Most solopreneurs find the majority of their work through referrals or repeat business from previous clients. These successful independents are the ones who come to mind when the need for their services arises. As I explain in my book, Succeeding as a Solopreneur, the two keys to making this happen are being memorable and nourishing your network. Using a “love list” is an excellent way to do both because it keeps your name fresh in people’s minds. Take a look at how you can build your own "love list"! https://lnkd.in/gACdKgv8

They say success comes from who you know as much as what you know. But what if you don't know the right people? What if you don't have any friends in high-profile corporate positions who can get you in the door or funnel business your way? Then it's up to you to create those connections yourself. That's why knowing how to engage with a stranger and getting them interested in getting to know you and learning more, is a super-power that can propel a solopreneur toward success. In this fast-paced and interactive 1-hour workshop, Inc. columnist Minda Zetlin will teach you how to start a conversation with absolutely anybody in any setting, so you can start building a relationship that can help you expand your business. Plus, you'll come away with a list of conversation-starters that you can use or adapt next time you need to get a dialogue going. Minda has written extensively about how to start conversations in all kinds of situations - and she's used these techniques herself to start working relationships worth years of income. Come learn how you can use these skills in your own business. https://lnkd.in/gxNMxv4V
