Ep 154: Revive Your Referrals: LinkedIn Networking for B2B Service Businesses

What happens when referrals stop—and how can you flip the switch once again?

I’m back behind the mic for a solo episode — and it’s a juicy one. In this episode, I walk you through Mission Three: Niche Networker from the Tiny Marketing Club. If your referrals have started to slow (or totally stop), I share what’s really going on and exactly how to fix it. From finding the right communities to crafting gateway offers and building genuine connections on LinkedIn, I’m giving you the full process I used to build my business — and help my clients do the same.

Resources I Mentioned

Here are the tools, templates, and strategies I walked through:

  • Tiny Marketing Club – Mission Three: Niche Networker

  • Gateway Offer – the “easy yes” offer I help members build in Mission One

  • LinkedIn Playbook – my step-by-step approach to showing up in the right feeds and building a trust-based network

  • Magic DM Template – how I start conversations that convert without being awkward or spammy

  • Follow-Up Flow – my system for staying top of mind and nurturing leads naturally

  • Dream Prospect Map – how I intentionally grow a network of buyers, referral partners, and industry peers

  • LinkedIn Prospecting Workshop – the live + replay workshop where I show you how I made $94k in 30 days using this exact system (replay available if you're late!)
