YOU'RE DOING THIS WORK BECAUSE.....

You want to do work with meaning while creating freedom for yourself.

But it's hard...

✔️ You want to grow your business but not your stress + workload 

✔️ You know you're a good coach but you don't know where your next client is coming from

✔️ Everyone comes to you for support + guidance, but who do you go to?

✔️ You know you need to get your message out there (marketing) + enroll people (sales) but don't want to do anything that feels icky

✔️ You have an exciting vision but not the frameworks, methods, and systems to get there


What if there was an easy way to have Dream Clients coming to you? 

I know, it’s a bold statement.

Hey there, I’m Robb....

I’m passionate about helping people grow their businesses but it all means nothing without the human connection & deeper purpose. Before I started focusing on LinkedIn, I got clients from sharing my message + building audiences on Myspace, Facebook, and Instagram. While the platforms may change, the principals remain the same. It's all about how you communicate your message.

Since 2019, I've helped over 410 entrepreneurs + coaches launch & grow.

CURIOUS OR HAVE QUESTIONS? Send me a DM :)

Every kid who came to our house for Halloween was given the same choice: "Do you want candy or a potato?"

The different reactions were hilarious:

• Some were confused ("is it a real potato?")
• Younger kids were discouraged by their parents from choosing the starchy vegetable ("no honey, you don't want a potato")
• And several kids cheered ("I got a potato!", "yeah, potato!", or "potato, let's gooooo!!!")
  
We ran out of potatoes first.

It's doesn't makes sense logically.

And if you asked a 100 people what they think the reaction would be to offering potatoes to trick or treaters, few would've said that the potatoes would be the highlight of the night. Not many would've guessed that the dirt covered vegetables would create way more excitement than that the candy.

So what's the business lesson I'm going to shoehorn in here? 

You can sit around all day thinking about what you believe your clients want. You can fill out worksheets. And you can even soundboard ideas with someone like me. 

And you might come up with some good stuff.

But NOTHING beats putting offers in front of your clients to see how they respond. There's no better feedback than a real experiment. Because even what your clients tell you they THINK they want can be different from how they actually react live in the moment.

I'm still processing what the hell happened this weekend.

Wow.

And it's going to take me a few more days. 

3 standout comments:

1. "People are so warm, open, and connected here."
2. "I've never been to a conference where people hug this much."
3. "I wasn't nervous about getting on stage because of how non-judgemental this crowd is."

P.S. Sorry/not sorry for filling your feed with dozens of re-shared posts from the incredible humans that helped us co-create something so damn awesome.

Evelyn sung on stage.
Tony performed a freestyle rap.
And the entire room sang happy birthday to Cat.

That was in-between an open floor discussion about using AI in your content, five separate standing ovations, and hundreds of deep conversations that could never have been scripted.

None of this was scheduled. 

That's part of the magic of DO BOLD SH*T. While we do have a few speakers planned, you don't come to the event to passively watch others on stage. YOU'RE INVITED TO CO-CREATE THE EXPERIENCE WITH US.

And this group of humans created something beautiful.

47 different people ended up on stage over the course of the two days.

My only worry?

How the f**k are we going to top this next year!

2025 is going to be my best year ever. I'll make more than 4x what my six-figure salary was as a Director of People & Culture this year.

But... 

My website needs an overhaul, my about section on LinkedIn is out of date, and I've only posted 3-4 times a week in 2025.

So what's made the difference? 

These 3 things played a role....

1. Invaluable insights from mentors (like learning to generate the right kind of long-form content that creates clients)
2. Some big internal shifts in belief (yes, I CAN make more money while not sacrificing my health, relationships, or client results)
3. Continuing to double-down on what's working instead of chasing new things (my ADHD loves shiny distractions 😅)

But there's one exercise I did last November which I credit the most.

I mapped out the year in a way that getting more clients, making more impact, and having more freedom was inevitable.

And I'm inviting you to join me as I walk through my annual planning process so you can have a kickass 2026.

https://lnkd.in/g4Gs_P-s

Wed Nov 12th - 12pm Eastern

It's a 90 minute workshop
With no big pitch.

Just a practical session where I share the exact process I've used to have my best year ever.

I won't pretend it's easy. And you have to be a little crazy to say yes to this list....

Feeling vulnerable as you put yourself out there.

Constantly questioning if you're good enough as you learn new skills, tools, and platforms.

Being the head of...

