💯 I have explained all the I followed steps in this Free eBook: ✅www.superhumans.life/download-google-map-ebook/ ✅Also get my e-book 👉bit.ly/35rq2YA to have 99 Work from Home Remotely Job Sites at your finger tips with more than 100'000 jobs. The eBook explains in more depth the services I offered in the video, also additional services that could be provided as well as how to reach out via email. Here is the summary to answer some of the questions in the chat: local companies could benefit from having an optimized Google Business Profile to help them get more leads and sales. What happens is that many of these companies have not claimed their Google Business Profile and have not optimized it for search. So the base service you can offer is to help them claim and optimize it. In terms of how to actually do that, you need to first learn how to do the work by going through the Free Google training mentioned in the video. Please keep in mind that even if the service might seem simple to you, there are companies who don't have the skills to do it themselves or don't want to spend time learning about it, but could genuinely benefit from it. They just want the result. The Google training can be found here: events.withgoogle.com/mydigitalworkshop/online-training/ After you provide the base service, you can guide them to their Google Business profile from in their social media accounts or any other legitimate source of traffic they may have or that you can get them. From there assuming they are happy with your work, you can provide any other services that you have skills for and are useful to them. The video is intended to be a challenge in which I try something I have done extensively before, but instead I can learn relatively quickly. The services I provide as an example in the video might be or might not be something that you would want to do. Feel free to choose for yourself. I decided to share my experience when trying them. Also, please consider my approach, my call examples and my suggestions as ideas, part of a challenge I took on. These can be surely be improved to enable you to even make more money. Also, you might not necessarily charge the same as me, you could charge less or more. You also, don't need to call like I did, you can email instead or reach out to them in any way that is appropriate to you. Irrespective of the channel you choose, the way you speak, present yourself and your services will make a major difference to whether the client trusts you and wants to work with you, irrespective of whether you have years of experience or not. Also note that the point is to help, not spam people. In addition, like with any approach to make money, not all clients you reach out may have the money to pay or the interest to work with you. That is part of the game. The video is focused on presenting the idea, finding the clients and describing the service to offer because these are some of the most of challenging parts. I did not go into how to actually update the profiles because that is well described in the Google training. And yes, you would need to deliver the services which may take additional time, but as you get more experienced that time can reduce. Lastly, depending on how you charge, you might of course needs to pay transaction fees.
As someone building my own small business for the first time, I received so many calls from people wanting to help with my marketing, online presence, etc. I never expected it because I was such a small business. I don't think a single one ended up bringing me enough clients to pay for itself. Some claimed to be working with companies like Google, when it seemed obvious they didn't. I only say this because I probably wouldn't have given her the time of day thinking it was just another drain on my wallet. Just something to keep in mind when approaching a small business!
Which is why I like the honesty approach. Explain your talents, maybe how you're also a small business owner, and how you can help and offer a reasonable price. I wouldn't ever portray that I worked for Google, even words like "Google-trained".
Old school salesman, here, telemarketing for digital services is very challenging. No one wants to talk to someone selliing digital marketing. I get calls all the time selling SEO.
So NEVER call it digital marketing. Marketing is a dirty word. Call it "Making your business better visible for your clients", "reaching more people who are looking for your service" or something like that.
I never trusted these clowns from "digital marketing" scam 100%. For instance, they say from the very beginning SEO on Google platform to implement takes 6-12 months in order to show results. Which is true at some point. (by the time goes on you would spend $15,000 thousand basically for nothing, amount depends on how much you will be paying per month) Learn yourself and become marketing guru. You will be glad you did. By the time you're learning online/offline your business presence you're getting more knowledge about marketing and have your own unique ideas. Hire 2-3 guys or more give 'em separate plan what to do and control them. One is doing local PPC, another guy doing citations, backlinks, social marketing, direct marketing, email marketing, handling customers reviews, etc. Whatever works these days, check Google often time changing algorithm. My comments doesn't relate to SuperHumans Life. PS- Small secret of how to build your small business to be successful is do it offline. Out of internet. Have your clients/community, send 'em postcards, text messages, etc. Stay connected. You should have some partial online presence website, GMB, reviews. But concentrate mostly offline. Otherwise your small business will be in mercy of online "Big Brothers"
No one wants to talk to anyone selling anything unless they want to buy it. So isn't the salesman's job to create interest in and close a sale of a product?
Ehhhh....old school sales woman here who sold digital marketing over the phone...sold 15k in digital ads a month. The first sign of a bad sales person is a closed mind.
it would be most helpful to have heard how you speak to these businesses so we could hear their objections and how you overcame them. Also, I would like to add, you may have closed 3 businesses in a few hours, but now the work has to be done. So the question remains, what did these businesses buy from you? So how long did it take to fullfill each of these contracts? and since we were not privy to hearing you close anything, how do we know you actually did? Sorry, I am much more skeptical then your regular audience who are inspired by not getting confirmation that what you said happened, really happened.
It's sad that she never responded to these questions. She would obviously have to develop a "web presence" for each company and this usually will involve setting up a basic website (other features would cost more like ecommerce, etc.) and also increase their standings in search results. If I'm understanding correctly, she has a "team" that can help her with that. It's an interesting video but yeah there's a lot being left out as far as negotiating, closing and providing the actual services.
Completely agree. You never get anything practical from this kind of videos. It's just showing off some kind of mysterious skill that brings you to watch their videos and that's it.
That was my first though too. Okay, I understand you read the business profile guidelines/instructions and she sold a service (maybe) and said what she were selling, optimizing google to drive traffic but what exactly did she do? or have to do and how much work is that?
True that!!!! She skipped the most important part. I never saw what she sold and how she charged for it and how she handled the call. So saldrá and not being transparent.
Quick note. You can SORT the Google listings by rating! Put the worst on top and then start that way instead of going down the list the way Google presents it. That will make it easier for you and the sort feature is at the top (8:26 in the video) - it says "Ratings", "Hours", "Filters" at about the 11 o'clock position on the map portion of the screen. The "Ratings" is what you want to click to sort.
I never really paid attention that feature but that's really important if the customer is in the habit of sorting. Two other factors to consider... your search will return results by "proximity" (how close the business is to your gps location) and "sponsored" ads will always show up above any organic listing. Thanks for sharing that info.
Hey @jazzyvestin1498 I need Rating for a Shop... Will you help me?? I will pay you for that...... For every rating you will do...... I need 100 rating of USA people
Small Business owner here- interior design and general contracting. I could tell you exactly what you're doing wrong. Cold calling businesses is #1. We get so many people calling us trying to sell us crap.
You get more respect if you were transparent. Fiverr commission and fees is 25% = $525 (once the work is complete). It will take many more hours to get the info from clients and reach a final deliverable milestone. First, it requires a postcard in the mail to verify the business to claim the listing. Doing the listing work is the easy part.
Don’t start with explaining who you are and that you are google trained. If you call these people and you tell them “your google business profile is wrong or has missing information and people don’t find you/can’t call you/etc pp.” they either react or they don’t care. Cold calling is an art. And wasting small businesses precious time is a crime. Get right into the pie.
You do need to introduce yourself (otherwise it feels abrupt and people get defensive if you just call them out on the bad job they're doing), but I would sandwich it: "Hi, my name's X. I was scrolling through painters on Google Maps and noticed your profile wasn't well optimized. As you may know, most people find business through Google Maps these days so your company may be missing out on a lot of business. I offer a service to help you optimize your company's profile so it appears higher in search results so more customers can find you. Who should I talk to in your company about helping with marketing?"
I usually go with registered representatives. Faith Reece has the best performance history (in my opinion) and does offer 1v1 consultation to her capitalists which I think is amazing.
Making $800 in 4 hours was the goal, and then you ended up with $700 in negotiated sales agreements, not $700 made from 4 hours of work, as the title implies. Particularly with Fiverr, the work has to be done to the satisfaction of the buyer before money changes hands - as it should be. Only when the projects are complete (and that will be the bulk of the man-hours) will it become clear how long it took to make the $700. The achievement was in the multiple successful sales agreements in 4 hours, which stands on its own merits.
I "make $10 an hr, but I don't get paid the $10 an hr, until payday. So she made $700 in 4 hrs, but got paid later. No where in the title did she imply that she had the cash in hand, in 4 hrs.
@@lisasinclair7543 Well, no, she made exactly $0 in 4 hours. She never rendered any services and we have no idea how long it will take her to render the services she negotiated to fulfill for $700. To be honest, I'd be more interested in a follow-up video showing the rendering of the services, rather than the video I just watched.
@@lisasinclair7543 She spent 4 hours on sales calls. You're forgetting about the hours PRODUCING the websites and consulting services she contracted in the sales pitch - to multiple companies. That's what she's being paid for, a product and consulting service. Those hours are many times the sales calls for a quality product. And she won't get paid until their done. THAT'S what makes the presentation a literal scam.
