Create 5-figure revenue months with online and offline networking.
The Creative Selling Game is the 12-month marketing program helping creative service providers and coaches make content marketing irrelevant with networking.
Networking creates CLIENTS, not just collabs.
- You don’t know how to find networking opportunities
- You think you can only network in-person at very specific events highly relevant to your niche
- You only network once in a blue moon, and when you do, you feel like you’re dragging your feet
- You don’t want to sound like a used car salesman or seem pushy
- “Network online” sounds like “cold DM”, and of course you don’t want to do that
- You don’t know how to get someone from meeting you at a networking event to asking to hire you
- Everybody keeps talking about content, and it seems easy enough to just selfies from bed, so…you keep trying to crack the content marketing code
The only reason you’re not seeing leads and clients from networking *yet* is:
Networking is the fastest, simplest way to sign clients.
It’s what all creatives and creative thinkers making a living doing what they love have in common -- a network and strong connection skills.
But here’s the thing
Once you know how to leverage networking,
It’s the most creative marketing strategy out there, and it works in ¼ of the time that content does.
ESPECIALLY if you are just getting started or coming out of a revenue dry-spell.
Because all the best content in the world won’t make a difference if nobody cares enough about you to find your profile and look at it.
Because you *think* you’re providing value through your content, but nothing beats the value of a highly relevant, person-to-person conversation and offer.
Because, sure, you’re showing up at networking events, and you're meeting people…but you’re not necessarily connecting with them in a way that creates clients in a predictable way.
I was right there with ya when I had a 4-month $0 dry spell.
People were telling me my content was great -- but no sales.
I would come up with convoluted, strategic marketing plans -- but no sales.
Until my coach asked me something in a throwaway text:
“Sarah, when was the last time you made an offer to a person in an actual conversation, not just with a CTA at the end of a post?”
And the answer was…maybe never.
I immediately thought, well -- here goes nothing. Let me give this a try, because I have nothing to lose.
Over the next six weeks, I prioritized networking.
I got creative and playful with how I did.
And I created $40,000 in six weeks.
This networking process is now The Creative Selling Game.
The Creative Selling Game produces 5-figure revenue months with networking when you play.
All while treating marketing and selling like its own artistic medium that you can play with.

ENERGETICALLY YOU
I know how to bring in money. I’ve become AMAZING at bringing in leads for my business. I’m trying different things and different ways of inviting people.
I created my first package. I’m celebrating ME and MY style of working with my clients. I’ve become comfortable with marketing. With just asking and putting my stuff out there. I feel safe to be seen in the public eye.
I’m going to continue creating comfort, fun, energy, and enjoyment in the marketing and selling process, not just the end-game. I’m taking the pressure off and focusing on being curious and helpful.

THE EXISTENTIAL COACH
ABI MALLICK, MSSW
Meshelle went from $40k months to her first $100k month and consistent $60k months since working with Sarah.
Not only did she and her team grow revenue, but she also grew her peace of mind, creative problem solving, and team leadership skills. And we have more family time and quality time and me time. I didn't have to put in 100 hours for the week or add on more tasks to get the same goals.

Made her first $10,000 sale in Month 2
I didn’t know much about business. I really needed help to get that off the ground. I knew I could service people, but I didn’t know how to. I’ve stepped into so many spaces that I was afraid to before.
In my business, I’m doing much better. I’m more confident in the things that I do.
I’ve learned that it’s okay to fail. Someone’s on my side.
In my business, I’ve become a lot more creative. My business is continuously growing.
THE KENNEDY REMEDY
KENNEDY TOWNSEND
From $10k in a whole year to $9,500 in 12 weeks
Before, I didn’t know if I could just sign a client. I was doing workshops over and over again that I didn’t want to do. I kept putting things out there that I felt like I ‘had’ to. I don’t do that anymore.
In the last couple of weeks, I’ve had a cumulative effect feeling.
I’m in the forge my own path space rather than in the fit-in space. I’ve finally started to embody goal-setting that’s more action than outcome. I learned how to experiment and not be attached to a positive outcome every time. I’m able to do riskier things and try different things now, knowing that I can find and sign a client.
There’s been a big change in my presence in general -- what I’m putting out there, how I’m showing up. It feels so good to look at my calendar and see recurring clients.
