Today’s episode is the second installment in our word-of-mouth and referral marketing podcast series, this time featuring guest Sara McCabe. As a leadership and operations consultant who helps her clients build better leaders, stronger teams, and more efficient businesses, Sara put her own advice to the test by choosing to walk away from her TikTok account she had built up to 17K followers, and focus instead on generating referrals through past and current clients.This strategic decision resulted in a remarkable 40% increase in revenue, referrals now driving 90% of her sales, and an extra $46,550 in her pocket over the course of last year. What may surprise you most is why she doesn’t incentivize referrals from her clients with monetary kickbacks, and what she has found to work better instead.This hot take and more are uncovered in today’s case study on leveraging the power of word of mouth referrals from your existing clients.View the transcript for this episode at: https://otter.ai/u/XSHeOuNlCIFL_hqsbsc-yM7ShwU?utm_source=copy_urlThank you to our sponsors: If you’re a writer or aspiring writer, visit www.burgeondesignandeditorial.com or follow Tiffany on Instagram @burgeondesignandeditorial to learn more about Tiffany’s services!

Enter to win a $200 shopping spree with your small business of choice + submit a question to be featured in our upcoming 200th episode of the podcast: ellenyin.com/200This interview kicks off a 3 episode series centered on growing your revenue through referral and word of mouth marketing. Our first guest is Amanda Walker, host of the Best Damn Coach podcast and a master performance coach, who went from making $623 paychecks as a high school teacher to building a million dollar coaching business helping service-based entrepreneurs 10X their client results so they can grow their impact and profit. Research shows that the #1 way qualified leads make decisions is based on word-of-mouth referrals and customer references, yet many service providers are drowning so much in client delivery that they often miss the opportunity to capture and “sprinkle client results like confetti in everything you do,” as Amanda would say.Her case study examines the 3 specific ways she started leveraging and repurposing client results to attract more than $1 million in coaching contracts, with no audience, website, or even social media to begin with. Amanda also explains the difference between informal and formal testimonials and why shifting toward informal testimonials will help you build greater trust with your audience. Keep listening to hear how you can make the most of this underutilized, low-cost marketing strategy.View the transcript for this episode at: https://otter.ai/u/_ng3vvI3UPmcZYGmOg8kDkPXrzU?utm_source=copy_urlThank you to our sponsors: If you’re a writer or aspiring writer, visit www.burgeondesignandeditorial.com or follow Tiffany on Instagram @burgeondesignandeditorial to learn more about Tiffany’s services!
