    Anyone selling static sites for $10K+?

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    That's a pretty good idea and I thought about this before. I wanted to incorporate my company in a developed country in order to get clients worldwide and also target some of the richer companies in my own country because they seem to only trust foreigners. I supposed it's easier said that...

    I'm experienced with pretty much anything because of my past experience but I decided to use Python and Django in my own company because I didn't want to use the same stuff I used during the rat race.

    Anyone selling static sites for $10K+?

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    I actually lost a $30 website deal the other day by doing that. She was ready to go but I started talking about a ton of details until she said "You know what, I'll have to talk to my husband about this actually, let me get back to you." I usually don't talk much in day to day life but when I'm...

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    That's quite interesting. I was under the impression that one has to do as much work as possible for cheap or even free before being able to charge decent amounts of money. I'm gonna change the way I talk to my prospects and see how it goes. I got a book called Spin Selling. Any extra resources...

    Anyone selling static sites for $10K+?

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    That's exactly what many local offshore companies are doing here. Thanks to the cheap labor, they can churn out decent quality websites at 10% the cost. One of the agencies I worked at had about 10,000 clients and that number keeps growing every day. Why do you think social proof won't have a...

    Anyone selling static sites for $10K+?

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    It's actually the opposite here. Companies trust foreigners more because they have higher perceived value. The only businesses buying stuff from local agencies are the ones who are on very tight budgets and don't need quality. I'll probably be able to charge more money once I land about 100...

    Anyone selling static sites for $10K+?

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    I know there are local companies paying like $50K for their websites but it's the big offshore agencies who get these projects. As a matter of fact, I used to work at one of these agencies. I guess it's a matter of trust. I sure would like to learn how to sell properly and try to make more...

    Anyone selling static sites for $10K+?

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    It's very hard to raise my prices because I live in a poor country with very cheap labor. If I don't price competitively then someone else will. Web design pays part of my bills right now and that's good enough for me. I'm not gonna rely on this in the long term.

    I've been watching some videos on Fox School YT channel and I'm amazed at how he's selling static web pages built from cheap templates on themeforest for like $10K. And here I am selling full fledged CMS backed websites for $100 a piece. All my clients insist on having everything on their...

    How to sell services that people are unfamiliar with?

    MARKETING 
    Content marketing has been on my mind for a while now. I will prioritize it and see how it goes. I tried doing that but the level of pessimism was really high. Most of the would respond by "Oh, it works abroad but it will never work here", etc. Maybe I just got unlucky and landed on some...

    That's what I do but it's hard to sell results and benefits without real data backing up the results and benefits.

    I'm from Mauritius too. I see you work in the sugar industry and probably get minimum wage and work very long hours. The first thing would be to get your education in order. This will take a very long time I'm afraid because your work doesn't allow you any extra time for studies and you don't...

    I'm reading The Millionaire Fastlane after having read Unscripted and in chapter 2, MJ mentions that he started selling leads to people who were unfamiliar with Web leads during that time. I'm faced with this same problem right now. I sell web design and landing pages to capture leads but in my...

    Is it legal to sell modified themes?

    HOT! SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    Coding your own themes is a waste of time and clients don't care anyway. They just want a website to bring in new business. They don't even know that premade themes exist and even if they did know they wouldn't care as long as the final design matches their brand. My first 3 websites were...

    Take on a couple projects and see how it goes. Don't worry about pricing at the beginning because right now people don't trust you and will only pay the bare minimum.
