisioning hitting those milestones!

However, we don’t set goals by just making up a financial number that we’d like to see our business hit. We really dig into our numbers and use our lifestyle/business wants and needs in tandem with evaluating our current offerings to give us a number that’s realistically reachable.

Keep reading if you want to learn our process of goal setting, so you can actually achieve them in 2022!

After being surrounded by and listening to the roadblocks and frustrations of countless service providers, there’s a single trend we see happening all too often-- clients are dropping off before they’ve booked.

We’ve also seen a trend in the 2 main reasons why this keeps happening to so many service providers. Luckily, we have a foolproof strategy to bypass these obstacles, so you can sign clients faster. Keep reading as we break down what those two reasons are and how to beat them!

The Hard Reality of Pivoting From Services to Courses or Digital Products

Raise your hand if you’ve been personally victimized by the idea that the only way to really grow your service-based business the way you want to is by pivoting to courses or digital products. Don’t worry, we’ll wait.

It’s a resounding message in the online business world, and it’s an idea that gets circulated through so many service-providers’ brains a hundred times or more. They fall in love with those sexy phrases associated with pivoting to courses, like “passive income”, “work less while making more”, “make money while you sleep”, etc.

How to Double Your Income While Working 20 Hours a Week (or Less)

You’re at the point where you feel like you’re really killing it in your business. Your marketing efforts seem to be paying off because there’s rarely a shortage of clients. If anything, you have too many clients, too many tasks filling up your calendar, and too many empty cups of coffee sitting at your desk.

This isn’t the life for you, babe. This isn’t where you imagined your business would be when you first started with a big dream and the energy to make it happen. (Where the heck did that energy go?!)


Having all these clients means you should be hitting those big-figure months consistently, right? So... why does it feel like you’re back at a full-time corporate job working 40 hours per week with almost no considerable income to show for it?

We want to let you in on a little secret. You can double your income while working only 20 hours a week or even less. Here’s how.

How to Use Testimonials to Attract Your Dream Clients

Client testimonials are the proof in the pudding to potential clients about how amazing you are. You need to be able to back up your claims of being able to achieve XYZ results for your clients and the wonderful experience you provide. Not only do they serve as a diverse marketing asset that you can repurpose in numerous ways, but they’re also like hanging those sticky fly traps.

The fact of the matter is that dreamy clients know other dreamy clients. As soon as you land who you consider a dream client, you have to use that person and their testimonial for every referral or potential client that you can because you’ll get even more like-minded clients from them.

So in what ways can you use testimonials to signal more dream clients that they should work with you?
