Hello all. I have put together a small poll on LinkedIn asking this question. I would love your insights. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/garettbugda_im-curious-to-hear-your-take-please-provide-activity-7251684875060088849-1oSn?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop

You guys ask this a lot, so here's a new answer that emerged from a recent training event! Let me know what you think.

Hi everyone. Jamie here. I’ve just started my own consultancy in facilitating. Been doing it a while for companies I’ve worked for. Would love some advice on how to score some clients ❤️

Most facilitators looking for clients on LinkedIn (or X etc) make one big mistake: They don’t show how they’ll help clients SAVE or MAKE MONEY. Clients don't buy workshops, they don't buy LDJ, they don't buy better communication. They only want to save or make money (or time which is money). Change this one thing on LinkedIn (and your website), and they’ll be reaching out to you. Here’s what to do: 🔥 Update Your LinkedIn Headline & Banner → Show tangible value you deliver: savings, results, growth, timeframe Examples for valuable LinkedIn Headline ideas: HR Facilitator: “Helping Companies Reduce Employee Turnover by 30% with efficient workshops” Product Development Facilitator: “Boosting Product Success Rates by 25% with PMF Alignment Workshops” Sales Facilitator: “Helping Teams Increase Sales Efficiency by 20% in 3 Months with efficient Customer Experience Workshops” Next: Start posting real results from your workshops! 🚫 Don't use buzzwords or jargon like “LDJ” or “Design Sprint.” They DO NOT use these terms, they don't understand these terms! Clients want to see impact, not our tools. Wish you a lot of inbound requests (inbound is when they ask you to help them. It's what everyone loves) P.S: DM me, and I’ll send you the exact prompt I use to create headlines that show how your workshops make or save money.

Hey Folks 🙋‍♂️ I was thinking of an idea - what if people share the open gigs / opportunities for facilitation engagement via online medium through a dedicated platform. The facilitation can include: ✅ Webinars ✅ Masterclasses ✅ Workshops ✅ Team Building Sessions etc.. The whole idea is to help the facilitators from group to leverage each other’s strengths, explore collaborations & share references to fill in the gaps of requirements from clients. It could be on paid engagement (revenue share) or pro-bono depending on type of requirement. I’m curious to if any such gig platform exists specifically for facilitators ? If not what could be the next steps to get started for this community of talented people.. Happy to hear thoughts from the group if this resonates well & feasible enough to execute 😊 PS: I’m looking for some ways how I can get to facilitate some of opportunities for global audience..
