Dear Gretchen: I’ve recently found out through a coworker that upon being hired at my company there was a lot of chatter around my name. Some of my male colleagues were sifting through my social media platforms making inappropriate comments (I.E “she’s nothing special but I’d still bend her over a desk” and joking about […]

When I first started out as a coach, I remember feeling stuck when it came to finding clients. I had the skills, the drive, and a clear vision for my business…
But, turning that into actual clients? That felt like a different story. 😔
I didn’t want to cold call or send salesy messages to people I hadn’t spoken to in years. (And I know many of you don’t want to do this either!)
It all seemed so overwhelming until I learned about the Green, Yellow, and Red list strategy, which helped me feel confident with my outreach.
The process is simple yet impactful! Let me walk you through it.
🟢 Start with your Green List.
This is the list of people who are easy to reach out to—your friends, family, current and past coworkers, and people from any groups or organizations you’re part of. These are your warmest connections.
🟡 Next, move on to your Yellow List.
These are people you know, but aren’t super close with. Maybe they’d send you a get well card, but they wouldn’t show up at your door with soup. Think of old colleagues, acquaintances, or distant friends.
🔴 Finally, your Red List.
This is your list of people who seem a bit intimidating or out of reach. Think of professionals like doctors, lawyers, or high profile people in your network. You may want to avoid these conversations, but they’re worth putting on your radar.
I’ll be honest, reaching out to someone on my Red List always feels nerve-racking.
But I remind myself: I’m offering something valuable. ✨
After sending a simple message, I often end up with a new client a few months later.
Sometimes, we have to stretch beyond what feels comfortable in order to really grow. 🌱
