In this episode, Henry Lopez welcomes back referral expert Stacey Brown Randall to explore how small business owners can generate referrals naturally, without asking.

Stacey shares insights from her new book, The Referable Client Experience. She explains why great work alone doesn't create referrals, and why the emotional experience you deliver matters just as much as the deliverables themselves.

Stacey breaks down the three stages of the client experience - new, active, and alumni - and how relationship-building touchpoints in each stage make clients feel seen, supported, and confident referring you.

"Great work gets you repeat business," Stacey notes, "but relationships get you referrals."

Henry and Stacey also discuss how to identify referral "hot zones," reinforce relationships without being pushy, and create organic moments where referral seeds can be planted authentically.

Whether you're a consultant, creative, coach, or service provider, this episode will help you map your client experience, balance work vs. relationship touchpoints, and strengthen the natural referral engine inside your business.