Sales
Admin
Delivery
Creativity
Marketing
Accounting
and everything else when you're starting out.

Having to push through doubt, rejection, and launches that flop.

All while being slapped by the reality of any deeper work that you've managed to avoid up to this point because there's nowhere to hide from your baggage when you're building your own thing.

BUT WHEN I LOOK AT THE ALTERNATIVE...

Commuting to a job that drains you, in clothes you hate to wear, to try and impress people you don't like, who will fire you in a minute if it meets the business needs....

I'll pass and carve my own path.

Day 1 was magic. 
Curious to see for yourself?
There’s loads in my IG stories.

People like us care.
We lead with empathy.
We have a creative side.
We're curious + love to learn.
We want to do work with meaning.
We love what we do + want to enjoy the ride.
We know there's something connecting all living things.
And want to grow our business by building relationships instead of chasing transactions.

Plus....

We've lived through some sh*t and want to use the learning from our experiences to help others.

I spontaneously said this on a call with clients a couple weeks ago and it really hit. So I'm thinking you might find it helpful.

If you don't put in the time, effort, and energy into refining your message so you can explain what you do in a clear + memorable way, you're putting the burden of trying to explain what you do on others.

And then you wonder why you're not getting more inbound inquiries, referrals, and clients.

What do I do?

When coaches are good at what they do and care deeply about the people they serve start a business, it’s hard because they're often not also great at getting their message out + enrolling clients. They’re separate skills. And they definitely don't want to do anything pushy or salesy to get clients. So I help them craft a magnetic message, create Hell Yes offers, and build a business that turns strangers into clients without doing anything icky. That way, they feel proud when telling their friends + family not just about the impact that they're having, but also about the revenue that they're making.

What do you do?

7 ways to know you have a messaging problem in your coaching business....

When your messaging is off, everything else in your business is more difficult. That's why dialling in a Magnetic Message is where I start with (almost) every client.

And after working with 430+ people from 17 different countries, I've seen the patterns.

So here's 7 signs that your messaging needs some love...

1. YOU FEEL AWKWARD ANSWERING THE “WHAT DO YOU DO” QUESTION.
You dread the question or find yourself feeling embarrassed after trying to answer it.

2. IT'S HARD TO EXPLAIN YOUR VALUE WITHOUT A LONG BACKSTORY.
You need 10 minutes to explain what you do + why it matters. 

3. PEOPLE STRUGGLE TO KNOW IF YOU'RE THE COACH FOR THEM.
When folks land on your profile or website they can't quickly identify if you're the coach "for them" or not. That's because your language is too broad ("I help humans transform their life"), because you're showing zero personality, or because you're using too much coachy coach jargon that doesn't mean anything to the average person.

4. YOU'RE ATTRACTING THE WRONG CLIENTS.
The people who reach out either don't align with your values, drain your energy, aren't ready to buy, or are in total crisis mode.

5. YOU'RE NOT PROUD OF YOUR CONTENT, PROFILE, OR WEBSITE. 
The words don't sound like you. Maybe you borrowed language from other coaches, filtering what you say, or hiding who you really are. 

6. YOUR CONTENT GETS ENGAGEMENT BUT YOU DON'T GET INQUIRES.
Claps ain't cash. So even though you're getting likes + comments, you're not getting clients. This means what you're sharing is interesting, but it's missing what makes people take action.

7. WHEN YOU DO GET ON CALLS WITH PEOPLE, YOU HAVE TO DO A LOT OF EXPLAINING.
You have to spend a lot of your time on calls explaining, teaching, and maybe even convincing people (instead of the calls being about strategy + if you two are a fit).

If you're feeling any of these and what to chat, DM me messaging.

Are you willing to create content that will make people cancel calls with you?  

That probably sounds scary. 

But if you actually want to attract clients. 

And specifically "holy crap, I can't believe that I get to work with these people" kind of clients, that's what you need to be willing to do.

This clip was taken from a 57 minute training covers:

• The 3 key pieces you need to make your messaging magnetic to coaching clients you're excited to serve
• 2 things you need to change right away if want your enrollment calls (aka disco calls) to stop feeling awkward or clumsy.
• Exactly what you need to get more clients, make more impact, and have more freedom (without pitch-slapping strangers or posting every day).

There's currently 73 people signed up. And what I've learned in the last six years is these 73 peeps are actually more likely to achieve the goals + intentions they set for next year.
