  • UPDATED WEEKLY

Here’s a hard truth most coaches and consultants face... Your dream clients are visiting your website and quietly clicking away to competitors. It’s not because you’re not good at what you do. It’s because your story isn’t connecting. After 23 years crafting stories for brands like Nike, Kris Jones shows you how to fix that. Every Tuesday, she’s joined by marketing experts like Donald Miller (Building a StoryBrand), Shira Gill, Molly Claire, Joanna Lott, Holly Haynes, Brian Lofrumento & Elyse Archer to share simple strategies that turn your website into a client-attracting machine.

If that's you, you're not alone, and it's not your fault. The real problem isn't your design. It's your story. In this episode, I'm sharing the conversation I had on The Unforget Yourself Show with host Mark, where I break down why most websites read like an online brochure and what it actually takes to turn your site into a tool that brings in clients while you focus on your work. We talk about the single most common mistake service providers make on their websites, which is making themselves the hero of the story when the hero should always be your client. I walk through the StoryBrand framework, the ingredients of a signature story, and why getting this right doesn't require more content or a redesign. It requires a shift in how you communicate. What you'll take away from this episode: Why a beautiful website can still fail to bring in clients The difference between a brochure website and a story-driven, converting website Why you are not the hero of your own story and who is The core ingredients of a signature story that positions you as the guide How getting your story right simplifies every other piece of your marketing If you've ever thought "my website should be doing more work," this episode is the place to start.

    Ep. 71 | How AI Follow-Up Is Closing More Clients (SMS + Voice AI) with David Asarnow

    👉 Grab my Free Video & Toolkit: The Five StoryBrand Soundbites That Bring You More Clients: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/free-resources If you're getting leads but not clients, the problem probably isn't your offer. It's what happens after someone raises their hand. I sat down with David Asarnow, founder of Business Nitrogen, who has helped his clients generate over $750 million in revenue. David has a sharp eye for where the real conversion bottlenecks are hiding, and in this conversation, he got specific about the systems that move people from "interested" to "I'm in." One of his clients had 30+ people register for a live event, seven commit, and only three show up. Before fixing anything else, David fixed that. The result? A simple AI-powered SMS follow-up that asked one open-ended question and changed everything downstream. Here's what we cover: Why your show-up rate is a bigger problem than your lead quality, and what to fix first How a simple AI text message after opt-in can double event attendance without extra ad spend The way David uses voice AI to book appointments and qualify leads before a human ever gets on the phone Why making it harder to book a call with you actually improves client quality The one thing coaches and consultants should do more of to generate consistent, warm leads If you've been wondering why your funnel looks good on paper but isn't producing clients, this episode is worth a listen. Meet David Asarnow David Asarnow helps businesses bridge the gap between attention and revenue. As CEO of Business Nitrogen, he’s generated over $750 million in client revenue by building systems that convert clicks into clients through clear messaging, smart follow-up, and applied A www.davidasarnow.com www.businessnitrogen.ai Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/RealDavidAsarnow Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/realdavidasarnow Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidasarnow/ — Connect with Kris Book a Money-Making Messaging Call: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/ Download the Free Video & Toolkit: The Five StoryBrand Soundbites That Bring You More Clients: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/free-resources Instagram: https://instagram.com/reddoorstory Facebook: https://facebook.com/reddoorportland LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reddoordesigns/ Listen to the From Click to Client Podcast - 🎧 New episodes drop every Tuesday!

    Ep. 70 | 5 Real StoryBrand Website Examples That Get Clients (2026)

    👉 Grab my Free Video & Toolkit: The Five StoryBrand Soundbites That Bring You More Clients: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/free-resources Most visitors decide whether to stay on your website in about five seconds. If your hero section doesn't immediately tell them they're in the right place, they're gone before they ever read what you actually offer. In this episode, I walk through five real client wireframes live, pointing out what's working, what's not, and the specific mistakes I see coaches make over and over again. This is part one of a three-part series, and today we're focusing on the two sections that do the heaviest lifting on your entire site: the hero section and the problem section. Here's what I cover: Why your hero section functions like a freeway billboard and how to write it with that same simplicity and speed The three most common hero section mistakes coaches make (including the one that accidentally kicks your visitor out of the story entirely) Why naming only the external problem isn't enough and how to pair it with the internal problem so your visitor thinks "how does she know exactly what I'm going through?" Real wireframe examples from five actual clients, including the call to action tweak that doubled one client's assessment signups overnight A practical audit you can run on your own website right now to find the gaps If your homepage isn't converting the way you hoped, there's a good chance the answer is in these two sections. — Connect with Kris Book a Money-Making Messaging Call: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/ Download the Free Video & Toolkit: The Five StoryBrand Soundbites That Bring You More Clients: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/free-resources Instagram: https://instagram.com/reddoorstory Facebook: https://facebook.com/reddoorportland LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reddoordesigns/ Listen to the From Click to Client Podcast - 🎧 New episodes drop every Tuesday!

    👉 Grab my Free Video & Toolkit: The Five StoryBrand Soundbites That Bring You More Clients: https://www.reddoordesigns.com/free-resources If your website feels like a digital brochure instead of a client-converting tool, this episode will shift how you think about story forever. In this conversation with Rachel Feldman, I break down what a Signature Story really is and why it’s the foundation of a coaching website that actually books calls. Most coaches make themselves the hero of their own story. That’s the mistake. Your client is the hero. You are the guide. When you position yourself correctly using the StoryBrand framework, everything changes. Your messaging gets clearer. Your website builds trust. And your marketing starts working without constant posting. We also talk about: Why one core story can power your entire marketing strategy How to structure your homepage so it converts Whether coaches really need a website in 2026 Why funnels without a story fall flat If you want a website that attracts the right clients and repels the wrong ones, this episode is your starting point.
