Acquire- Lead Generation, Digital Marketing for Entrepreneurs

How can you re-engage past leads without sounding desperate or spammy?

Ever feel like your sales are stuck in quicksand? One month you’re soaring, and the next, it’s crickets. Before you start slashing prices or throwing money at ads that might work, let’s talk strategy.

In this solo episode, I’m diving deep into what actually works when sales slow down—and trust me, it’s not just “hustle harder” advice. I’ll walk you through proven, strategic moves to turn things around, even in an unpredictable economy.

I’ve been in the trenches, I’ve made the panic-driven mistakes, and I’ve also figured out exactly what works when sales take a dip. Whether you're facing a slow month or just want to be prepared for the inevitable ebbs and flows of business, this episode is packed with real, actionable strategies that can help you stay profitable, visible, and thriving—without resorting to desperate moves.
