How to Land 5 Consulting Clients in 90 Days (Without Cold Pitching or Ads)

If you’re a corporate woman thinking about leaving your role to start a consulting business, this masterclass is for you.

You already have experience, judgement, and skills people would pay for. What’s missing isn’t capability - it’s clarity, evidence, and a simple path to your first clients.

This 60-minute masterclass will show you how experienced professionals land their first consulting clients within 90 days, without cold pitching, paid ads, or pretending to be someone they’re not.

This is not a motivational talk or a generic “start a business” webinar. It’s a practical session focused on clients first, not logos, websites, or social media pressure.

👩🏻‍💼 Who is this for?

This masterclass is designed for:

• Corporate women in roles such as HR, Finance, Legal, Operations, IT, Data, or Leadership
• Professionals considering consulting, advisory work, or self-employment
• Women who want a structured, realistic path to clients
• Those who prefer conversations and relationships over sales tactics

You do not need everything perfectly in place yet.

You don’t need:

• A fully polished business idea
• A finished website
• A refined personal brand
• A large or “perfect” network

You will need all of these over time but this masterclass shows you how to build them in the right order, starting with clients.

What You'll Learn

In this masterclass, you’ll learn:

• Why most smart women struggle to land clients when they first leave corporate
• The three things that actually matter when getting your first consulting clients
• How to turn your experience into a clear, credible consulting offer
• Where your first clients really come from (and why ads aren’t required)
• What a realistic 90-day client plan looks like
• The biggest mistakes to avoid when starting out

You’ll leave with clarity, confidence, and a realistic understanding of what it takes to land your first clients.

What This Is (And Isn't)

This masterclass is:

• Practical and grounded
• Focused on real-world client momentum
• Designed to support thoughtful career transitions

This masterclass is not:

• A get-rich-quick session
• A social media or influencer strategy
• A high-pressure sales presentation

🎙️ About the Host

Sandra D’Souza is the founder of Ellect, and a long-time advocate for helping women turn their experience into influence, income, and leadership.

With a background as a senior corporate leader and CFO, Sandra understands first-hand why so many capable women feel stuck when they think about leaving corporate life. It’s not a lack of skill or ambition - it’s not knowing how to package what they already know, price it with confidence, and land clients without starting from scratch.

Over the past several years, Sandra has worked with professionals across HR, finance, legal, operations, and leadership, helping them transition into consulting and advisory work in a way that feels practical, human, and sustainable. Her approach focuses on clarity over complexity, conversations over content, and confidence over hustle.

Sandra is also the author of the Amazon No. 1 bestselling book From Bias to Equality, and her work has been recognised globally for its impact on leadership and gender equality. Through Ellect and Ellepreneur, she has built a strong community of women who support one another through real conversations, referrals, and shared growth.

She believes you don’t need to become an influencer, build funnels, or follow someone else’s version of success to build a meaningful business. You just need the right structure, the right support, and the confidence to start.
