Special bonus

101 Ways to Find Customers

Every sprint participant gets our guide 101 Ways to Find Customers for Senior Consultants and Fractional Executives — a practical collection of proven ways to fill your pipeline, from warm outreach and referrals to partnerships, communities and content.

Use it alongside the sprint: pick the approaches that fit your business, test them during the 14 days and keep the rest as your go-to idea bank for the months after.

How the sprint works

The programme is primarily asynchronous, so you can fit the activities around your client work and existing commitments. Most activities take 30–60 minutes, with clear tasks and guidance to help you move forward at your own pace.

Can't make a live session? You can catch up with the recording.

But you won't have to do it all alone:

  • Learn from other freelancers and see how they approach their sales challenges.
  • Share your outreach messages and get feedback.
  • Exchange experiences, ideas and responses.
  • Join live sessions for training, practical feedback and accountability.

This sprint is not about learning how to sell. It's about actually doing it.

The Customer Acquisition Sprint is exclusively available to Freelance Business Community members. Your membership also gives you access to the community and ongoing support throughout 2027.
