In this episode of the Web Design MBA Podcast, I’m diving into the Spring 2025 edition of my “How I Got My Last Five Clients” series. Instead of focusing on theory, I’m sharing the actual, behind-the-scenes details of how I landed my most recent clients—giving you real insights into the projects, the lessons learned, and how I made these connections. From an unconventional Airbnb-style booking site to a Christian apologetics ministry, I’m sharing how networking, building relationships, and sometimes even making unconventional deals have helped grow my business. Tune in to hear the specifics and grab practical lessons you can apply to your own web design journey.
