## Resource

--->> https://askmecoach.com You're not starting over; you're skipping over the easiest money in your business. Renee Hribar breaks down why so many consultants and service providers feel like they're building from scratch, when the truth is they're sitting on a warm list of people who already know them, like them, and are ready to be invited. Through a real client story, Renee walks through a simple three-step system — building a "love list" of 10 real names, meeting those people where they already are, and sending a genuine three-sentence message that ends with an actual question. No funnels, no rebranding, no 17-workshop strategy. Just focused conversations with people who already recognize your name. The fastest path to revenue isn't more visibility — it's proximity, familiarity, and a real invitation. This week's challenge is simple: write down 10 names, reach out to five people today and five tomorrow, and watch what happens when you stop pre-rejecting your own list.
