The risk taking mindset
MINDSETUsually that price-point has sold really well in the past. I've never needed to offer a guarantee. This guy was a lead from social media. He saw a case study I did, he had some numbers and proof of the value I could provide in his niche. To me, the deal was so good on paper that I was...- FJ123

The risk taking mindset
MINDSETIn England, we can be pretty pessimistic. People are scared to take risks and it makes my job of selling much more difficult. I laid out a plan for a prospect to make around £6k to £8k per month. I've done this before in his industry so I am extremely confident in the results. The fee I asked...- FJ123

Building a Business to Replace My Pilot Income
EXECUTIONGenerally, don't tell people what you're doing because it can mess with your head. If you have conviction that this is the right thing to do then go for it - focus all your energy on the objective. Just because I don't get it, doesn't mean it's the wrong thing to do. That being said... I don't...- FJ123

Weekly Progress: What will you get done this week?
GOLD! HOT! CHATMe: You said you're losing enquiries and it's costing you thousands in lost work. I propose we build out the website, add social proof, more trust signal... usual stuff...

Weekly Progress: What will you get done this week?
GOLD! HOT! CHATI also closed my first client for reels today. I will turn up once a month, film 8 reels and post on social media for the month. I priced it so low that I almost feel bad for myself. But I really enjoy filming content and figuring out the algorithm.- FJ123

Weekly Progress: What will you get done this week?
GOLD! HOT! CHATTried a new sales technique to get the price up. At the end of the call, I asked budget like usual. They said "I don't know" as most of my callers do :happy: I said... "In total, I charged X around £Y to solve the same problem". That anchored the price and it made sense to the prospect. It...- FJ123

The Agencies & Freelancers Chat Thread / Mastermind
CHATDo you get the feeling that sole traders can be quite erratic? If there's a dry season they can panic and over react? Best results I get is when the client is relaxed, not desperate and understands leads naturally go up and down. I have been dabbling with creating reels. It's fun to film these...- FJ123

CHATWith sole traders, why is £500/mo the limit on what they'll spend on a marketing guy? Despite how well they're doing? This has been my experience anyway. I feel like I need to serve bigger clients with bigger budgets.- FJ123

HOT! CHATThat happened to me in my last job even though I'm from the UK. Generally though it's quite nice. 30 days holiday, managers checking up on you etc. Biggest struggle I find here is not the government but the mindset.

Random Chat, Thoughts, Posts, and/or Rants Thread
HOT! CHATPart of the reason America is ahead of places like the UK is because they like to spend money. In the UK, we can be conservative with money meaning that we don't like to take risks. So most of us get stuck in the slow lane forever, trying to find a cheap or easy solution out of our predicament...- FJ123
