How to take total ownership of the client/provider relationship and never let go
Dec. 20 / 10am CT
Things will get better the day you realize you don’t have to work with ‘bad-but-pays-the-bills-clients.’
You can work exclusively with people who want to work with you badly enough that they are willing to pay full value - and wait as long as they have to - for the privilege.
You’re sick of working so hard to please your clients you wonder is the money even worth it?
If you're like other consultants, you:
Spend half your time putting out fires
Are struggling to work on your business in addition to meeting all of your clients’ needs
Struggle to gain access to what you need to do your job
Get sucked into casual conversation about kids and family that, while well-meaning, eats into your day
Wish you could earn more from less clients
Always feeling like you’re having to reinvent the wheel
Find yourself on a never-ending treadmill to find “The Ideal Client”
So you start to take on lower-paying, less PiTB client …
For the relationship
*as if that’s somehow worth less?
Because that’s where you can really make a difference
*as if that too is worth less?
For the referrals
*To more lower-paying clients
Still, deep down, you believe that you can hold out for the crème de la crème, but…
You’re worried you’ll lose income
It could all go away tomorrow!
It’s borderline impossible to say “no” to someone handing you money
It always seems so promising at the beginning
By holding out for someone better, you might lose the client right in front of you
If you could just put up with the stress for a little while longer, you’ll retire eventually and it will all be worth it
You could make changes but:
Your current clients are taking up all of your time
You're stuck waiting on your clients to get you their background, access to their clients and feedback.
You don’t know how to say no or reprice clients when scope grows
It seems like you should be making some real progress – especially since you:
Launched a subscription model
Hired a V.A.
Let a few of your more draining (and underpaying) clients go
Found a killer copywriter to do some of your social media marketing
Landed a “whale” client that should make up for the ideal clients you undercharged
Used ChatGPT and automation to handle some of the menial tasks
Hired a lead-gen service so you could at least have more prospects to choose from
Raised prices 10%
Niched down to get rid of the riff raff
But none of that went according to plan.
Why?
Because the traditional client-provider model is broken.
DESIGNED BY SELF-POSSESSED, GURU, “MADMEN” TYPES
a.k.a.
THE SMARTEST GUYS IN THE ROOM
How else to explain that - even to this day - industry thought leaders still preach:
Be as broad as possible so as not to alienate any prospects
But also specialize or niche as narrowly as possible
Get better at saying “no” to prospects who don’t fit your niche - even if they’re willing to buy
Take up as little of the client’s time as possible
Time is money - your money
Keep the client away from the work while you figure it all out for them
Hourly billing
Believe that revenue and referrals come from giving the client what they want
Brag about the hours they put in
Niche down, but also so keep your website as short and “skimmable”
Tell stories - any stories
The customer is always right
Maybe as little as 5 years ago, all of this would’ve been true.
But today… it doesn’t account for the amount of control the clients need to have to feel good about working with a complete stranger.
it’s also a misunderstanding of where sales, referrals, glowing reviews and even revenue comes from.
“Just meet the client where they’re at,” they say.
That’s assuming you landed the client in the first place.
You’ve been down that road.
No way you’re going back there.
You’re ready to take the leap
To finally break free
But, what if you show up to …
Nothing
Hello?
Is anybody there?
You know there has to be a better way to serve your clients and have a life
An easier life
A meaningful life
A meaningful career
But … you’re still here. Still you. And you’ve already tried all there is to try.
How on EARTH are you supposed to get from where you are now to the solo shop you want to own.
This whole thing feels like a set-up
Like you’re a pawn in someone else’s game.
With what you want just a sliver beyond your grasp.
You dream of clients who:
Appreciate what you bring to the table
Take your advice
Get you what you need on time
Care more about their business than you do
Have zero problems paying you
You would be plenty happy with:
Take-home pay north of 6 figures (well north would be even better)
Building a good steady pipeline without being a neurotic social media poster
Not feeling anxious about where the next gig's coming from
Feeling like you shouldn't talk about how you paid a lot for something you’d gladly do for free
But your time matters more:
If you could just stay one step ahead
Then create a stable roster
Then get far enough ahead to plan ahead
Then book a vacation knowing your clients are fully paid up and taken care of
Then knock off at 5pm
Then take a few weeks off a year - knowing there's work for you when you get back
… that’d be pretty great.
In a perfect world, you’d have:
More creative control
The freedom to really turn your brain off at quittin’ time
To have solid clients who show up for you
To know you've got a system for predictable revenue
To deliver meaningful work that will grow your clients’ businesses
If you could just stop:
The surprise-attack client calls
The lower-than-it-should-be pay
The last-minute drama
The constant pitching
The suspense of not knowing what your client will think
Always seeking approval
Landing a client without feeling like you left money on the table
Best-case scenario, you’d love:
The freedom to work when you want - with who you want
To love what you do again
To enjoy your success
To retire knowing you did good work for good people
Or perhaps not want to retire at all
This is what you want, but it feels … like it always feels — just beyond your grasp.
Know this:
It is not beyond your grasp.
Here, let me show you.
IT'S NOT AS HARD AS YOU THINK.
Big picture:
Know your ultimate goal
See a clear picture of how to get there
Know the right amount of effort needed
Know when to walk away from the work
And when to come back
That is all.
Shifting the balance of power back in your favor is not:
✦
Magic
✦
Mystical
✦
Or Woo-woo
Nor is it reserved for natural born sales people
(or even the particularly charming ;)
It’s for people who know where their clients need to be at the end of the engagement
And how to make sure everyone feels valued - because you made them feel like the smartest ones in the room.
I CAN SHOW YOU HOW TO GET THERE EVERY SINGLE TIME,
AND HAVE THE INDEPENDENT AUTHORITY YOU CRAVE.
I’ll help you know:
Exactly who you’re targeting and why, so you don’t waste time going down rabbit holes you shouldn’t be anywhere near
Your narrative thread that applies to your business
Your next steps
When to obsess over the details (hardly ever)
What to focus on and when to focus on it
When we do this together, day after day, week after week, month after month, you will be both shocked and impressed by how good you already are at this - almost as if it was in there all along 😉
YOU'LL NEED TO LEARN A FEW THINGS ALONG THE WAY.
I'll walk you through systems and tools you need to be more consistently profitable, like how to:
Build authority
Be creative on-demand
Market yourself quickly, consistently - and not perfectly
Automate follow-up’s
Get your questionnaires answered
Put yourself, your business and your family first
Create agendas that everyone shows up for
Achieve north of 80% attendance and participation from clients
Work less so that you can earn more
I'll give you scripts for situations like:
How to let go of clients that are a drain on profits and morale
How to schedule the kickoff even when the client wants to drag their feet or get their “ducks in a row.”
How to get decision makers’ buy-in early and often
How to sell and keep selling to current clients as the next logical step - without it getting awkward, gross or sales-y
How to increase value and create an obvious need for all of your consulting services
…and so much more.
You'll have everything you need to run things your way, based on your instincts.
It's simpler than you think.
At the end of the day,
it’s 3 things.
1.
Create value.
Based on what are generally the 4 “boxes” prospects need to check: ✔ money ✔ time ✔ health and ✔ happiness
2.
Build in that value with pricing.
Based on market tools that everyone can understand.
3.
Guarantee delivery.
Stay one step ahead of the client and never allow them to wonder where they are in the process.
Master these 3 problems, and you will earn more and produce the best work of your life with more meaning and far less stress.
And you will step out of the cycle of having to take on work you don’t want - at the expense of missing your life.
I can help you build more mutually profitable relationships in a way that works for you.
Whether you work for yourself, freelance, or aspire to break out on your own, you have options to earn more without giving up creative control.