@@lisasinclair7543 She didn't make $700 dollars in 4 hours though, she just got people to say they'd buy the service she offered. She still had to actually provide the services to the customers before she could collect any payments from them, which would take a lot more time (& thats only if all the customers ended up going through with the deal & they were completely satisfied with her work).
Very unique and interesting. I don't understand why you didn't include a single "successful" conversation/transaction or mention in any detail what you provided for $250.
I added more details now in the video description and the pinned comment. Hope it helps. It is actually my first challenge video. Will add more in the next ones.
@@SuperHumansLife Dont let the overly critical people get to you. It was informative and a PERFECT example of cold calling. The parts you intentionally editted out (such as the scripts used, the services provided, and examples of your final work are WAY TO VALUEABLE to give us the youtuber viewers for free. Im glad that you didnt. It helps weed out the lazy ones who just want to copy and paste your work, your scripts, and your service. We dont need MORE lazy people on fiver
I like the idea of the video, but the title is a clickbait, so I disliked the video. Why not make a realistic title and not mislead people, like "I tried making $1000 in 1 week with no skills". It's so misleading to say you made $700 after "selling" your services for $700. You didn't make $700, you are only a small step through, you still need to do the work, than make sure they pay you.
Wake up. The title says that she TRIED to make $800 in 4 hours, and she showed us HOW she tried to do that, and what her experience was. If you are paying attention, you can learn some things. Thanks to the creator for taking her time to make this video.
This was interesting. I live in the US, and l knew right from the start you were going to be walking in quicksand with this one. Businesses in small towns and cities have problems staying afloat as it is, they usually want nothing to do with outsiders, especially those calling from other countries. Too many scammers from India call trying to get any nickel and dime they can from anyone they can.
We have the same problem here in the UK… they use local numbers to get through… I usually string them along or tell them I’m naked with a huge erection and ask them what they are wearing…. Usually does the trick
Some comments seem to think you were lying, but I don't think so. I've seen other videos on this and what people are missing is that you do more than just filling the Google blanks. You should actually go to the business and post various photos of the shop, the people, the manager and so forth. This is not a business for introverts. But, like any sales job, you have to knock on a lot of doors. Great presentation. 😊
@@figgyboy37 Exactly. People who are in business selling there services are actually very bad at advertising their businesses. #facts and I also I have witnessed (in- person) my sister ( she owns her own cleaning service) receive a phone call from some guy, saying he can help her get more clients by claiming her business on all the business listing platforms and optimize her SEO, create a website, etc. and guess what? She gave him a shot & her charged her $250.00. Soooo....😌
You didn't make 700$ in 4 hours. You made the sales, but you still have to produce and deliver the service, invoice the clients, file and pay your taxes, etc., etc. A lot of more hours of work. But as many others have commented, I really appreciate the transparence of the process you show. That is exactly how it is running a business or being a freelancer. You just never quite, you have to learn, create opportunities, have ideas, communicate, manage money and people, all at the same time. Inspiring!
I think she effectively proved how any situation has it challenges. This is why having eye toward big picture is so important because if you don't have it you will get swallowed up fairly quickly.
I personally, as a consumer and business owner, find cold-call sales pitches and door-to-door sales to be quite unpleasant and time-burners. These sales tactics often involve the salesperson pointing out the negatives about your business and persistently trying to convince you that you need their services. I do not want to hear that I am failing at marketing my business, even if it may be true. This type of experience can feel similar to dealing with a used car salesperson, with their constant questioning and attempts to prove the necessity of their services. They simply will not take no for an answer. When I feel it's necessary, I would rather take my time to research and vet any potential service providers myself, instead of having someone waste my time with a pre-prepared and scripted sales pitch. Additionally, I feel that salespeople can come across as fake, deceptive, and manipulative.
That is a tremendous amount of hustle. You literally learned a new business, in a new market, using new tools -- in 4 Hours -- and actually managed to get some sales. That's fantastic!
@@tamasdmmolnar9450she's selling Google listing services to improve other companies visibility. Only issue is I highly doubt she got 3 credit cards for $200 ea on these random cold calls. She probably just got 3 "bookings" with payment assumed in the future.
That was just awesome of you! A couple of quick takeaways - when I googled the course I only got a few basic ones, not the one you showed. Consider putting the leads in a spreadsheet. Don't pitch the gatekeeper.
When I was running a small business doing apartment/building maintenance, all my work came from referrals, and I imagine in a small town most people will know all the folks who sell services. I’d say that your best bet would be larger towns that have a regular changeover of people and those people have a need to find people that they don’t already have contact with. I liked the point made when you started to try and contact people that you couldn’t because they had no contact details listed.
Hi unlike other commenters I do NOT believe it was a fail at all. I believe it was a major success!! I mean in FOUR hours you went from basically nothing to over $600! In my estimation that is a great success especially considering now you had everything setup and ready to make a LOT more money, not to mention you taught many of us how it's done! Thank-you!
considering how that money was made, its a big fail, cause im calling it lieing and scamming " im a google trained blabla, i help buisnesses to..." after she read something for 42mins?" trying to tell she is a professional in what she is trying to sell... after 42mins of reading, never tried or tested what the read i dont know about that... if you would sell that service to me and then after paying i find out the words you used to sell ur service/get my money just meant you were reading stuff for 42mins "i learned something in 1 hour, never tried or tested it, and i want you to pay me for it"
@@brokenworld542 I disagree with that comment. Even tho she just learned that skill, she is legitimately HELPING people. And the fact of it being a challenge and test against time is of no concern to the customers, because she isn’t scamming or robbing them or anything. The only lies are convincing people she has been doing that as a job already , and she knows what she’s doing. A business isn’t going to trust someone that says “hey I just read about how to help your business like 2 hours ago so will you pay me to see if I can do it ?” And service always has a price everyone knows that. The intentions here are very good, as long as somebody doesn’t take this advice and use it to just benefit themselves to get money from people without a care. To do this the right way and actually help people as a new job type thing to raise money….nothing wrong with that. Aside from the tons of scams and lies people get in their email, text, and calls, it’s actually heartwarming for me to see this because I know several people who opened up small businesses in small towns and finding out how to help them increase their discoverability and sales is exciting!!
@@christinakinnear8239 "The only lies are convincing people she has been doing that as a job already , and she knows what she’s doing." - THE ONLY LIES... the only one lie or the lies? i dont know what the only lies means?! still lies in the end... you cant get 250$ for 42mins of reading + some clicking, its just not right to charge that much if you are a newbie, be honest and charge fair amount. i wanna see the work that was done for these 250$ specially small buisness may prefer to do this at their own, if they would know you are charging this 250$ for something you can learn in breaktime. they expect to get a professional service for the 250$ they invest in you, but they get something everyone can do in breaktime. 50$ would be realistic for a newbie service. but when you charge 250$ for the "professional 42min to learn service" you provide, you are just scamming ;)
Major props to you for being transparent. What you experienced was spot on. As dedicated entrepreneurs and business minded people, we don't quit. I just started following your page.
Business minded people do not run round calling people looking for jobs. We make more money with our time than is possible doing that. I can make more money in an hour just sending some pics to my customers in messenger than most people make in a week. i used to live on 200 dollars a month, now i can do 20,000, and it was not by following these methods that i got where i am now

This was my problem starting a business selling products online. I went with the idea of if it’s too low quality for me then I am not selling it. Spent thousands of dollars on samples then realized, I might need to make my own product to find the quality I need for the price my projected customer base can afford.
Cold calling small business is tough. It's a numbers game but every time you repeat your script, you start to make it your own and adapt in the moment.
I attempted one of those SMMA courses, but ended up getting a refund. However...what was mentioned in the video about getting your business on Google was spot on. I was working for a doctor who at the time recently put up a website. I took what I learned from the first few videos I watched in the SMMA course to help optimize the doctor's website and get the business listed on Google. Definitely YES, you get more customers when you claim your business. Local customers absolutely want to find and work with local businesses. Great info!!
@@beemerkon Calm down. I didn't finished the course. Hence, I mentioned I watched only a few videos. Stop acting all high and mighty like you never bought and used something only to realize it wasn't a good fit for you where you returned it and got a refund. If you lie that you have never done so, then honey, you need to repent.
Sister you are doing well you just earned another subscriber you literally show us what it means to start an online service and the cost to land a client and not some people that just promise you easy going and then you get confused ❤
Wow! What an inspiration! I’ve been procrastinating for weeks to start my own service based business and here you are done it in 4 hrs! 😂 You’re my hero! ❤ I’m jumping on the phone and Fiverr! 😂
Did you make any money yet? How much were you able to make? I would never normally ask questions like this under normal circumstances because it would be very rude, but that is the point of this video in supposedly helping people make money fast, and it would definitely help all the rest of us know if it’s a legit way to make money or a sham. Either way if uncomfortable to answer no worries. :)
I'm super pleased with this video because it's not one of those super scketchy "Make a million dollars in ten seconds" you usually find everywhere in TH-cam. I love that you not only explain the process but also the results an tools you use to get yourself closer to that $800 goal. I find it very inspiring and will try it out myself after reading the guide you also provide us. Thank you very much for this! Greetings from Venezuela.
