    Progress thread - becoming a succesfull freelancer or normal life awaits

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Closed a client today. He is a local psycologist, and his ads are costing him much without any results. Agreed to do first 30 days for free, then $400/month if he is happy with the results i bring him. The meeting felt really sluggish, as always. I recorded it, so i can analyze it. Sales...

    Progress thread - becoming a succesfull freelancer or normal life awaits

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I have the day off, so goal is 70 outreach today. 55 calls and 15 emails. Have done 16 calls so far. It is mentally exhausting. Facing that much rejection in one day is brutal. Will complete it. The client i made investor pitch for likely wants me for their marketing too. Will speak to him...

    Progress thread - becoming a succesfull freelancer or normal life awaits

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    45 outreach yesterday and 12 so far today. A business I made an investor pitch for wants me for their marketing. Could be big. Also booked a meeting on Monday. Not promising as a client, but I will just help him with Google Ads on a live call, won't try to sell. Teaching something to others is...

    Progress thread - becoming a succesfull freelancer or normal life awaits

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    Just finished a meeting with a potential client. I absolutely suck at sales. I know that I really can help this business but I don't know how to express it. Like everyone else, she asked me "what will you do different from the other marketing agencies?" I don't know how to answer this. I...

    Progress thread - becoming a succesfull freelancer or normal life awaits

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I started a progress thread a year ago, but as most others, i didn't stick with it. But i haven't given up the business. A bit of context: Almost two years ago, i started helping local businesses with Google Ads. I failed many times (got fired twice) but managed to keep going. I have changed...

    [Workshop Replay] Selling Google Ads as a Service

    MARKETING SIDE HUSTLE 
    Old thread, but i wanted to share what actions i will take after watching the video: - Not be "the guy who tries too hard to sell". I'm no good salesman, and the last few meetings have been sluggish and they feel very forced. Rather than selling, i will approach the situation as a peer wanting...

    Journey to the Fastlane

    EXECUTION 
    What service is your client? Thats a good CTR and great CPC. I would recomend you have a look at "search terms" under "statistics and report" on the left hand side in google ads. It will give you insight into what search terms you actually showed for. Then you can find irrelevant ones and add...

    Journey to the Fastlane

    EXECUTION 
    Just use FrilansFinans. It is a Swedish/Norwegian service that allows you to accept payments without registering a company, nor having legal guardians. It is basically like an employer, you send the invoice, they handle all the taxes etc. Only downside is you have to pay "employer fees" of...

    Journey to the Fastlane

    EXECUTION 
    I have done a bunch of cold emails, some cold calls and for the past month i have done facebook ads. I would strongly recomend combining emails and cold calls. First send a short email (nothing fancy, just say why you are contacting and what you offer) Then, the next day you call them up and...

    Journey to the Fastlane

    EXECUTION 
    I have been in your exact position multiple times. For about 1,5 years i have been running a web design/marketing agency. Sticking to it is damn hard. You will have months of work without knowing you are doing the right thing. Sending daily cold emails without a trace of interest. I have also...

    No-code solution to my clients massive pain-point

    EXECUTION 
    I am 17, so i can tell them this is a school project, like you mentioned. The plan will be to find a few other businesses and reach out to them with an intent to give them clear value. This will also validate if the problem i'm solving is a pain-point for others as well. If i get good results...
