How to Ask for Testimonials Without Feeling Awkward

 You know testimonials matter. 

You have seen how a great quote from a real client can do more to build trust than an entire page of marketing copy. You understand that people want to hear from other people before they make a buying decision, especially now, when trust is harder to earn and everyone's radar for authenticity is higher than ever.

And yet, you are not asking for them. Or you are asking so rarely and so reluctantly that you have a fraction of the social proof your work actually deserves.

You are not alone in this.

Asking for testimonials is one of the most universally avoided tasks in business, and it is almost never because the work is not good enough. It is because the asking feels uncomfortable and like you’re imposing. Or, it feels like you are putting someone on the spot.

It does not have to feel that way. And once you have a simple approach in place, it becomes one of the easiest and most valuable things you do in your business.

Why It Feels Awkward and Why That Feeling Is Wrong

The discomfort around asking for testimonials usually comes from one of two places. 

Either you feel like you are asking for a favor, or you worry that the client will feel obligated to say something nice even if they do not genuinely mean it.

Both of those fears are worth examining. When a client has had a genuinely positive experience working with you, asking them to share that experience is not a favor. It is an invitation. Most people are happy to speak about work that helped them, especially when you make it easy and give them a clear way to do it. Many are even flattered that you asked.

Remember, your satisfied clients are already saying good things about you in private.

How To Craft Your Perfect Elevator Pitch

It can feel surprisingly hard to explain what you do in just a few sentences, especially when you're caught off guard.....

Maybe you’ve been in that moment where someone at a networking event or conference turns to you and asks, “So, what do you do?” and suddenly your brain short-circuits. You ramble, rush, or give a vague answer that doesn’t quite capture the brilliance of your work.

Most of us have been there.

And most of us have also seen the other side, too. We’ve seen the woman who introduces herself with confidence and clarity—the one whose words land effortlessly and make you want to learn more about what she does.

Here’s the thing: That kind of clarity doesn’t happen by chance. It happens when you take a few minutes to think it through before you're in the spotlight.

In this post, you’ll learn how to craft an elevator pitch that feels natural, true to your voice, and actually opens the door for real connection.

What an Elevator Pitch Is (and What It’s Not)

Let’s start by resetting expectations and learning a little bit more about what an elevator pitch actually is (and isn’t).

An elevator pitch is not:

A memorized commercial

A list of all your offers

A pressure-filled, one-shot moment to impress someone

Instead, a great elevator pitch is:

A short, clear way to describe who you help and what you help them do

A conversation starter, not a monologue

A reflection of your voice, your energy, and your brand personality

Think of it like this: if you had 30 seconds in an elevator or at a roundtable to introduce yourself, what would help someone quickly understand the kind of work you do and maybe even want to know more?

Follow the steps below to craft or refine your elevator pitch.

The Confidence Gap Is Costing You Money: How to Negotiate Like the CEO You Are

Women-owned businesses generate less revenue on average than male-owned businesses of comparable size — pricing and negotiation are a key driver. We are more likely to get challenge on our rates by clients and talked down in contract negotiations.

Investors and clients unconsciously apply different standards. Women are asked more "prevention" questions (what could go wrong?), while men get "promotion" questions (how big can this get?). This affects funding and deal outcomes.

Understand why women business owners consistently under price and over deliver and how to stop

Learn framing strategies that win better deals with clients, vendors, and partners 

Get practical tactics for holding your price, handling pushback, and closing with confidence 

Leave with a mindset shift and negotiate like the CEO you are, not like you're asking for a favor

What to Do 30 Days Before a Conference (Like ICON) to Feel Prepared and Confident

eWomenNetwork’s Annual Conference, ICON, is less than 30 days away. This article will help you begin your preparation now with clarity and intention. And best of all, the tips that we’re sharing today are universal and apply to any conference you might have on your horizon.

