Are you overlooking a hidden goldmine in your business?Most businesses focus on their ideal "A clients," but they often overlook the potential of their "C clients" - those who may not be the most exciting to work with but can still bring in significant revenue. This forgotten revenue stream can actually turn out to be your gold mine.In this episode of Influence By Design, Samantha and Tim discuss a valuable insight Tim gained from a recent networking event. It Highlights the importance of not just focusing on your ideal or A clients but also exploring opportunities with C clients through smaller offerings that may not be your core business but can still bring in revenue.Tim shares his own experience of how a simple automation he created for his business caught the attention of a bookkeeper in his networking group, who revealed that she had 40 clients in need of the same solution. This realisation led Tim to consider the untapped potential of marketing of what he describes as "splinter products" to a wider audience.These smaller C client offerings can potentially generate more revenue than your A clients when you market them effectively. They are often easier to scale and have the potential to lead to more referrals as people find it easier to refer friends or colleagues for a specific small need rather than a larger offering.Repackaging some of your expertise or processes into niche products or services can open up new income opportunities that may turn into larger client relationships over time. Listen in to the episode and discover how to utilise your micro Offerings to grow your business.

There are potentially thousands of people who do what you do.  So how do you stand out in a sea of noise?  Having your own frameworks make your content unique and help you stand out in your industry. No matter how busy or noisy your field is, a solid framework can earn you phenomenal reviews and revenue for your business. In this episode of Influence By Design, Samantha speaks with Amanda Walker, certified Master Coach and creator of the Best Damn Coach Podcast, about the power of frameworks.Amanda explains that having a framework elevates you to “purple duck status,” so you stand out from the “yellow ducks” in your industry who all look and sound the same. Frameworks position you as an expert and build confidence in your unique expertise.She shares that frameworks start with clearly identifying your client’s end goal. Then, reflect on your own experiences overcoming challenges to develop signature content for each framework step. The final piece is creating a simple visual representation and infusing the framework throughout your brand and content.Frameworks build trust and make the coaching process feel more practical and achievable for clients. When clients see others who have succeeded with your framework, they gain confidence that they can also achieve success by following the proven process.Ultimately, frameworks boost confidence and clarity for both the coach and the client. Having a clear, unique process to share makes it much easier to articulate your offer and value.For full show notes and links -  https://samanthariley.global/podcast/562Samantha Riley xxGet your free copy of The Human Design Advantage -  https://samanthariley.global/advantage/Join the Coaches, Thought Leaders & Changemakers FB Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/172041823301121I’d love to connect with you - please reach out and say hi: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thesamriley/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/samriley/

Your business' purpose should be to generate enough income to support your desired lifestyle. In this episode of Influence by Design, Samantha talks to Tim about the importance of calculating your actual lifestyle costs and then determining the revenue you need from your business, rather than going around and chasing vague targets.“A million dollars” has become a go-to goal for most entrepreneurs wanting to grow their business by increasing revenue. However, very few successfully hit the $1M mark — in fact, only 4.4%  of businesses do —because most set it as an indeterminate target without making an effort to ground it in their actual lifestyle costs and desired business model. Sam and Tim discuss the value of making tiny, 1% improvements, which can be achieved by simply ticking off 3 tasks every day. If done consistently, these actions compound over time, and you’ll soon find yourself well on your way to hitting your targets (perhaps even exceeding them).Tune in as Samantha and Tim explore the benefits of knowing your desired lifestyle costs, becoming aware of the requisite profit margins for the realization of this goal, and setting tangible, realistic targets. The insights you’ll gain will guide you as you enhance and model your business so it fits and supports the lifestyle you desire. For full show notes and links -  https://samanthariley.global/podcast/543Samantha Riley xxGet your free copy of The Human Design Advantage -  https://samanthariley.global/advantage/Join the Coaches, Thought Leaders & Changemakers FB Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/172041823301121I’d love to connect with you - please reach out and say hi: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thesamriley/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/samriley/