This was perfect! Just what I needed. I been running my trucking company for going on 4 years. I started out grossing 6 figures out the gate, but didn’t have no structure with allocations and the pandemic really shut down my business. Thanks VRI Token for getting me approved for a grants after several denials and with what you just taught me this is a true game changer that’s fixing to take my trucking company to next level. Thank you!
This video seems misleading in a lot of senses, just before creating the fiverr account she didnt sell anything, in an hour or so she created the fiverr account and managed to sell to three businesses? I am not sure how this works out. Anyways kudos if you are a superhuman. Cheers
I have to toally commend you for your courage to get this started. I know from experience that it takes some brass nuts to source and call businesses to sell a service using just the phone. Well done, looking forward to seeing many more of your videos!
Definitely do a follow up video. As a sales person I think it was good for you to show that it is not easy to cold call and get instant results. Many of the answers need further follow ups and I would be interested to see what you are doing for the three companies to keep them at the top of a search list. Thanks for sharing.
This was actually extremely impressive. So many people procrastinate or don't believe that they really can earn money that easily simply by doing sales calls on the phone which I find people are terrified of for some reason.
Because for every guillible fool that do this for a living (for a penny), 1000 other dudes/dudettes do the same thing but with a twist, they scam people over phone calls (especially old people)
I consider the people that call me to solicit products to be the lowest human beings on the planet. They come into my personal time and space to push their garbage…. Shame on that sales tactic…. I have never, and will never give money to a phone solicitor….
Wonderful video, thanks for sharing this with us! As an aside, something to keep in mind is that the majority of people in the US, especially businesses with publicly listed numbers, will be getting tens or even hundreds of spam calls a day from e.g. telescammers in India, so they will be HIGHLY suspicious of anyone with a foreign accent calling them and offering services. As such, if you're an entrepreneur and have a strong accent, you may want to consider hiring a friend or someone to make the phone calls and offering them a small part of the profits, while you do all of the behind-the-scenes work of figuring out who to call, what to offer, providing the caller(s) with a script, etc. Just something worth considering if you feel like you're doing a good job but still getting a lot of rejections.
I really appreciate the honesty in this video. I think it's important for people to see the challenges firsthand that come up. Most side Hustle videos show "How Easy" they are to do and not the difficulties that will arise.
The time it takes to create an account on fiverr and make gigs then getting the clients take days .I'm working on fiverr since 2020. its clear she's lying about making that amount of money in that time
Some people don’t understand that TH-cam like social media is a stage. You acted out a part and the answers given to the “I can do betters” show your class. Congrats!
Wow, Thank you so much Lara. This was so inspiring as on-line work has felt like a nightmare to me and you actually made it look normal, every other post never shows any glitches only "sunshine" however, you showed that things do not always go the way you wanted and you just went with the punches and made a new plan.
That was a fun video to watch. I really wish we could have heard more of the phone call. The art of selling happens on the call lol. I really hope you make another video like this one. I knew you were great already, but now you’re amazing in my eyes! It takes a lot of courage to make a call and try to close the deal on the phone.
Maybe what was promised was to get fake reviews written. Apart from owner profile, what else can you do? Also many others asked and she didn't answer which makes me think click-bait.
Pro tip for speaking: Never use the word "what" unless you are asking a question. Turn "What you wanna do is start..." into "Start..." or "Now start..." and all the related filler phrases like "What I'm going to do now is I'm going to...".
I really appreciated your transparency in making this video! Watching you do this, helped me to realize that I can do this too! And thank you So much for posting the Google Business course link!
you'll likely spend more than 80 hours doing all of the projects associated with these agreements she made, thats including the time spent trying to convince the small businesses to actually go through with the proposed project she has to design and setup. don't forget they can still decline the deals.
Sounds good. But i would like to see the final services you offered to the clients. Did you do consulting or hands on? The pdf is more general and doesn't outline what you did specifically to fulfill the orders. A part 2 video to address the many questions viewers have would be cool. Thank you. ❤
You said you're not going to use your previous skills, but then you created a Fiverr account and said you can do this quickly because you know how to do it from your experience :) Then you made me watch this video and I didn't get any info or didn't see how you got those 3 clients. All in all, not a good video because you're just looking for views...
Great video! 👍🏻I don't know how I got here but I love your honesty. I would say you did not win the challenge however you were able to create/decide on what to do, open a small business and get your first customers in four hours! Very well done!!!🎉🎉🎉❤
Excellent video. Your goal was $800, and you sold $700. There are automated tools and software out there to find the business info you needed, but you did it manually, starting from Zip within four hours. That's rather incredible and instructive. Way to go!
This was a great example to show people how to lie confidently and make money from youtube. She basically lied and I will tell you now: 1. She could make call saying this phone call is being recorded for educational and improvement purpose and she could easily gave us the conversation. 2. She could easily show us Fiverr negotiation part which she didn't. We are now kind of used to this kind of liars everyday of our life.
Thumbs up for showing a 'realistic' approach. Just a question: When a client is interested, how do you proceed with the account creation? Have them create the account themselves and request permission to add you as a 'manager' or create it yourself with your company account and assign them afterwards as the primary owner? (if that's an option)
She said you can do it without any skills, or experience, and that she can't use those.Yet, if you watch the part where she fills in her profile for Fiverr, you can see she said she studied at a university, have 5 years experience, and done 7k+ projects...
Depends on the person. I focused on the parts that I thought were most useful to get the clients because I felt that what you actually optimize in the profile is described in the Google training.
Very good. As people say in comments, yes, she did not show the actual work hours she would put additionally to complete the task / project. But, on the other hand, her 4 hours included her education (study) to work with Google maps and how to actually do the job. So, no idea about the quality of work to be done, but we already see good learning, interpersonal skills and salesmanship.
I find this 'exercise' absolutely amazing. And the fact it 'didn't work' at first, actually made it way more interesting and an 'interactive' learning experience, than it would have otherwise. Of course the problem is that this 'market' is gonna get saturated very fast, i guess, but i was amazed by how easy it was, compare to some of my struggle i face at work EVERY DAY FOR MUCH LESS A PAY. Knowing about those opportunities out there is really what make the difference between "street' smart and college smart.
A lot of SEO agencies and individual workers already do cold-calling to various companies and pitching their services, promising first page Google rankings, offering web design/development, social media marketing, etc. A lot of these workers are Indians who are doing it. Most companies get bombarded with all these cold-calls and pitches daily that they just ignore them. LOL
This is true, but when you make a local phone call and you are Familiar with the business as you do your homework before you call them and let them know what they need. And also be willing to meet up with them changes the game.
@@fullofgraceandtruth85 Exactly, you have a higher chance of success firstly if you sound intellectual and very knowledgeable in what you are pitching. Come across polite and friendly. And do not have an accent that people do not easily trust when receiving a sales call. Asian sounding accents (like India for e.g.) or African sounding accents too, are not easily trusted because a highly level of "over the phone scams", have accents from these areas. And let no one go taking offence because I am African and have witnessed this first hand from both people I met and scam busters I watch online.
Amazing challenge and even better execution! Thank you for this! Here is an issue I run into and hope you can give me a pointer: When you claim their businesses, do you use YOUR email address or theirs? If you use theirs, how do you make them click all the confirmation links that get sent to them, so you can actually get things done? And if you use your address, how would they have access to their business profile later? (Or is that the idea, that they now have to come to you for everything? But then how do they receive their customer requests?)
My answer to that would be create a custom email for them and use it during the setup. Then once the job js done, you can change it to their work email and verify it only one time.
Sorry. Problem solving: Skill you already had. Phone calls: skill you already had. Collaborating, etc. 😁 Anyway, better luck next time. Great walk through. It was helpful seeing and hearing your planning and follow through.
You have a new subscriber today, for your honest transparency alone. I am impressed that you got as far as you did (especially cold calling) in just four hrs. I'm tired of these "make a zillion $$ in 15 minutes" videos! You offer a real service; one that's more ongoing than the "hit and run" stuff you usually see. What's more, I learned a lot!
Thank you for taking the time to share this information with us. I really enjoyed watching your video. I look forward to watching more of your videos soon. You did a wonderful job!
In my eyes you didn’t fail at all. You are quite amazing. I wish I had your skills, energy and motivation. I worked for myself as a CMT for 17 years. Because of a shoulder injury I have to change my line of work. I have no idea what to start looking into for work. I think you did an awesome job in this video!
so you spent 3 hours doing a google maps thing that absolutely failed, and about 15 minutes of this video, said screw it, went to fiverr and called companies about making them a website
Hi there! This is the first video of yours that I've come across, and I must say, I'm quite impressed. The way you present information is not only easy to understand but also incredibly helpful in guiding me through the process of creating my own plan to see if it works for me. Thank you for creating content like this. I've subscribed to your channel and look forward to watching your other videos. I hope to gain more valuable insights into the online business industry. Cheers!
