Why You're Meeting People but Still Not Getting Clients with Jaclyn Strominger

Ever left a networking event feeling like you just survived a speed-dating session with business cards? Yeah... same.

In this episode, my guest is Jaclyn Strominger, co-founder of Missing Link Network, and she’s on a mission to flip that tired script on its head.

Jaclyn isn't just a networker — she’s a business matchmaker, a giver, a connector of dots and people. We dive into her refreshing (and wildly effective) approach to relationship-building through her mastermind-style networking hubs that feel less like a pitchfest… and more like a personal board of directors rooting for your growth.

We talk about:

• Why most networking groups fail to build real relationships (and what to do instead)
• The three-part formula Jaclyn uses to create high-trust, high-value connections: People, Profit, Progress
• How accountability and intention can actually turn conversations into clients
• The mindset shift that will instantly improve how you show up in every room
• A funny, real-deal moment on why people need to stop throwing up their business pitch on strangers (seriously)

You’ll also hear how a single connection led to the launch of a whole company — proof that your next breakthrough might be sitting one handshake (or Zoom call) away.

If you're tired of playing the networking game on hard mode, this one’s your blueprint for doing it better.