There are several reasons why we love preparing at the 30-day mark, but the most important is that it gives you plenty of lead time, allowing you to walk in feeling ready, clear, and energized. Remember, you don’t need to have everything perfectly planned; you just need to have a plan! .

Here is a list of what to do to get ready for a business conference around 30 days before you attend. 

Set Your Intention and Conference Goals

Before you fill in your calendar, pause and ask: What do I want this experience to do for me or my business?

Do you want to:

Grow your network? 

Gain clarity on a specific part of your brand? 

Feel inspired to level up in Q4? 

Make a bold ask or pitch? 

You don’t need to have it all figured out. But setting one or two clear intentions will help you filter the noise and focus on what matters to you. 

Try It Out: Write down your top two conference goals and keep them visible either on your phone screen, in your journal, or pinned to your mirror.

Don't have your ICON ticket yet? Get yours here!

Prep Your Brand Materials (Now, Not the Night Before)

This is the perfect time to refresh, not reinvent.

Review your current brand assets and make sure they reflect who you are today. 

Make sure you have current business cards, review your about section of your website, and make sure your social media bios clearly communicate who you are. Finally, work on your elevator pitch (and practice it in front of the mirror).

Reconnect with the powerful leader within — even if you’ve been doubting yourself

Pinpoint what’s actually holding you back (it’s usually not what you think)

Replace hesitation with intentional, confident action

Expert Advice: The Root of Your Pricing Conundrum (And How to Fix It)

Today, we are excited to welcome Markey Read, one of our Premier Success Coaches, to the eWomenNetwork blog as our guest writer. In the article below, Markey shares how to get to the root of your pricing conundrum (and how to fix it). Welcome, Markey! 

I used to think pricing was the problem—until I realized it was only the symptom.

I was convinced that if I could just help my clients “pick the right number,” everything else would fall into place.

And pricing does matter.

It’s the lever that determines whether your business supports your life—or slowly drains it.

30+ years of business have taught me two things: 

Pricing doesn’t break on its own.

It reveals what’s happening underneath.

And this is where most entrepreneurs get it wrong. It’s about being rooted in your True Nature—how your business is actually designed to grow.

Your Business Has a Natural Design

There is a quiet moment in the life of every seed—right before it breaks through the surface. There are no leaves, no visible growth, no external proof of what’s happening beneath the surface. And yet, everything that the seed needs to grow is already encoded within it. 

Your business works the same way.

From the moment you started your work—whether that was 3 years ago or 30—there was a natural intelligence embedded in it. A pattern. A design. A way your business wants to grow.

I call this your S.E.E.D. Code™.

Once you see it, you can’t unsee it. This is not a strategy or a framework you layer on top. It is the organizing intelligence beneath everything you do. And when you ignore it—or build on top of it without understanding it—your business feels heavier and more complicated than it should.

Why So Many Successful Women Undervalue Their Work

This is where pricing comes in.

Because what I see over and over again—especially with experienced women entrepreneurs—is this:

You have a deep calling to make the world a better place.

You have years (sometimes decades) of experience.

You deliver real results.

You care deeply about your clients.

And yet…

You hesitate when it comes to pricing.

You soften your language.

You over-explain your value.

You create custom offers just to make the price feel justified.

And somewhere in the back of your mind, you’re wondering…

“Why does this feel harder than it should at this level?”

Sound familiar?

One of my clients put it this way: “I felt like I had to explain every line item and justify my pricing.”

This isn’t a pricing problem; it’s a design problem.

2026 Midyear Check In: 6 Questions Every Woman Entrepreneur Should Ask Herself

The middle of the year has a way of arriving before you feel ready for it. January's goals still feel recent, but six months of decisions, pivots, and daily effort have already passed. Whether your first half was defined by momentum, by challenge, or by a mix of both, this is the moment to pause before you push forward.

A midyear reset is not about grading yourself on what you have or have not accomplished. It is about getting honest with where you are, reconnecting with where you want to go, and making intentional choices about how you spend the second half of 2026.

