241: Getting Clients Is a Numbers Game (And Not the Ones You Think)

241: Getting Clients Is a Numbers Game (And Not the Ones You Think)

Author: Stacey Brass-Russell September 16, 2026 Duration: 36:22

Business is a numbers game — but not the numbers most people think. Not followers, not a huge email list, not the one perfect post you're missing. When you're selling coaching, teaching, or any human-centered offer, you don't need a thousand clients to make really good money. You need as many as it takes at the price of your offer, and you need to put yourself out there many more times than you think to get them.

I'm breaking down what the numbers game really means for clients, bookings, speaking gigs, podcast guest spots, referrals, and every other opportunity you're pitching for — and the two places I look first when a client tells me they're doing all the things and it's not working.

Listen to learn more about:

  1. How many people need to know you exist in order to get the clients and opportunities you want
  2. Why it's so tempting to assume something's wrong with what you're doing — when it's usually just that you need to do more of it
  3. How to tell whether you have a numbers problem or a niche and offer problem
  4. The reason most people won't come right out and sell their offers and what it’s costing them
  5. What it really takes to get picked (and how I know from my years in show business)
  6. What it means to amplify your actions, proportionate to the results you actually want

If you want more clients, more bookings, and more opportunities, this episode is going to be a total eye-opener.
