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.

There are 2 main things that every service provider strives to do:

1. Perform your services amazingly.

2. Give your clients an even more amazing experience working with you.

Unfortunately, number 2 falls short way too often for so many service-based business owners. Even though you’re the bomb at what you do, it isn’t just about your skill set when it comes to working with clients. You could be the #1 service provider in your industry, but if there’s someone else whose services are above par yet they always provide a phenomenal experience for their clients, they’re going to get the most business.

It all comes down to simple science-- humans like to feel good. They like to be happy and have positive experiences. It doesn’t always matter if the work is perfect, it’s how they felt during that process.

We love to go all-in when it comes to providing exceptional, VIP client experiences. And one of those ways is by harnessing the power of a private podcast using Hello Audio.

If that sounds totally wacky, keep reading to find out why it’s actually a great idea, plus some tips and ideas for how you can implement a private podcast in your business!

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.

There are essentially two sides to every service-based business: 1) The actual delivery of the services, and 2) The client experience. Even if you can perform your services exceptionally well and get your clients amazing results, making sure your clients feel valued is equally as crucial. There’s no better time to start than from the very beginning.

By making new clients feel valued, you’re ensuring that they actually enjoyed working with you. They can enjoy the results your work brought them, but you’re less likely to receive a great testimonial, repeat business, or referrals if they didn’t feel like their experience was a positive one.

So to avoid all of that, we’re here to show you three extremely easy and effective ways to make new clients feel valued!

As a service provider, besides delivering your services well, there’s only one other thing that can truly make or break your business. It all ties into how you make your clients feel while working with you, or you may also know it as your client experience.

If you want the technical definition, the client experience is the sum of all interactions a client has with you. It involves every single stage of the client journey, from before they’ve even booked you yet!

The goal is to create a total VIP client experience to make your clients feel like they’re receiving top-notch, exclusive services. And today, we’re going to show you how you can create a VIP client experience and why it’s so important!

As a service provider whose calendar is quickly filling to the brim, it’s imperative to find ways to free up space so that you can feel less stressed and overwhelmed, plus have more time to take care of your clients. The key method of getting back as much time as possible is automation.

Automation, quite simply, is when you put certain tasks or processes on autopilot in your business. (Personally, any and everything that’s able to be automated, we automate it.) These tasks either completely run on their own, or they require extremely little effort from you to make it happen.

When it comes to serving clients, we’re big on making sure you’re providing an exceptional client experience, care, and value through your services. But when you think of the word “services”, what comes to mind? It’s much more than just doing the work that you offer— it also encompasses every aspect of their time with you from onboarding to offboarding.

However, while we think the value of your services is important, we think that saving time where you can is just as important. So, in this blog post, we’ll be breaking down 5 ways to 5x the value of your services without increasing your time!

If there’s one thing that can make or break a service-based business, it’s the experience you provide for your clients. Not only is the client experience crucial to making sure your clients are happy, leave great testimonials, refer you to others, and possibly come back for repeat business, but also perfecting your client experience allows you to sell the heck out of it in your marketing message.

Your client experience doesn’t just span from the first interaction to when you start working with them. It also includes your off boarding process and how you treat them once they’ve finished working with you. But how can you still nurture these relationships even after the project is all said and done? There are three simple yet powerful ways you can do so, and that’s what we’re going to cover in this post!