I'm appreciating the honesty of the struggles and how not everyone has a number, will answer, will buy, etc. The other thing is she still has to deliver on those sales, so the real start to finish timeline will take a couple days: the sales part is done, the "real finish line" is a couple days away yet. The real growth opportunity after planting this seed is GROWING the business & getting a pipeline of referrals. Small biz owners know other small biz owners.
Great video! Had no ideas there were courses in google for free. I’ve been wanting to start a local directory website for my town as we don’t have one where I live. They rely solely on word of mouth and the local Facebook group ! Meanwhile most businesses close within 2 years of opening if that. I would love to offer this as a service to them. Thank you!!
how did you manage to get them to agree to pay 200 dollars for a 'service'? like, exactly what service did you even offer to provide? you can't even show pictures or videos through the phone... why would people just accept to pay so much for this
Hey lady, I've just started watching but I already have a very good impression of you - the confidence you exude walking in the dark without a light! I'm going to comment again at the end. Ride on!
I made $10,000 in 2h !!!! I called 100 neighbors in 2h, and offered them to clean their houses 7h/day for 2 weeks for just $200. 50 of them accepted, so I made $10,000 in 2h !!!!
Maybe what was promised was to get fake reviews written. Apart from owner profile, what else can you do? Also many others asked and she didn't answer which makes me think click-bait.
@@SuperHumansLife I watched the video twice and I can't see that you did. This video shows you how to identify leads, not what you did for these clients or whether it justifies the cost to them.
I stumbled across your video and instantly knew this was made for me. I'm going through the same thing with my business but just knowing that I'm not the only one who's experienced this just pushes me to go harder. Continue to put out informational content and sharing your story, THAT is what separates you from the rest. Much gratitude sir and *vri token* was so helpful during the process of getting my grant approved.
"Fascinating challenge! I'm impressed by your strategic approach to making $800 in just 4 hours using Google Maps. The use of Google Trends to gauge demand is a clever move. Looking forward to seeing the follow-up and how your calls to potential clients pan out. Keep up the great work! 💪🌐
Your explanations are concise and practical. I've watched numerous videos on trading, but I haven't made much progress due to the confusing information or stories of personal success. Could you recommend a reliable trading coach who can provide clear guidance?
I am aware that continuing to invest during periods of volatility can be a smart way to build wealth. I've heard testimonies of people accruing over $250k in this red period. What measures can I take to achieve this?
Good video, but it creates many questions. 1. What did you offer? You should show examples, what they will have after your work (before-after). 2. We didn’t hear your conversation. It’s very important to right introduce yourself by call.
It sounded like bs. She has an accent. She paused while even telling them her made up company name. She sounded like the scam calls I get. Would you have bought anything from her?
This was interesting… so basically anyone can do this from home with little to no experience. Is it a one and done thing for each client or is there any further contact or maintenance down the road that you need to do for them that could possibly make you more money from each client.
I Mean looks like you went to quite a struggle to get 3 commissions in 4 hours, that you then will have to deliver, and who knows how long it will take. At the end of the day the $$ per hour will be highly volatile and probably not great. Probably a decent gig if you're unemployed and sitting on the couch otherwise.
But even if it is her only income: $700/day (she spends 4 hours getting the clients + 4 hours providing the promised service), times 20 working days a month is $14,000 income per month. Pretty nice income I’d say! Wouldn’t you?
Despite all the negative naysayers’ comments on here, I got you and see that you really tried hard, and I commend you for that. Your headline said “I tried Making $800 in 4 Hours…. With the definitive word meaning ‘Tried’ therefore you told the truth. Cold-calling B2B is not easy and takes guts and I can tell by your voice that the extremely short deadline you gave yourself eventually stressed you out, but I can also see that you were honest in your intentions of giving the truth of the outcome. Your efforts touched on a good idea unrelated to what you were showing that I was looking for and I appreciate you for it. Keep up your good intentions and never give up, despite the negative naysayers commenting here and in your life. I appreciate you and thank you. You got me for a subscriber looking forward to your next podcast. Always be well.
You did not explain what kind of services do you sell? How can you improve the ranking in Google at your costumers, what do you do in detail, this would be interesting, find costumers and call them seems to be easy, but the product is the key and I know nothing about it when I see this video:) 17:57
I like the honesty, the work you put into this and as a small youtuber that knows how much work it is to make and edit the video, of course the work you put into this video. Thank you! Subscribed and liked🥰
Wow I never see before a challenge like this in Make money online niche on TH-cam. I think if you continue with this way you will get more subscribers because there's many people on TH-cam searching content like this but do not find it.
💯 I have explained all the I followed steps in this Free eBook: ✅www.superhumans.life/download-google-map-ebook/ ✅Also get my e-book 👉bit.ly/35rq2YA to have 99 Work from Home Remotely Job Sites at your finger tips with more than 100'000 jobs.
The eBook explains in more depth the services I offered in the video, also additional services that could be provided as well as how to reach out via email.
Here is the summary to answer some of the questions in the chat: local companies could benefit from having an optimized Google Business Profile to help them get more leads and sales. What happens is that many of these companies have not claimed their Google Business Profile and have not optimized it for search. So the base service you can offer is to help them claim and optimize it.
In terms of how to actually do that, you need to first learn how to do the work by going through the Free Google training mentioned in the video. Please keep in mind that even if the service might seem simple to you, there are companies who don't have the skills to do it themselves or don't want to spend time learning about it, but could genuinely benefit from it. They just want the result. The Google training can be found here: events.withgoogle.com/mydigitalworkshop/online-training/
After you provide the base service, you can guide them to their Google Business profile from in their social media accounts or any other legitimate source of traffic they may have or that you can get them. From there assuming they are happy with your work, you can provide any other services that you have skills for and are useful to them.
The video is intended to be a challenge in which I try something I have done extensively before, but instead I can learn relatively quickly. The services I provide as an example in the video might be or might not be something that you would want to do. Feel free to choose for yourself. I decided to share my experience when trying them. Also, please consider my approach, my call examples and my suggestions as ideas, part of a challenge I took on. These can be surely be improved to enable you to even make more money.
Also, you might not necessarily charge the same as me, you could charge less or more. You also, don't need to call like I did, you can email instead or reach out to them in any way that is appropriate to you. Irrespective of the channel you choose, the way you speak, present yourself and your services will make a major difference to whether the client trusts you and wants to work with you, irrespective of whether you have years of experience or not. Also note that the point is to help, not spam people. In addition, like with any approach to make money, not all clients you reach out may have the money to pay or the interest to work with you. That is part of the game.
The video is focused on presenting the idea, finding the clients and describing the service to offer because these are some of the most of challenging parts. I did not go into how to actually update the profiles because that is well described in the Google training.
And yes, you would need to deliver the services which may take additional time, but as you get more experienced that time can reduce. Lastly, depending on how you charge, you might of course needs to pay transaction fees.
Dear Laura
I wish I could work with you every day .🎉
It’s really nice Thanks 🙏 you
Can i work in Pakistan?
Can you please help me and share my go fund me please 🙏🏾
Thank you for the information. I think someone cloned your video using AI. I found it here -> th-cam.com/video/wEHLJir98NE/w-d-xo.html
As someone building my own small business for the first time, I received so many calls from people wanting to help with my marketing, online presence, etc. I never expected it because I was such a small business. I don't think a single one ended up bringing me enough clients to pay for itself. Some claimed to be working with companies like Google, when it seemed obvious they didn't. I only say this because I probably wouldn't have given her the time of day thinking it was just another drain on my wallet. Just something to keep in mind when approaching a small business!
how much did youtube pay you to say that and to look at this video
@@old-royking LOL, you seriously think TH-cam PAYS people for comments? Where do we all get hired for that? delusional much?

@@brianmi40 I too would like this job.
Which is why I like the honesty approach. Explain your talents, maybe how you're also a small business owner, and how you can help and offer a reasonable price. I wouldn't ever portray that I worked for Google, even words like "Google-trained".
She actually made the money in 4 hours from this video with the help of her 'team'
🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
withe help of us😅😢
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
As far as I can see, she didn't make any sales.
Old school salesman, here, telemarketing for digital services is very challenging. No one wants to talk to someone selliing digital marketing. I get calls all the time selling SEO.
So NEVER call it digital marketing. Marketing is a dirty word. Call it "Making your business better visible for your clients", "reaching more people who are looking for your service" or something like that.
I never trusted these clowns from "digital marketing" scam 100%. For instance, they say from the very beginning SEO on Google platform to implement takes 6-12 months in order to show results. Which is true at some point. (by the time goes on you would spend $15,000 thousand basically for nothing, amount depends on how much you will be paying per month) Learn yourself and become marketing guru. You will be glad you did. By the time you're learning online/offline your business presence you're getting more knowledge about marketing and have your own unique ideas. Hire 2-3 guys or more give 'em separate plan what to do and control them. One is doing local PPC, another guy doing citations, backlinks, social marketing, direct marketing, email marketing, handling customers reviews, etc. Whatever works these days, check Google often time changing algorithm. My comments doesn't relate to SuperHumans Life. PS- Small secret of how to build your small business to be successful is do it offline. Out of internet. Have your clients/community, send 'em postcards, text messages, etc. Stay connected. You should have some partial online presence website, GMB, reviews. But concentrate mostly offline. Otherwise your small business will be in mercy of online "Big Brothers"
No one wants to talk to anyone selling anything unless they want to buy it. So isn't the salesman's job to create interest in and close a sale of a product?
