Customers don’t think the way you do. When I first launched my coaching practice, a consultant told me I should set up a free “discovery call” for potential clients to meet me. It was an opportunity to assess fit and decide if we should work together.
Didn't we reconnect through a discovery call? I agree that it's a bad name and that it shouldn't be too salesy, but I don't think offering them for free is a bad idea, especially when you're first starting out. Once you get your business going, offering them at a discounted price makes sense.
Yes, I bet we did! I'll still offer a free call for people who actually know me (e.g., old colleagues, like yourself) and referrals. But, my website will direct strangers to this new call.
