Ep #428: Surprise Episode

Can referral advice from 2019 still help your business in 2026? Absolutely.

Ep #427: Why Great Service Doesn't Automatically Generate Referrals

What if you're doing incredible work for your clients, but the referrals still aren't coming consistently? That's exactly where my conversation with Kelly Brubaker of the Your Profitable Law Firm podcast took us. I loved this conversation because she was asking the referral questions so many business owners are thinking but may not know how to articulate.