Ehhhh....old school sales woman here who sold digital marketing over the phone...sold 15k in digital ads a month.
The first sign of a bad sales person is a closed mind.
@@wandaad LOL. They will find out what it really is.
it would be most helpful to have heard how you speak to these businesses so we could hear their objections and how you overcame them. Also, I would like to add, you may have closed 3 businesses in a few hours, but now the work has to be done. So the question remains, what did these businesses buy from you? So how long did it take to fullfill each of these contracts?
and since we were not privy to hearing you close anything, how do we know you actually did? Sorry, I am much more skeptical then your regular audience who are inspired by not getting confirmation that what you said happened, really happened.
Yeah i had same thought
It's sad that she never responded to these questions. She would obviously have to develop a "web presence" for each company and this usually will involve setting up a basic website (other features would cost more like ecommerce, etc.) and also increase their standings in search results. If I'm understanding correctly, she has a "team" that can help her with that. It's an interesting video but yeah there's a lot being left out as far as negotiating, closing and providing the actual services.
Completely agree. You never get anything practical from this kind of videos. It's just showing off some kind of mysterious skill that brings you to watch their videos and that's it.
That was my first though too. Okay, I understand you read the business profile guidelines/instructions and she sold a service (maybe) and said what she were selling, optimizing google to drive traffic but what exactly did she do? or have to do and how much work is that?
True that!!!! She skipped the most important part. I never saw what she sold and how she charged for it and how she handled the call. So saldrá and not being transparent.
Quick note. You can SORT the Google listings by rating! Put the worst on top and then start that way instead of going down the list the way Google presents it. That will make it easier for you and the sort feature is at the top (8:26 in the video) - it says "Ratings", "Hours", "Filters" at about the 11 o'clock position on the map portion of the screen. The "Ratings" is what you want to click to sort.
That just picks the minimum stars. Not a sort
I never really paid attention that feature but that's really important if the customer is in the habit of sorting. Two other factors to consider... your search will return results by "proximity" (how close the business is to your gps location) and "sponsored" ads will always show up above any organic listing. Thanks for sharing that info.
@@FasterthanSpeed414 You'll need to sort by 4.5 star and up to get the highest rated listing closest to your location.
Sometimes low star ratings are there for a reason, and you dont really want to do business with those people..
Hey @jazzyvestin1498 I need Rating for a Shop... Will you help me??
I will pay you for that...... For every rating you will do...... I need 100 rating of USA people
Small Business owner here- interior design and general contracting. I could tell you exactly what you're doing wrong. Cold calling businesses is #1. We get so many people calling us trying to sell us crap.
So what would you suggest doing instead?
@@KevinVenturePhilippines I suggest you get a real job.
You get more respect if you were transparent. Fiverr commission and fees is 25% = $525 (once the work is complete). It will take many more hours to get the info from clients and reach a final deliverable milestone. First, it requires a postcard in the mail to verify the business to claim the listing. Doing the listing work is the easy part.
Exactly this, she made nothing in 4 hours, she just got the leads to make money if she delivers and gets paid...
@irweezyy and how much time does she need to spend to deliver, so how much is she making an hour
Can we get verified by text message?
Wow big ups to you for honesty and transparency👍👍
Nope the verification doesn't require a postcard anymore.
Don’t start with explaining who you are and that you are google trained. If you call these people and you tell them “your google business profile is wrong or has missing information and people don’t find you/can’t call you/etc pp.” they either react or they don’t care. Cold calling is an art. And wasting small businesses precious time is a crime. Get right into the pie.
This ⬆️ I agree 100% My exact thoughts.
Do u have a sales call.ex. of how you would do it? I agree.. cold calls are hard! I usually hang up!
Thanks for the tip. I did not spend a lot of time to prepare. I am sure people who call more often can do it much better than me.
You do need to introduce yourself (otherwise it feels abrupt and people get defensive if you just call them out on the bad job they're doing), but I would sandwich it:
"Hi, my name's X. I was scrolling through painters on Google Maps and noticed your profile wasn't well optimized. As you may know, most people find business through Google Maps these days so your company may be missing out on a lot of business. I offer a service to help you optimize your company's profile so it appears higher in search results so more customers can find you. Who should I talk to in your company about helping with marketing?"
@@emma70707 tht sounds great!
Not bad... I'll definitely give you points for authenticity and showing us the reality of these digital enterprises. Thanks
It's wise to seek professional guidance when building a strong financial portfolio due to it's complexity.
I usually go with registered representatives. Faith Reece has the best performance history (in my opinion) and does offer 1v1 consultation to her capitalists which I think is amazing.
Wow.... She has really made good name for herself, she's also my account manager
Talking to an expert like Faith Reece to reshape your portfolio is a very smart move
Since meeting Expert Faith, I now agree that with an expert managing your portfolio, the rate of profit is high, with less risk.
Making $800 in 4 hours was the goal, and then you ended up with $700 in negotiated sales agreements, not $700 made from 4 hours of work, as the title implies. Particularly with Fiverr, the work has to be done to the satisfaction of the buyer before money changes hands - as it should be. Only when the projects are complete (and that will be the bulk of the man-hours) will it become clear how long it took to make the $700. The achievement was in the multiple successful sales agreements in 4 hours, which stands on its own merits.
I "make $10 an hr, but I don't get paid the $10 an hr, until payday. So she made $700 in 4 hrs, but got paid later. No where in the title did she imply that she had the cash in hand, in 4 hrs.
@@lisasinclair7543 Well, no, she made exactly $0 in 4 hours. She never rendered any services and we have no idea how long it will take her to render the services she negotiated to fulfill for $700. To be honest, I'd be more interested in a follow-up video showing the rendering of the services, rather than the video I just watched.
@@lisasinclair7543 She spent 4 hours on sales calls. You're forgetting about the hours PRODUCING the websites and consulting services she contracted in the sales pitch - to multiple companies. That's what she's being paid for, a product and consulting service. Those hours are many times the sales calls for a quality product. And she won't get paid until their done. THAT'S what makes the presentation a literal scam.
@@lisasinclair7543no she hasn't finished her work
@@lisasinclair7543 She didn't make $700 dollars in 4 hours though, she just got people to say they'd buy the service she offered. She still had to actually provide the services to the customers before she could collect any payments from them, which would take a lot more time (& thats only if all the customers ended up going through with the deal & they were completely satisfied with her work).
Very unique and interesting. I don't understand why you didn't include a single "successful" conversation/transaction or mention in any detail what you provided for $250.
I was thinking that too. Sounds fishy.
Because that critical detail is what she's going to try to sell to you, the viewer.
I added more details now in the video description and the pinned comment. Hope it helps. It is actually my first challenge video. Will add more in the next ones.
Yeah I don’t buy it lol
@@SuperHumansLife Dont let the overly critical people get to you. It was informative and a PERFECT example of cold calling.
The parts you intentionally editted out (such as the scripts used, the services provided, and examples of your final work are WAY TO VALUEABLE to give us the youtuber viewers for free. Im glad that you didnt. It helps weed out the lazy ones who just want to copy and paste your work, your scripts, and your service.
We dont need MORE lazy people on fiver
I like the idea of the video, but the title is a clickbait, so I disliked the video.
Why not make a realistic title and not mislead people, like "I tried making $1000 in 1 week with no skills".
It's so misleading to say you made $700 after "selling" your services for $700.
You didn't make $700, you are only a small step through, you still need to do the work, than make sure they pay you.
Wasted time. Nothing new here. Have a product or service to sell. Find prospects. Cold Call. Then do the work.
Wake up. The title says that she TRIED to make $800 in 4 hours, and she showed us HOW she tried to do that, and what her experience was. If you are paying attention, you can learn some things. Thanks to the creator for taking her time to make this video.
Yes you are right she us a greedy clickbaited liar 🤔😏
This was interesting. I live in the US, and l knew right from the start you were going to be walking in quicksand with this one. Businesses in small towns and cities have problems staying afloat as it is, they usually want nothing to do with outsiders, especially those calling from other countries. Too many scammers from India call trying to get any nickel and dime they can from anyone they can.
