    Weekly Meetup Accountability Call Megathread

    HOT! MEETUPS 
    Does this apply to skills? So if a bunch of fastlaners wanted to learn copy, I could encourage them to meet up every week and discuss how to imrpove? (I'm quite enthusiastic about copywriting) Or improve sales, or improve networking etc..

    Sahil's Web Design Accountability Thread

    EXECUTION 
    I'm gonna do an Andy Black and flip this back to you. If someone called you up with this opening line, and then reveal they aren't a client, how would you feel? (Even pretend they had an oxford accent)

    Sahil's Web Design Accountability Thread

    EXECUTION 
    There's a lot to unpick here, and I can't possibly cover it in a forum post. Now, you're gonna feel like I'm poo pooing your experience. I honestly don't intend to. The best cold call I ever got was from a guy with an Indian accent. He had me on the phone for 30 minutes. Why? He had an...

    Sahil's Web Design Accountability Thread

    EXECUTION 
    I understand your pain point about your accent. What if it wasn't as big of a factor as you currently think it is? In my experience, most people who do cold outreach have terrible scripts. And 99% of people who do cold outreach are Indian. So there's a strong reason for most people to think...

    SIDE HUSTLE EXECUTION 
    This might be irrelevant to you, but I'll tell you about myself anyway because you might find it useful. Sorry if you find it self indulgent haha. For my biz to work, I needed 3 things. Energy, fearlessness and the feeling of impending doom. Back when I started my biz, I decided to give up my...

    Cold calling 5 businesses / day till I get my next client

    EXECUTION 
    Well, got some good news. I got my next client - the invoice came through yesterday evening. It's my biggest sale ever too. Man, I need some kind of sales pipeline. I can't be doing any of this panicky "oh crap I need another client" stuff next month.

    Cold calling 5 businesses / day till I get my next client

    EXECUTION 
    Yea, so no cold calls today, sadly. Anyway, I've copied and pasted the best advice here into a Google doc, and printed it out - I'm going over it a few times to help me refine my approach for the future (is this action-faking?) Also, I need to compile more leads. The ideal lead is one who...

    Cold calling 5 businesses / day till I get my next client

    EXECUTION 
    I suppose I'm quite impatient - or I'm not building my sphere correctly. I'm a bit of a go-getter, I will go to networking events or meet local business owners face to face and build a meaningful relationship. But, I find that it takes months to nurture relationships and for people to open up...

    Cold calling 5 businesses / day till I get my next client

    EXECUTION 
    Yes, I qualify everyone I speak to to see if my services would be helpful. I check if they're appearing on Google and determine how strong thier Google Maps profile is. I've had some good success helping businesses hit #1 on Google in the past and it's helped them get leads. Some of these...

    Cold calling 5 businesses / day till I get my next client

    EXECUTION 
    I've been experimenting with a softer opening script today: "Hello, my name Ferhan. I'm a digital marketer based in [town] who works with local businesses and I just wanted to introduce myself. Is now a bad time?" This gentle approach tends to get good responses - people naturally want to...
