Our most important client is our own business.
If we go out of business then we're no longer be able to serve our market, and we're no longer able to help people.
Yes. I'm working on this too.
No need to get permission. Just add value.
"Hi. I generate leads for blacksmiths. Are you interested in buying any?"

"Hi. Are you a blacksmith? Are you based in Dublin? We have a referral of someone who wants 200 swords made. Is this something you can deal with?"

I'm also knee deep in 5 different client acquisition strategies. The sales process is different from 99% of the competitors in the space because while everyone is saying, "I offer XYZ Service. Let me know if you're interested" I'm having the services performed upfront for free(without their permission btw) to bring results to the clients in advance so they know I'm not BSing them. I think MJ did something like that with Limos.com.
The easiest sale is to perform services in advance for free so they can see with their own eyes that what you're offering can actually help them.