⁰0p
We have the same problem here in the UK… they use local numbers to get through… I usually string them along or tell them I’m naked with a huge erection and ask them what they are wearing…. Usually does the trick
Some comments seem to think you were lying, but I don't think so. I've seen other videos on this and what people are missing is that you do more than just filling the Google blanks. You should actually go to the business and post various photos of the shop, the people, the manager and so forth. This is not a business for introverts. But, like any sales job, you have to knock on a lot of doors. Great presentation. 😊
@@figgyboy37 Exactly. People who are in business selling there services are actually very bad at advertising their businesses. #facts and I also I have witnessed (in- person) my sister ( she owns her own cleaning service) receive a phone call from some guy, saying he can help her get more clients by claiming her business on all the business listing platforms and optimize her SEO, create a website, etc. and guess what? She gave him a shot & her charged her $250.00. Soooo....😌
@@BambiDollzLLC And? So, did he actually HELP your sister's business? You didn't follow up with that information at the end of your comment.
You didn't make 700$ in 4 hours. You made the sales, but you still have to produce and deliver the service, invoice the clients, file and pay your taxes, etc., etc. A lot of more hours of work. But as many others have commented, I really appreciate the transparence of the process you show. That is exactly how it is running a business or being a freelancer. You just never quite, you have to learn, create opportunities, have ideas, communicate, manage money and people, all at the same time. Inspiring!
She aka her business made 700$ in revenue in 4 hours. Do you see any claim of making 700$ profit or cash in the pocket?
Exactly, if she was making any money like that, she wont be here telling this bullshit to a lot of idiots 😅
See I knew it was a catch
@TheAustinFambily it isn't a catch, she just made it possible to receive 3 orders in 1 hour on her new fiverr acct
I think she effectively proved how any situation has it challenges. This is why having eye toward big picture is so important because if you don't have it you will get swallowed up fairly quickly.
I personally, as a consumer and business owner, find cold-call sales pitches and door-to-door sales to be quite unpleasant and time-burners. These sales tactics often involve the salesperson pointing out the negatives about your business and persistently trying to convince you that you need their services. I do not want to hear that I am failing at marketing my business, even if it may be true. This type of experience can feel similar to dealing with a used car salesperson, with their constant questioning and attempts to prove the necessity of their services. They simply will not take no for an answer. When I feel it's necessary, I would rather take my time to research and vet any potential service providers myself, instead of having someone waste my time with a pre-prepared and scripted sales pitch. Additionally, I feel that salespeople can come across as fake, deceptive, and manipulative.
That is a tremendous amount of hustle. You literally learned a new business, in a new market, using new tools -- in 4 Hours -- and actually managed to get some sales. That's fantastic!
Glad it was helpful!
The only problem is that we actually didn't see any sales being made in the video!
Right? She's Ready-ready! :)
I still don't understand what she is selling
@@tamasdmmolnar9450she's selling Google listing services to improve other companies visibility. Only issue is I highly doubt she got 3 credit cards for $200 ea on these random cold calls. She probably just got 3 "bookings" with payment assumed in the future.
That was just awesome of you! A couple of quick takeaways - when I googled the course I only got a few basic ones, not the one you showed. Consider putting the leads in a spreadsheet. Don't pitch the gatekeeper.
I was able to find the exact course she used by googling exactly what she said
When I was running a small business doing apartment/building maintenance, all my work came from referrals, and I imagine in a small town most people will know all the folks who sell services. I’d say that your best bet would be larger towns that have a regular changeover of people and those people have a need to find people that they don’t already have contact with. I liked the point made when you started to try and contact people that you couldn’t because they had no contact details listed.
insightful.
People in a bigger metropolitan areas will not be so naive as to say yes to this scam.
Hey dear
This insight is actually helpful
Hi unlike other commenters I do NOT believe it was a fail at all. I believe it was a major success!! I mean in FOUR hours you went from basically nothing to over $600! In my estimation that is a great success especially considering now you had everything setup and ready to make a LOT more money, not to mention you taught many of us how it's done! Thank-you!
Many thanks for the nice words. All the best to you!
considering how that money was made, its a big fail, cause im calling it lieing and scamming
" im a google trained blabla, i help buisnesses to..." after she read something for 42mins?"
trying to tell she is a professional in what she is trying to sell... after 42mins of reading, never tried or tested what the read
i dont know about that... if you would sell that service to me and then after paying i find out the words you used to sell ur service/get my money just meant you were reading stuff for 42mins
"i learned something in 1 hour, never tried or tested it, and i want you to pay me for it"
@@brokenworld542 I disagree with that comment. Even tho she just learned that skill, she is legitimately HELPING people. And the fact of it being a challenge and test against time is of no concern to the customers, because she isn’t scamming or robbing them or anything. The only lies are convincing people she has been doing that as a job already , and she knows what she’s doing. A business isn’t going to trust someone that says “hey I just read about how to help your business like 2 hours ago so will you pay me to see if I can do it ?” And service always has a price everyone knows that. The intentions here are very good, as long as somebody doesn’t take this advice and use it to just benefit themselves to get money from people without a care. To do this the right way and actually help people as a new job type thing to raise money….nothing wrong with that. Aside from the tons of scams and lies people get in their email, text, and calls, it’s actually heartwarming for me to see this because I know several people who opened up small businesses in small towns and finding out how to help them increase their discoverability and sales is exciting!!
@@christinakinnear8239 "The only lies are convincing people she has been doing that as a job already , and she knows what she’s doing." - THE ONLY LIES... the only one lie or the lies? i dont know what the only lies means?! still lies in the end...
you cant get 250$ for 42mins of reading + some clicking, its just not right to charge that much if you are a newbie, be honest and charge fair amount. i wanna see the work that was done for these 250$
specially small buisness may prefer to do this at their own, if they would know you are charging this 250$ for something you can learn in breaktime.
they expect to get a professional service for the 250$ they invest in you, but they get something everyone can do in breaktime.
50$ would be realistic for a newbie service.
but when you charge 250$ for the "professional 42min to learn service" you provide, you are just scamming ;)
"she is legitimately HELPING people" by lieing and grabing peoples money? i see, i see
Major props to you for being transparent. What you experienced was spot on. As dedicated entrepreneurs and business minded people, we don't quit. I just started following your page.
Business minded people do not run round calling people looking for jobs. We make more money with our time than is possible doing that. I can make more money in an hour just sending some pics to my customers in messenger than most people make in a week. i used to live on 200 dollars a month, now i can do 20,000, and it was not by following these methods that i got where i am now

This was my problem starting a business selling products online. I went with the idea of if it’s too low quality for me then I am not selling it. Spent thousands of dollars on samples then realized, I might need to make my own product to find the quality I need for the price my projected customer base can afford.
Cold calling small business is tough. It's a numbers game but every time you repeat your script, you start to make it your own and adapt in the moment.
Are ya winning, son?
@@islamtoghujit is if you're making a difference for your client.
i dont get it. i watched the whole video and i didnt see/hear any sales, but there were sales... why not show the conversation?
It is not legally allowed to share actual calls.
@@SuperHumansLife understood, but i'm referring to the 13minute mark of the failed call
I attempted one of those SMMA courses, but ended up getting a refund. However...what was mentioned in the video about getting your business on Google was spot on.
I was working for a doctor who at the time recently put up a website. I took what I learned from the first few videos I watched in the SMMA course to help optimize the doctor's website and get the business listed on Google.
Definitely YES, you get more customers when you claim your business. Local customers absolutely want to find and work with local businesses.
Great info!!
Used information from a course you got a refund for hmmm better repent
@@beemerkon Calm down. I didn't finished the course. Hence, I mentioned I watched only a few videos. Stop acting all high and mighty like you never bought and used something only to realize it wasn't a good fit for you where you returned it and got a refund.
If you lie that you have never done so, then honey, you need to repent.
There were some good nuggets in your efforts. #1 is not having the fear of doing 'something' which paralyzes most people. Thank you!😊
Thanks
I can agree to this, I am one of those and in these type of jobs you even fear to hear a No!

I respect that u posted your failure 💯 .
I've always been honest, transparent and genuine in my videos. Appreciate your comment. Thank you.
Lol 'failure' still so impressive
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@SuperHumans Life this video in its self had potential of being a possible niche.
I’d love to fail like that any day.
Sister you are doing well you just earned another subscriber you literally show us what it means to start an online service and the cost to land a client and not some people that just promise you easy going and then you get confused ❤
ikr!
@@theGEMcircle like sincerely
This was genuinely a good example of a business use case. Loved the way you tried to sell stuff to make money.
Wow! What an inspiration! I’ve been procrastinating for weeks to start my own service based business and here you are done it in 4 hrs! 😂 You’re my hero! ❤ I’m jumping on the phone and Fiverr! 😂
Same dude lol good luck tho 👍
Like she said the key is helping people with there struggles
you got this!
Did you make any money yet? How much were you able to make? I would never normally ask questions like this under normal circumstances because it would be very rude, but that is the point of this video in supposedly helping people make money fast, and it would definitely help all the rest of us know if it’s a legit way to make money or a sham. Either way if uncomfortable to answer no worries. :)
@freedomfamily548 where are you based ?
I'm super pleased with this video because it's not one of those super scketchy "Make a million dollars in ten seconds" you usually find everywhere in TH-cam. I love that you not only explain the process but also the results an tools you use to get yourself closer to that $800 goal.