This set of six questions is designed to help you think clearly about your business, your brand, and yourself as a leader. Take your time with them. The answers are worth digging deep to discover. 

What Worked That You Want to Protect?

Before you look at what needs to change, start with what deserves to stay. This step gets skipped far too often. Entrepreneurs are naturally wired to focus on problems and gaps, which means the things that are actually working can go unrecognized and unprotected.

Think about the first six months honestly.

Where did your business gain traction? Which relationships deepened? What felt aligned and energizing rather than draining? Which decisions led to the results you are most proud of?

Once you identify what is working, the next step is to actively protect it. Growth has a way of pulling your attention toward new things, and without intention, the habits, relationships, and strategies that built your momentum can quietly get crowded out.

Try It Out: Write down your three biggest wins from the first half of 2026. For each one, identify the specific action or decision that made it possible. Then ask yourself whether you are still giving that action the time and attention it deserves.

50 Summer Content Ideas for Women Entrepreneurs

Summer has a rhythm of its own. The pace shifts, schedules change, and for many women entrepreneurs, there is a temptation to pull back on content and coast until fall. But summer is actually one of the best times to stay visible, precisely because so many other voices go quiet.

The businesses that keep showing up through the summer months, even at a lighter pace, are the ones that enter the fall with momentum already built. Your audience and clients do not disappear in June. They are still scrolling, reading, and looking for the people and businesses they trust.

This list is designed to make summer content feel easy. Swipe our ideas so that you never have to start from a blank page or cursor. Adapt them to fit your brand, mix them into your existing plan, or save them for the days when inspiration feels as far away as the nearest beach.

Slow Down and Strategize

Embrace the slow that comes naturally with summer. Instead of fighting it, lean into it. These content ideas are about using the quieter season to think more strategically and bring your audience along for the ride.

Share what you are using the slower summer pace to work on behind the scenes in your business.

Write about a lesson you learned in the first half of the year and how it is shaping your plans for the rest of 2026.

Post a midyear check-in. Where are you relative to the goals you set in January, and what has changed since then?

Talk about one thing you are choosing to simplify in your business this summer and why.

Share a strategic decision you are currently weighing and walk your audience through how you approach big decisions.

Offer your audience a midyear reflection prompt they can use for their own business.

Write about the difference between slowing down and falling behind, and why the two are not the same thing.

Post about a project or goal you are intentionally pausing until fall and explain your reasoning.

Share what your planning process looks like when you are preparing for a strong Q3 and Q4.

Talk about how you balance ambition with rest during the summer months and what that looks like in practice.

Personal Branding for Female Entrepreneurs Is More Than A Pretty Logo

When most female entrepreneurs hear the phrase personal branding, they think about visuals. A color palette, a logo, a polished headshot, a beautifully designed website. And while those things have their place, they are not your brand. They are the packaging.

Your personal brand is something much harder to design and much more valuable to build. It is your reputation. It is what people say about you when you are not in the room. It is the feeling someone has after working with you, after hearing you speak, after reading something you wrote. It is the reason one person gets recommended over another, even when their credentials look the same on paper.

For female entrepreneurs, especially, understanding this distinction is not just a marketing exercise. Personal branding is one of the most strategic things you can do for the long-term growth of your business.

Every Female Entrepreneur Already Has a Brand

Whether you have been intentionally building a personal brand or not, you already have one. Every interaction, every piece of content, every client experience, every conversation at a networking event has contributed to the way people perceive you and your business.

The question is not whether you have a personal brand. The question is whether the brand that exists in people's minds matches the one you want to be known for.

Many entrepreneurs discover a gap when they stop to look closely. They are known for being helpful and responsive, but they want to be known for strategic thinking.

They are known for being affordable, but they want to be known for delivering premium results. They are known locally, but they want to be known within a broader industry. Closing that gap starts with getting honest about where you are and getting specific about where you want to be.

