You will gain hundreds of pragmatic, real-world strategies for immediately filling your pipeline with qualified prospects and easily converting them into clients. Plus many, many tips on what to say to smooth over the inevitable rough spots with every client.If you’re a consultant, independent professional, business coach, service business owner, trainer, author, speaker or infopreneur of any kind, this program is designed specifically for you. Or maybe you’re reading this because you’ve had the urge to lead workshops or retreats…to connect on a profound level with a group of people for a few hours, or a full day or even a weekend. This is the program that will get you in front of prospects.

What Others Say
“Client Seduction is indeed an alluring process to attract prospects cost-effectively and rapidly. This is an ideal resource for the entrepreneur beginning any type of professional services firm.”
Alan Weiss, author of Million-Dollar Consulting
“Thank you Rhonda for this gem of a book.”
Bob Burg, author Endless Referrals
“The 2 Minute Networker identifies the personal characteristics and information necessary to be successful at networking the first time you implement them. Thank you Rhonda for such a comprehensive yet easy to implement networking bible!”
Scott Shilling, speaker, author, and “Streetwise” Sales Consultant
“Your new-client-generating process has created a real advantage for us in the IT consulting marketplace. Overall we estimate that our closed deals have increased by about 25%, and the quality of our leads has dramatically improved."
C. David Brown, Solutions Consulting Group
“There was nothing in the least bit racy about Client Seduction - but then, we were probably foolish to expect it. What we found, instead, was tip after useful tip to help professional service firms generate and follow up on client leads. Author Henry DeVries, of the New Client Marketing Institute, has assembled a trove of lead generation and marketing information that ranges from the common sense to the revelatory.”
Practical Accountant magazine
“The author exposes the myths that often cripple well intended marketing efforts and provide a step-by-step approach to strengthening your ‘Client Seduction’ plan. A practical reference every IT services executive should read.”
Michael R. Thomas, Unisys
“I attended Henry’s half-day presentation to the PRSA San Diego chapter this summer and walked away with so many solid, business-generating ideas that I knew my practice would grow to the next level. And it has! Henry’s ideas are energizing, make sense and best of all, make money. If Warren Buffet is the guru of stock investing, then Henry DeVries is the guru of how to win clients. He gave me an idea that cost me $150 per month that immediately netted me an $18,000 contract (with an option to renew for another $18,000 in six months).”
Marisa Vallbona, APR, CIM Incorporated
“In addition to our mini-seminars, a local business newspaper with circulation throughout the county agreed to publish my own column on a monthly basis directed specifically at one of our most desirable target markets. We accomplished more in six months with Henry than in the past three years on our own.”
David R. Hickey, Corradino, Hickey & Hansen
“Finally, an actually easy to read system that guides the reader through the process of networking at its essence. A simple masterpiece.”
Greg Reid, #1 best selling author, the Millionaire Mentor
