9 Ways to Generate Fast Cash in Your Business

Your current clients love your work, so why not let them help you grow? People trust recommendations from friends, and you can tap into that power. All you have to do is encourage happy clients to refer others who could benefit from your services. Sweeten the deal by offering a free session or a discount on their next package.

Example: “A holistic health coach I worked with offered a free 30-minute session for every client referral. Within a month, she gained five new clients from word of mouth. It’s such a simple but effective strategy.”

What You Can Do: Send a personalized message to your happy clients asking for referrals. It’s a low-effort, high-reward strategy!

This is a powerful tactic. You can offer a low-cost service or workshop—what we call a ‘loss leader.' The goal here isn’t to make a huge profit upfront but to introduce new clients to your deeper, more valuable services.

Think about how Costco sells their $1.50 hot dog and soda combo or rotisserie chicken at a low price. It draws people in, and once they’re there, they purchase other high-ticket items. You can do the same with your business.

What You Can Do: Create a low-cost offering to give clients a taste of your expertise. Once they see your value, many will want to dive deeper into your higher-tier services.

Want to create some quick buzz? Flash sales are perfect for that. Offering a discounted coaching session, healing package, or exclusive course for a limited time (like 24 hours) can create urgency and excitement.

Example: “A spiritual life coach ran a 24-hour flash sale with a 50% discount on her one-on-one coaching package. She filled her calendar for two months in a single day.”

What You Can Do: Plan a flash sale for one of your most popular services. Promote it ahead of time and make sure the discount is compelling enough to drive people to take action quickly. When the sale ends, you can offer an ongoing service package to keep that momentum going.

It’s easier (and cheaper) to sell to past clients than to attract new ones. Think about your previous clients who haven’t booked with you in a while. Reach out to them with a special, personalized offer that shows you’re thinking about them and their needs.

Example: “A holistic practitioner reconnected with her past clients by offering a special package for chakra alignment sessions. Many clients who hadn’t booked in months jumped at the opportunity, filling up her schedule.”

What You Can Do: Send a personalized message to past clients and offer them something exclusive, like a limited-time package or a special discount to reignite your relationship.

Sometimes, people need to experience your magic before they’re willing to invest. Offering a free discovery call, mini-workshop, or trial session can give potential clients a taste of what you can do, making them more likely to sign up for a full service.

What You Can Do: Offer a free taster session where you provide real value. It will show potential clients the transformation you can offer, leading to more paid clients.

Want to provide immediate, transformative results for your clients? A VIP Day could be just the thing. You can offer either a full-day or half-day session where you work closely with a client to help them achieve a major breakthrough. This is a high-ticket offering, but clients love the results.

Example: “I have offered a one-day VIP session for $1500-$3000, and I help clients plan their signature framework, irresistible offers, and entire year’s marketing strategy. It was a win-win—clients got immediate results, and I brought in a quick, solid revenue stream.”

What You Can Do: Create a VIP Day offering that provides a high-value, intensive session for your clients. It’s a great way to deliver fast results while also increasing your income.

Affiliate programs allow others to promote your services in exchange for a commission. It’s a fantastic way to expand your reach without doing all the heavy lifting. Find JV (joint venture) partners whose services complement yours.

For example:

A supplement company could partner with a fitness expert or health coach to offer a holistic health solution.

A relationship coach might team up with a financial advisor or money coach to support couples in managing finances, which is often a big relationship issue.

A business coach could partner with a branding or social media expert to help clients with both strategy and execution.

Be Selective: Make sure to only partner with affiliates who have a good reputation and align with your brand values.

What You Can Do: Set up an affiliate program with a fair commission structure. Make sure to provide your affiliates with promotional materials to help them succeed.

Masterclasses are a powerful way to showcase your expertise and build trust. Choose a topic that your audience is eager to learn about and provide valuable, actionable insights. At the end of the masterclass, offer a product or service that complements the training and helps participants implement what they’ve learned.

Example: “I have worked with many coaches who host free masterclasses including myself. You offer a course or have them book a discovery call to discuss your group coaching program. Many of the attendees convert into paying clients.”

What You Can Do: Host a masterclass on a topic you know your audience needs help with. Deliver value, then present an offer that helps them take the next step. If it's a high-ticket offer, get them to book a discovery session to qualify for it. Do not share the price on the masterclass if it is high-ticket.

One of the best long-term strategies for growth is creating a niched community filled with your ideal clients. Whether it’s a Facebook group or a private membership, a community allows you to nurture relationships, offer value, and build trust over time. Some members will become clients, while others will refer your services to others.

What You Can Do: Create a community that aligns with your audience’s needs. Engage regularly and provide consistent value. As you build relationships, your community will naturally generate leads and clients for you.

I highly recommend a SKOOL community. Facebook groups are harder to engage with, and Facebook limits who can see your posts. You can try SKOOL with a 14-day FREE trial (affiliate link). If you sign up using my link, let me know, and I will give you a free coaching session and onboarding call.

Offering free discovery calls or mini-sessions is a great way to build relationships, even if you don’t have any clients yet. This lets people experience your expertise, which can lead to paid clients down the road.

Reach out to friends, family, or colleagues who may know someone who needs your services. Offering a discounted rate for your first few clients can help you build momentum.

Offer free or discounted services in exchange for testimonials. These will give you the social proof you need to attract paying clients.
