Want to know what the most frequently asked question is that I get from both new and established business owner?
“Natalie, how the heck do you get more clients?”
There are so many great ways to grow your client list that many of us overlook and that’s because attracting new clients and learning to sell yourself is an art.
If you’re anything like I was, you likely feel icky about selling or promoting yourself or your work but it’s time to get over that!
Luckily for us, that’s where Matthew Kimberley comes in. He is a master sales expert known for helping organizations and individuals learn how to sell themselves without selling out.
From running an IT recruitment company to becoming a renowned sales trainer, Matthew has come a long way. He realized early on that being a manager was not his cup of tea but sales came to him very naturally. Combining his love for both sales and training he became a – drum roll please – Sales Trainer.
He’s conducted hundreds of training programs, he’s the head of the Book Yourself Solid School of Coach Training by Michael Port. and has also written a book called How to Get a Grip.
