<div class="bbWrapper"><b>Idea &amp; Background: Second-Specialized Unit - Creating a Freelance Web Design Business.</b><br /> <br /> Okay, I&#039;ll use this thread to start the process again and start a Web Design freelance business outside of my IT Contract. I placed a request to replace a credit card with a limit of $300 dollars. I will use this to fund the ad budget and set it to $20 dollars a day, I&#039;ll re-create the campaign using both the Facebook &amp; Instagram Platforms and post the results on this thread. Roughly $20 dollars will get you 2 leads, 5 days a week, that&#039;s 10 potential opportunities or 40 in a month. After my layoff, I have been an IT Contractor going on now 1 year and 6 months. I have been grateful to be employed this full year from March 2024 til now. I am now looking to make the switch to do something on my own.<br /> <br /> <b><u>Goals (Sales): </u></b><br /> 1. $500<br /> 2. $1,000<br /> 3. $2,000<br /> 4. $3,000<br /> 5. $4,000<br /> 5. $6,000<br /> <br /> <b><u>Business Goals (Figuring out atm):</u></b><br /> 1. To create a freelance Web Design Business that has generated $15,000 in profit after taxes to help payoff the $13,000 dollars with of debt left.<br /> 2. To create a 3-month emergency fund of $6,200 after the following above is achieved.<br /> 3. Find 2 business owners to create portfolio websites. I have one in flight that I created back in 2023 that has generated over $10,000 in sales from a German Schmear mortar business that paints a white-looking color over old red brick and stone.<br /> <br /> <b><u>Process (Finding Clients):</u></b><br /> Coming soon.<br /> <br /> <b><u>Prospect Outreach Process:</u></b><br /> 1. Send initial email &amp; text from information gathered.<br /> 2. If prospect replies, setup Initial Call/Sales conversation.<br /> -A: Call prospect to follow up based on reply and setup a sales call (when they are available).<br /> 3. Perform Sales Call.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper"><b><u>Test Experiment: </u></b><br /> <br /> I paid $93 dollars upfront to show an Ad on NextDoor for Web Design Services for the next 31 days.

The goal is to find 2 potential business prospects and create results for their business. The mindset &amp; belief section, plus the Habits &amp; Discipline were my favorite. I should have paid attention them more back in 2021 when I purchased.<br /> <br /> <b><u>Debt Journey Update (2024):</u></b><br /> I have paid off LendingClub back in May of 2024, and Capella University last month on the 27th.

The guy was foreign, definitely hard to understand, but not letting that pass me by.<br /> <br /> Their looking for someone to maintain the website/redesign. If their are changes to be made, I would receive a notification and make changes. Another web designer quoted $10,000 for the website to be made.<br /> <br /> I asked about his budget, they did not have a lot to spend, so I quoted $100 a month for maintenance and $500-$1,000 to be designed. Shooting for the $500 and this would be my first paid project. (Still looking for 2 free projects). Right now they are spending $25 a month from a guy in India. The company uses volunteers and the size is about 200.<br /> <br /> If their not happy with the experience, there will be a money-back guarantee.

<div class="bbWrapper"><b><u>Discovery Notes of Process between December 2024 - Feburary 2025:</u></b><br /> <br /> The sales process I&#039;ve followed so far:<br /> 1. Send initial email<br /> 2. Initial Call<br /> 3. Sales Call<br /> 4. Quote + Plan.<br /> <br /> Few things I&#039;ve noticed about leads from IG from the automatic placements on FB.<br /> <br /> 1. Some appear to be tire kickers and ask for price first versus actually getting on a sales call to identify problem. I try to schedule a sales call to figure out the problems they are having. The Turo business seemed to be very promising, but looked like he has updated his website on his own.<br /> <br /> 2. The more your willing to spend daily, the more leads FB will generate (assuming the offer is really good to the business owner)<br /> <br /> 3. Adding more targeted interests expands the total amount of people who can see your AD.<br /> <br /> 4. Cold calling appears to be the best outreach channel to follow up on the leads you&#039;ve generated.<br /> <br /> 5. Probably should tweak the offer and/or image to convert more people and achieve a better CTR out of the 800 that has seen my ad to generate more potential opportunities.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper"><b><u>Debt Journey Update as of March 2025: </u></b><br /> <br /> Filed my 2022 taxes using FreeTaxUSA.org, was able to claim insolvency and get the exemption to be accepted. So instead of owing $3,085. I now only owe $1,140.59 for the year of 2022 (Such a bad year for me). I filed an extension in 2023 to pay them in October of that year, but never filed until 3 years later. Learned one thing, if you ever need help, don&#039;t be afraid to ask questions. On a payment plan to pay off the taxes, should be able pay the entire thing here in the next month or so. Filed 2024, got a refund back.</div>
