Ever have a client you really liked working with quit? You know how upsetting it can be.
This week, one of my favorite clients, wrote me to let me know that he wanted to stop working with me after just two months.
Did I blow it, tick him off or what? You be the judge.
Kris Simmons, of FireEye Productions owns a web and video production company. In 2007 he’d seen a devastating slow down in business and been forced to layoff most of his staff. Kris had signed up as a mentoring client in early February of 2008.
He thought his business was a victim of the slowing economy but believed there were still plenty of clients out there if only he could get their attention and their business. Then 8 weeks after signing up Kris quit!
Why? Why did Kris quit as a mentoring client?
From the start, Kris jumped on each strategy and idea I provided him and put as many of them as he could to use. The result?
Kris sold 30 projects in less than two months, which in his words “Is HUGE!” In fact it was more than he’d ever signed up in any two-month period since he started his business eight years ago and to boot he did it in the midst of a recession.
Kris wrote me to say that he had to stop working with me because even with outsourcing 90% of the new projects, he was working around the clock to keep up with the demand that I’d helped him tap. With all the new clients he’d landed he didn’t have time to keep up with the mentoring program and wanted to stop working together, at least for now.
I’ll miss working with Kris. He was fun to work with and most importantly followed through on the strategies and ideas I shared with him.
Want to benefit from my misfortune?
Fill Kris’s spot.
I now have one new space available in my mentoring program and if you act quickly and apply and you’re accepted you could be the next person to discover how to get more business than you ever imagined.
To your success,

P.S. Be forewarned! Kris had the same complaint that other clients have mentioned in the past. He told me I should have warned him about the tsunami of business that he could expect.
So consider yourself warned. The marketing strategies and ideas I share with my clients can bring you in more new business than you ever imagined.