Kind words from solopreneurs in Masterminds

Consulting is complicated enough.
Running your practice doesn’t have to be.
MAKE IT MORE PROFITABLE BY:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Knowing who your people are.
Getting more specific and targeted will streamline your consulting practice immeasurably.
Knowing what your people tend to buy.

When you pull focus from you to your clients and make it about their problems and your solution, they like that a lot :)

Designed to give you 100% results.
I asked myself:
“If I wanted to help freelance, solo and aspiring independent consultants, what would they need to know?”
”What would I include to guarantee they get the results they want?”
"How could I price it so that as many people could take advantage and leave with a skill they could use forever?"
”How could I design a course that helps people work quicker so they can actually have time to take the course!?”
”How could I make it feel like the best decision ever, right away?”
And then I went to work, designing a program that allows you to shift the burden of time from your plate to your clients
- where it belongs -
And where your clients want it with the least amount of effort, risk and sacrifice from you.

Who wrote this page anyway?
Hey, I’m Kevin Freidberg
I help overworked consultants work with the best clients they’ve ever had without undercharging or overworking.
Now that we have the SEO text out of the way, here’s me in plain English…
How did you start coaching solo and aspiring-to-be solo consultants?
I was a marketing director, creative director and independent consultant for 15 years. Working for some of the most prestigious ad agencies and clients in the world including:
But early into my career, I realized one thing:
Great clients are born from great service providers.
Nightmare clients → nightmare providers
We can create our own worst enemies - without even knowing it - by not giving them what they need to help us do what we do best.
Which all comes down to creating enough value so that our clients are inspired to:
show up to meetings
answer questions
give us access to their clients
And set them up to be the experts - not us
Why?
Because we will never know our clients’ businesses as well as they do.
Ever been to a standup comedy show?
The good ones have a payoff every 7-10 seconds. We must do the same for our clients - focus and add value - every 7 - 10 seconds - as best we can, in all of our communication.
So, what’s all this got to do with working with best-ever clients?
Once I started offering value quickly and digestibly from the beginning of the engagement → straight through to the end → all of my clients turned into G.O.A.T.s.
- without tricks, gimmickry, being the cheapest or overcompensating.
Today, it’s my mission in life to help folks like you work with clients that appreciate you and compensate you for the life of your career.
Care to join me?
I’m here.
