## Resource

Most health coaches think referrals come from "doing a good job." They don't. Good service creates satisfied clients, but referrals come from emotion, identity, and timing. If you're not building those into your process, you'll always be relying on hope instead of a system. In this episode, I break down how to turn 1 client into 5+ referrals without awkward asks by creating key moments where clients naturally want to introduce you to others, and shifting from "asking for business" to helping the people they care about. Referrals aren't asked for, they're triggered. If your clients aren't referring, it's not a people problem, it's a process problem. On today's Integrative #HealthCoachSuccess episode 436 you'll learn how to turn 1 client into 5 referrals without awkwardly asking - Enjoy the show and let us know what you thought! - - - Listen or Watch At: IHP.Coach/436 - - - Dr. Cabral's Book, The Rain Barrel Effect: https://amzn.to/2H0W7Ge - - - Become an Integrative Health Practitioner: https://integrativehealthpractitioner.org