I find it very inspiring and will try it out myself after reading the guide you also provide us. Thank you very much for this! Greetings from Venezuela.
I’d say it’s still pretty sketchy and merely to get yt video views.
This was perfect! Just what I needed. I been running my trucking company for going on 4 years. I started out grossing 6 figures out the gate, but didn’t have no structure with allocations and the pandemic really shut down my business. Thanks VRI Token for getting me approved for a grants after several denials and with what you just taught me this is a true game changer that’s fixing to take my trucking company to next level. Thank you!
VRI Token still that generous?
This video seems misleading in a lot of senses, just before creating the fiverr account she didnt sell anything, in an hour or so she created the fiverr account and managed to sell to three businesses? I am not sure how this works out. Anyways kudos if you are a superhuman. Cheers
I think she created fiver to be able to get paid by the business she called.
I have to toally commend you for your courage to get this started. I know from experience that it takes some brass nuts to source and call businesses to sell a service using just the phone. Well done, looking forward to seeing many more of your videos!
Definitely do a follow up video. As a sales person I think it was good for you to show that it is not easy to cold call and get instant results. Many of the answers need further follow ups and I would be interested to see what you are doing for the three companies to keep them at the top of a search list. Thanks for sharing.
I could never cold call and sell, I am shy. This is good information for people looking for a job who are introverted. Thank You.
What did you promised him for $250? You didn’t show us what you were going to do for them.
Maybe setup owner in google map
🤫😉
Company website
Right I thought I was tripping
I thought she was hooking lol
This was actually extremely impressive. So many people procrastinate or don't believe that they really can earn money that easily simply by doing sales calls on the phone which I find people are terrified of for some reason.
yes you're right, collab with them and teach how to earn money with 1 dollar in pocket
Because she called 22 companise with no results, it's very discouraging. I would give up.
Because for every guillible fool that do this for a living (for a penny), 1000 other dudes/dudettes do the same thing but with a twist, they scam people over phone calls (especially old people)
I consider the people that call me to solicit products to be the lowest human beings on the planet. They come into my personal time and space to push their garbage…. Shame on that sales tactic…. I have never, and will never give money to a phone solicitor….
@@MrJoelkamins She was calling businesses. B2B is quite different than calling your home.
Wonderful video, thanks for sharing this with us!
As an aside, something to keep in mind is that the majority of people in the US, especially businesses with publicly listed numbers, will be getting tens or even hundreds of spam calls a day from e.g. telescammers in India, so they will be HIGHLY suspicious of anyone with a foreign accent calling them and offering services. As such, if you're an entrepreneur and have a strong accent, you may want to consider hiring a friend or someone to make the phone calls and offering them a small part of the profits, while you do all of the behind-the-scenes work of figuring out who to call, what to offer, providing the caller(s) with a script, etc. Just something worth considering if you feel like you're doing a good job but still getting a lot of rejections.
I really appreciate the honesty in this video. I think it's important for people to see the challenges firsthand that come up. Most side Hustle videos show "How Easy" they are to do and not the difficulties that will arise.
The time it takes to create an account on fiverr and make gigs then getting the clients take days .I'm working on fiverr since 2020. its clear she's lying about making that amount of money in that time
Some people don’t understand that TH-cam like social media is a stage. You acted out a part and the answers given to the “I can do betters” show your class. Congrats!
Wow, Thank you so much Lara. This was so inspiring as on-line work has felt like a nightmare to me and you actually made it look normal, every other post never shows any glitches only "sunshine" however, you showed that things do not always go the way you wanted and you just went with the punches and made a new plan.
That was a fun video to watch. I really wish we could have heard more of the phone call. The art of selling happens on the call lol. I really hope you make another video like this one. I knew you were great already, but now you’re amazing in my eyes! It takes a lot of courage to make a call and try to close the deal on the phone.
Thank you, Luis! The script I used is in the downloadable guide linked in the video. Hope it helps
@@SuperHumansLife I’ll check it out. Keep up the good work Laura. Your content keeps getting better with every video. 🔥
@@Luis-ki3dr I'm glad to hear. We really try to create videos that help. And my team keep me on my toes :)
Maybe what was promised was to get fake reviews written. Apart from owner profile, what else can you do? Also many others asked and she didn't answer which makes me think click-bait.
th-cam.com/users/shortstE5_IRTp0Ek?feature=share
Pro tip for speaking: Never use the word "what" unless you are asking a question. Turn "What you wanna do is start..." into "Start..." or "Now start..." and all the related filler phrases like "What I'm going to do now is I'm going to...".
I really appreciated your transparency in making this video! Watching you do this, helped me to realize that I can do this too! And thank you So much for posting the Google Business course link!
You and 1.5 million other people.
you'll likely spend more than 80 hours doing all of the projects associated with these agreements she made, thats including the time spent trying to convince the small businesses to actually go through with the proposed project she has to design and setup. don't forget they can still decline the deals.
Sounds good. But i would like to see the final services you offered to the clients. Did you do consulting or hands on? The pdf is more general and doesn't outline what you did specifically to fulfill the orders. A part 2 video to address the many questions viewers have would be cool. Thank you. ❤
She chose USA because Google would refuse to pay her for doing the same in just about any other country!
@@chrisfogedlee7059 I thought the client was paying her, not Google.
Hi Chris! It is really the business owner of the company listed on Google Maps who pays. Google themselves don't pay for this.
I added more details in the video description. Hope it helps.
@@SuperHumansLife thanks!
You said you're not going to use your previous skills, but then you created a Fiverr account and said you can do this quickly because you know how to do it from your experience :) Then you made me watch this video and I didn't get any info or didn't see how you got those 3 clients. All in all, not a good video because you're just looking for views...
I think the moral of the story is to get some skills
Typing is also a skill
Great video! 👍🏻I don't know how I got here but I love your honesty. I would say you did not win the challenge however you were able to create/decide on what to do, open a small business and get your first customers in four hours! Very well done!!!🎉🎉🎉❤
Thank you so much!!
Excellent video. Your goal was $800, and you sold $700. There are automated tools and software out there to find the business info you needed, but you did it manually, starting from Zip within four hours. That's rather incredible and instructive. Way to go!
what are those automated tools and software?
what are the tools you just said you know about
I'm sorry, but most if not all people are gonna just believe they are being called by a scammer.
This was a great example to show people how to lie confidently and make money from youtube. She basically lied and I will tell you now:
1. She could make call saying this phone call is being recorded for educational and improvement purpose and she could easily gave us the conversation.
2. She could easily show us Fiverr negotiation part which she didn't.
We are now kind of used to this kind of liars everyday of our life.
So which is the best way of making money online?
seriously it took her an hour to create a profile on fiverr and a gig and she got $700 in orders tf, Liar!
Thumbs up for showing a 'realistic' approach. Just a question: When a client is interested, how do you proceed with the account creation? Have them create the account themselves and request permission to add you as a 'manager' or create it yourself with your company account and assign them afterwards as the primary owner? (if that's an option)
Hi George. I made another video with all these details that should go live this weekend. Stay tuned
I am loving your video cos I am in between jobs will try this gig thanks
@@samptest2778 is it working for you?
How did this gig go for you. I am also attempting to work for myself
I dindt find the video is there a link? thanks@@SuperHumansLife
She said you can do it without any skills, or experience, and that she can't use those.Yet, if you watch the part where she fills in her profile for Fiverr, you can see she said she studied at a university, have 5 years experience, and done 7k+ projects...
Congratulations, Laura! $700 is nothing to feel bad about achieving. Very impressive.:)
Fiverr fees, phone fees, actual time to do the job...how much money do you really can make for, let's say, one week?
Depends on the person. I focused on the parts that I thought were most useful to get the clients because I felt that what you actually optimize in the profile is described in the Google training.
Very good. As people say in comments, yes, she did not show the actual work hours she would put additionally to complete the task / project. But, on the other hand, her 4 hours included her education (study) to work with Google maps and how to actually do the job. So, no idea about the quality of work to be done, but we already see good learning, interpersonal skills and salesmanship.
Big respect and congratulations to make that performance in such short time. Others never get that far in a lifetime 👏🏻👏🏻
I find this 'exercise' absolutely amazing. And the fact it 'didn't work' at first, actually made it way more interesting and an 'interactive' learning experience, than it would have otherwise. Of course the problem is that this 'market' is gonna get saturated very fast, i guess, but i was amazed by how easy it was, compare to some of my struggle i face at work EVERY DAY FOR MUCH LESS A PAY. Knowing about those opportunities out there is really what make the difference between "street' smart and college smart.
She didn't make 700 USD - she only acquired some projects worth that money. The actual work is still to be done.
A lot of SEO agencies and individual workers already do cold-calling to various companies and pitching their services, promising first page Google rankings, offering web design/development, social media marketing, etc. A lot of these workers are Indians who are doing it. Most companies get bombarded with all these cold-calls and pitches daily that they just ignore them. LOL
This is true, but when you make a local phone call and you are Familiar with the business as you do your homework before you call them and let them know what they need. And also be willing to meet up with them changes the game.