Try It Out: Ask three people you trust professionally to describe what they think of when they think of you and your work. Do not guide their answers. Simply listen. Compare what they say with how you want to be known and notice where the two align and where they differ.

As the founder of Heart of the Hustle Studio and creator of Podcast to Payday™, she helps established business owners replace the daily content grind with a podcasting-first marketing system that builds authority, attracts clients, and drives revenue — without requiring them to be everywhere all the time.

What makes Sherry's approach different is that it's personal. Her marketing career started at age six, when her father had her selling advertising for the local playhouse — and that early lesson about the power of small businesses and the right message has driven everything since. She went on to earn a Master's degree, an Executive MBA, and a Digital Marketing certification from Yale University.

Sherry is an Amazon international bestselling author, an award-winning photographer, an ADDY Award winner, and a TEDx speaker whose talk on vulnerability and authentic connection has resonated with audiences around the world. Known as Your Marketing Mentor, she brings a no-BS teaching style and a genuine love for the business owners she works with — the kind of advisor who tells you the truth, hands you a system, and stays in your corner while you build it.

Her signature framework, the One-to-Many Content Model, teaches business owners how to turn a single podcast episode into up to 88 pieces of content across every platform their clients are already on. One recording session. No big team. No daily scramble. Just a clear, repeatable system that works.

Audiences describe Sherry as authentic, spunky, relatable, and real. Event planners describe her as the easiest speaker they've ever worked with. And her clients describe her the way she's always hoped — as the person who finally made marketing make sense.

A Pep Talk for the Woman on the Edge of Burnout

Today, we are excited to welcome Shannon Stallings, one of our Premier Success Coaches, to the eWomenNetwork blog as our guest writer. In the article below, Shannon shares an inspirational message to the woman on the edge of burnout.  Welcome, Shannon! 

Awareness is the beginning—but not the transformation.

You can read the books, listen to the podcasts, attend the events…

But if the patterns at the unconscious level aren’t shifted, you’ll continue to recreate the same results in a different form.

Have you ever found yourself in a place where there’s a quiet… yet heavy void in your heart?

A pit in your stomach you can’t quite explain?

Maybe you’ve been living behind a mask—showing up for everyone else, holding it all together, being everything to everyone… while slowly losing yourself.

From the outside, it looks like you have it all.

A successful career. A full life.

And yet… something inside feels off.

Sound familiar?

I know this place… because I’ve lived it.

There was a time in my life where everything I had worked so hard for began to fall apart. I went from success… to complete burnout.

I crashed my nervous system and stepped into the dark night of the soul……..

I lost my career.

My home.

My car.

Everything I once believed defined me.

And I found myself in what I now call my dark night of the soul.

I felt lost… unsure of where to turn.

I began numbing the pain, which only pulled me deeper—into depression, anxiety, and panic. I ended up in the hospital not knowing what was happening within my body.

Why Boundaries Are a Good Thing for Women Business Owners

Most business owners are good at saying yes. Yes to new clients, yes to opportunities, or yes to requests that stretch their time and energy in ways they did not anticipate. That willingness to show up, to help, and to go the extra mile is often what built the business in the first place.

But at a certain point, the inability to say no becomes the very thing that threatens it.

Boundaries in business are not about being difficult or unavailable. They are about protecting the time, energy, and focus you need to do your best work and to lead your business with intention. Without them, even the most talented entrepreneur will eventually find herself overextended, undervalued, and running a business that serves everyone but her.

Scope Creep Is a Boundary Problem

It often starts small. A client asks for one extra revision. A project gradually expands beyond what was originally agreed upon. A quick favor turns into an ongoing expectation. Before long, you are doing significantly more work than you are being compensated for, and the resentment that builds from that dynamic can quietly erode even your best client relationships.

Scope creep is rarely the result of a client acting in bad faith. More often, it happens because the boundaries were never clearly defined in the first place, or because they were defined but not enforced. When expectations are vague, both sides fill in the blanks with their own assumptions, and those assumptions almost never align.
