I've seen it time and again: entrepreneurs in the throes of success, grappling with a hidden dilemma... what to do when clients achieve unprecedented success under their guidance.

Hey, I'm Katie McManus, business strategist and money mindset coach, and this is my podcast "The Weeniecast!"

In the latest episode, "How to offboard clients who are TOO SUCCESSFUL WITH YOU! ", I'm sharing some tips on handling this potentially squirmy aspect of business.

There's this move we need to dance between nurturing a client's growth and knowing when to let go of them and wave them on to their next phase.

I'm sharing a couple of personal stories - one involving a client who found personal growth overtaking her business goals, which leads us to question the very definition of success.

And the other one which talks about an interesting business dynamic I have with my podcast producer, who does all the things.

This is counter to how I'd normally work as a service provider, but it works for him and it's ideal for me!

I also talk about how to ensure your clients become self-reliant, the importance of knowing when to direct clients to new opportunities, and the delicate craft of soliciting impactful testimonials.

This episode won't just share insights—it’s a blueprint for you to follow as an ADHD entrepreneur who wants a solid offboarding process.

Get ready to take notes! You might find the transcript useful for this which you'll find on the episode page at weeniecast.com/how-to-handle-clients-who-are-too-successful!
