BTB Episode 45: 5 Ways to Get more Inquiries Today

Brands that Book Show

Interview with Vanessa Kynes

"Everyone has an ecosystem of vendors or clients that they can reach out to..."

Today’s episode is based on a blog post we released a few weeks ago about finding inquiries quickly. Vanessa Kynes joins me to help explore this topic and more fully develop this topic.

From the original blog post….
One of the most common reasons people reach out to me for coaching is that their bookings aren’t where they want them to be.
I often hear from people who are coming off a great year that they feel the current year is slower or that inquiries have dropped off, and they’re not sure whether or not potential clients can even find them.
There’s a sense of panic that things are falling apart, and then overwhelm because it can be hard to know where to start correcting course.
And that can be scary.
Fortunately, there are a number of practical strategies people can employ to get things back on track.
Much of this post assumes you’ve had work in the past. If you haven’t, and you’re just starting out, these tried-and-true strategies can still work, but they’ll likely take a little more time.

    Meet Davey & Krista

    We've spent 15+ years designing brands and websites for creative businesses — and paying close attention to what actually works.

    Every template we've built is informed by real client projects, real conversion data, and a deep understanding of what makes someone go from browsing to booking. We don't just design for beautiful. We design for what happens after someone lands on your page.

    That's why our templates don't just come with files. They come with the guidance to use them — writing prompts, launch checklists, and systems that take you from purchase to published.

    We also teach. Our designer courses are where we train the next generation of designers, and DesignEdit is our newsletter for working creatives who want to stay ahead of AI. All of it comes from the same place: the belief that good design should make your business feel lighter, not harder.

    we're Davey & Krista
