(Although, I do love a well-written video script that gets new leads in the door!)

I’m not convinced there’s a one-size-fits-all approach to attracting your clients or patients.

And I definitely don’t go around preaching, “You must only use XYZ content strategy to reach your next revenue goal.”

Business is different for everyone.

Depending on…

• your lifestyle goals
• your current practice/business size
• your niche

…your marketing strategy HAS to look different from everyone else’s.

With that said, if you are a service-based business owner or you’re a professional service provider, then I highly encourage you to post more video content in 2025. As you share videos of yourself with potential clients, you get to demonstrate the body language and communication style that clients can expect once they start working with you.

At the same time, you have to find exactly the kind of video content creation that matches your goals (regarding money, time at work, and client relationships).

So instead of putting yourself in a box, please keep things adaptable. That’s your one assignment in 2025!

Remember that all video marketing starts with writing down great ideas. Starting right now, I’m making my writing available to you in the most flexible way possible – whatever you need, whenever you need it.

Selecting the best digital tools for your business depends on a few key factors:

• Your budget
• Your lifestyle
• Your writing skills
• How much you want to be hands-on in your business versus outsourcing tasks

Creating a streamlined sales funnel is essential for turning potential clients into paying customers. Here’s a breakdown of an example sales funnel that uses digital tools to keep your business running smoothly and attract clients even when you’re offline.

Business Tools for Attracting Leads

In any sales funnel, the first stage is capturing attention. You’ll want to create consistent, high-quality content that draws people in, whether it’s through social media, blog posts, or videos.

iPhone Camera Filter

Your phone camera is more powerful than you might think! With the right settings and filters, you can capture polished, branded photos and videos with consistent lighting, shadows, and colors every time. This helps create a cohesive look for your brand, increasing recognition and trust.

ChatGPT

Use ChatGPT to organize your content ideas and adapt your writing to different brand voices. This is especially helpful for creating engaging captions, blog posts, and even product descriptions. ChatGPT can help keep your tone consistent, no matter the platform.

Business Tools for Nurturing Your Audience

After attracting your audience, you need to build a relationship with them. Automated email sequences, social media posts, and interactive content can all help establish credibility and nurture leads.

Instagram Scheduler

Scheduling tools can help you keep up with regular posting without taking up too much of your time. You can plan and publish carousels, reels, or stories even while you’re busy with other responsibilities. The more consistent you are, the more likely you’ll stay top of mind for your followers.

Meta Ads Manager

Meta Ads Manager is ideal for running targeted ad campaigns on Facebook and Instagram. You can reach new audiences and drive them to your landing page, helping you capture more leads. The tool also provides insights, so you know what’s working and can adjust as needed.

Business Tool for Capturing Leads

Once people are interested, the next step is to capture their contact information. This is where you transition from social media followers to subscribers or potential clients who are closer to converting.

Kit

Kit (formerly known as ConvertKit) allows you to create landing pages where people can subscribe to your email list. This is an essential step in building a relationship with your audience. Kit also sends automated email sequences that keep subscribers engaged with valuable content, moving them toward your website.

Business Tool for Converting Leads

After capturing leads, it’s time to make the official sale. You can do this by reiterating your deliverables, as well as creating personalized interactions that help them feel confident about working with you.

HoneyBook

HoneyBook is a client management system that organizes client inquiries, manages project timelines, and handles contracts and payments. This tool not only keeps you organized but also provides a smooth client experience, so leads feel taken care of every step of the way.

Business Tools for Automating Your Sales Funnel

While the above tools cover the essentials, here are a few more to consider for automating and optimizing your sales funnel:

Website Plugins

Depending on your website builder, plugins can add additional features like lead capture forms, SEO tools, and more.

Zapier

Connects your apps and automates workflows, which is perfect for making repetitive tasks easier.

IFTTT (If This Then That)

Automates various tasks and helps you streamline workflows across different platforms.

Wrapping Up

You have a natural gift.

The business you built has you providing a service that you would do even if you weren’t getting paid – under the right circumstances, of course.

Somewhere down the line, you realized you simply could not hide your passion. You found out it’s possible (and worth it) to merge your passion with your career.

At this point in your business, you see great things happening between you and your clients. 

And you also know that a more stable version of your business is waiting for you, on the other side of collaboration.

Yes, creative collaboration feels edgy because you don’t want to lose your unique way of marketing or running your business.

But you also know it’d be *so* worth it if you could:

• get an extra pair of eyes on your marketing strategy
• sharpen your creative process
• break into higher revenue
• experience a more balanced energy exchange

Instead of wondering what to post on social media, how to make the most of your website, and how to sell to your email list…

…you’re excited to dig deeper so that the people who need your gift can access it in 2023.

Affirmation over.

Now, what’s one way you can invite collaboration into your business this month? You don’t have to do it all by yourself.

In the meantime, it’s just me. The kind of growth I’m imagining requires both mindset work and hands-on strategy.

Here’s what I’m doing online and offline, to grow my service-based B2B business.

How I’m Growing My Business Online

Every day I’m focused on improving my business ownership by 1%.

• Showing face
• Writing content
• Giving gifts
• Emailing leads
• Educating myself
• Delivering my service with quality and care

How I’m Growing My Business Offline

Behind-the-scenes personal work is just as valuable as the projects that we typically associate with business development.

• Eating well
• Asking for help
• Prioritizing sleep and rest
• Trusting the process of life
• Saying no to some extracurriculars
• Understanding I have value with or without a business