@@fullofgraceandtruth85 Exactly, you have a higher chance of success firstly if you sound intellectual and very knowledgeable in what you are pitching. Come across polite and friendly. And do not have an accent that people do not easily trust when receiving a sales call. Asian sounding accents (like India for e.g.) or African sounding accents too, are not easily trusted because a highly level of "over the phone scams", have accents from these areas. And let no one go taking offence because I am African and have witnessed this first hand from both people I met and scam busters I watch online.
@@fullofgraceandtruth85 its true about meeting up changes everything!
Thank You Bro 😍😍😍 ජයවේවා.
Amazing challenge and even better execution! Thank you for this!
Here is an issue I run into and hope you can give me a pointer: When you claim their businesses, do you use YOUR email address or theirs?
If you use theirs, how do you make them click all the confirmation links that get sent to them, so you can actually get things done? And if you use your address, how would they have access to their business profile later? (Or is that the idea, that they now have to come to you for everything? But then how do they receive their customer requests?)
Following
My answer to that would be create a custom email for them and use it during the setup. Then once the job js done, you can change it to their work email and verify it only one time.
You can also add users to your business profile so the business can add you as an admin essential and you’ll have access to the account
Because everyone likes a cold advertising call during the day.
Sorry. Problem solving: Skill you already had. Phone calls: skill you already had. Collaborating, etc. 😁 Anyway, better luck next time. Great walk through. It was helpful seeing and hearing your planning and follow through.
You have a new subscriber today, for your honest transparency alone. I am impressed that you got as far as you did (especially cold calling) in just four hrs.
I'm tired of these "make a zillion $$ in 15 minutes" videos! You offer a real service; one that's more ongoing than the "hit and run" stuff you usually see. What's more, I learned a lot!
Thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to share this information with us. I really enjoyed watching your video. I look forward to watching more of your videos soon. You did a wonderful job!
ya looks like ever marks on hear like it as she dose not sell a thing and con you in beliveing she did
You talk way tooo much, I don't even want to finish watching the video because you're taking so long to get to the point 😒
In my eyes you didn’t fail at all. You are quite amazing. I wish I had your skills, energy and motivation. I worked for myself as a CMT for 17 years. Because of a shoulder injury I have to change my line of work. I have no idea what to start looking into for work. I think you did an awesome job in this video!
Thank you so much, Kaylynn.
@@SuperHumansLife Her name is Kaylynnbeign6499 though 😆
Thank you mame I been developing this business myself too for the past year! I been needing more push lately lol
so you spent 3 hours doing a google maps thing that absolutely failed, and about 15 minutes of this video, said screw it, went to fiverr and called companies about making them a website
Ok I have no idea what you sold
Hi there! This is the first video of yours that I've come across, and I must say, I'm quite impressed. The way you present information is not only easy to understand but also incredibly helpful in guiding me through the process of creating my own plan to see if it works for me. Thank you for creating content like this. I've subscribed to your channel and look forward to watching your other videos. I hope to gain more valuable insights into the online business industry. Cheers!
I'm appreciating the honesty of the struggles and how not everyone has a number, will answer, will buy, etc. The other thing is she still has to deliver on those sales, so the real start to finish timeline will take a couple days: the sales part is done, the "real finish line" is a couple days away yet. The real growth opportunity after planting this seed is GROWING the business & getting a pipeline of referrals. Small biz owners know other small biz owners.
Great video! Had no ideas there were courses in google for free. I’ve been wanting to start a local directory website for my town as we don’t have one where I live. They rely solely on word of mouth and the local Facebook group ! Meanwhile most businesses close within 2 years of opening if that. I would love to offer this as a service to them. Thank you!!
Thanks
so your videos are why people call me 40 times a day lol thanks
how did you manage to get them to agree to pay 200 dollars for a 'service'? like, exactly what service did you even offer to provide? you can't even show pictures or videos through the phone... why would people just accept to pay so much for this
$200 in America is NOT a lot of money. A family of 4 can spend that on a dinner out in one night.
Hey lady, I've just started watching but I already have a very good impression of you - the confidence you exude walking in the dark without a light! I'm going to comment again at the end. Ride on!
Thanks :)
Ahahaaaa! This comment is written in a very funny way! Made me laugh!!🤣🤣🤣
You didn't show the process on fiverr to find the company or show the phone call how you handle clients from A to Z
Exactly my thoughts
She didnt show anything. She is just trying to sell her course.
I made $10,000 in 2h !!!!
I called 100 neighbors in 2h, and offered them to clean their houses 7h/day for 2 weeks for just $200.
50 of them accepted, so I made $10,000 in 2h !!!!
Wow! This is so cool! I look forward to seeing the specific steps...especially what you actually do for these companies. Thank you!
I show everything in the video and detail everything in the free guide - including my script and examples
Maybe what was promised was to get fake reviews written. Apart from owner profile, what else can you do? Also many others asked and she didn't answer which makes me think click-bait.
@@SuperHumansLife I watched the video twice and I can't see that you did. This video shows you how to identify leads, not what you did for these clients or whether it justifies the cost to them.

I stumbled across your video and instantly knew this was made for me. I'm going through the same thing with my business but just knowing that I'm not the only one who's experienced this just pushes me to go harder. Continue to put out informational content and sharing your story, THAT is what separates you from the rest. Much gratitude sir and *vri token* was so helpful during the process of getting my grant approved.
Hi, if you need to call a client from another country, how will you call him? If you call him in phone, it will cost a lot. What is the procedure ?
"Fascinating challenge! I'm impressed by your strategic approach to making $800 in just 4 hours using Google Maps. The use of Google Trends to gauge demand is a clever move. Looking forward to seeing the follow-up and how your calls to potential clients pan out. Keep up the great work! 💪🌐
😢 you literally brushed over the most important part. How did you make the 3 sales? What sales pitch worked? What deliverables did you promise?
She played the best part which is youtube video.
Your explanations are concise and practical. I've watched numerous videos on trading, but I haven't made much progress due to the confusing information or stories of personal success. Could you recommend a reliable trading coach who can provide clear guidance?
I am aware that continuing to invest during periods of volatility can be a smart way to build wealth. I've heard testimonies of people accruing over $250k in this red period. What measures can I take to achieve this?
I get cold calls like this all the time. I just hang up the phone!
Good video, but it creates many questions.
1. What did you offer? You should show examples, what they will have after your work (before-after).
2. We didn’t hear your conversation. It’s very important to right introduce yourself by call.
It sounded like bs. She has an accent. She paused while even telling them her made up company name. She sounded like the scam calls I get. Would you have bought anything from her?
I added more details now in the video description and the pinned comment. Hope it helps
So what is the service you selled them? Only fixing up Google My Business profiles?
This was interesting… so basically anyone can do this from home with little to no experience. Is it a one and done thing for each client or is there any further contact or maintenance down the road that you need to do for them that could possibly make you more money from each client.
I just found part 2, how you did it. I’m watching it now.
Making money live within such a short period is worth more than one semester in the university. Thanks.
But she didn't make anything on this video 😅
Yes, in the video I focused on the sale, the delivery was done after.
@@SuperHumansLife it was good content, but title comes off as misleading/clickbait
I Mean looks like you went to quite a struggle to get 3 commissions in 4 hours, that you then will have to deliver, and who knows how long it will take. At the end of the day the $$ per hour will be highly volatile and probably not great.
Probably a decent gig if you're unemployed and sitting on the couch otherwise.
But remember this is not her day to day job. This is a random business idea challenge.
Yes, I focused on the getting the gigs because that is a challenge for many people. There is a need for extra time to deliver.
But even if it is her only income: $700/day (she spends 4 hours getting the clients + 4 hours providing the promised service), times 20 working days a month is $14,000 income per month. Pretty nice income I’d say! Wouldn’t you?
@@delsisabarc5790 Good like with those 4 hours to provide the service
Despite all the negative naysayers’ comments on here, I got you and see that you really tried hard, and I commend you for that. Your headline said “I tried Making $800 in 4 Hours…. With the definitive word meaning ‘Tried’ therefore you told the truth.
Cold-calling B2B is not easy and takes guts and I can tell by your voice that the extremely short deadline you gave yourself eventually stressed you out, but I can also see that you were honest in your intentions of giving the truth of the outcome. Your efforts touched on a good idea unrelated to what you were showing that I was looking for and I appreciate you for it. Keep up your good intentions and never give up, despite the negative naysayers commenting here and in your life. I appreciate you and thank you. You got me for a subscriber looking forward to your next podcast. Always be well.
The issues is that you did not show what's the actual service that you're providing.. What are they paying for?
It is probably in the course, search engine optimization is as old as search itself.
I added more details now in the video description and the pinned comment. Hope it helps
You did not explain what kind of services do you sell? How can you improve the ranking in Google at your costumers, what do you do in detail, this would be interesting, find costumers and call them seems to be easy, but the product is the key and I know nothing about it when I see this video:) 17:57
