GOLD! MARKETINGCongrats on launching your agency and getting your first few clients - that's a big deal! Most people never get that far. Long story short: My wife & I set a goal back in 2011, one year into the business, that a year later we'd be living "somewhere tropical". We moved to Cozumel, Mexico in...- Sean Marshall

CHECKLIST: How to Start a Digital Marketing Agency & Hit $5K in Less than 90 Days
GOLD! MARKETINGI've said this before but cold email marketing is, in my opinion, NOT the most effective form of getting new clients. Why? Because everybody does it. Why? Because it's easy to download a list and spam 200 business owners a day. The barrier to entry is very low. If you want to do it however...- Sean Marshall

CHECKLIST: How to Start a Digital Marketing Agency & Hit $5K in Less than 90 Days
GOLD! MARKETINGI understand your concern. I also have a wife and 3 kids. Reaching $5K in 90 days is all up to your mindset. I made $2450 in my first month and I had no clue what I was doing. Certainly not a step by step course. I made more money progressively every month after that. You could make $5K in...- Sean Marshall

GOLD! MARKETINGI will never take on two clients in the same city if they're in the exact same business and in direction competition with one another. Reach out to similar businesses in other areas.

GOLD! MARKETINGI appreciate that you've tried and tried. I get it. Regardless of any of the actual cold calling strategies or whatever, you need to first change your mindset. If you're defeated, then you're not going to get any good results no matter how hard you try or whoever's sales technique you use. You...- Sean Marshall

GOLD! MARKETINGIf you're going to reach out to businesses in your own country, they must: 1. see the need 2. have the budget These might as well be commandments (like MJ's 5 commandments).
