Thanks, Evan! I am happy you found the channel! It's great having you as part of the community we're building here on TH-cam! If there's anything else I can do to support you, just let me know. Thanks for watching and for your kind words!
I like the face expressions of the participants. The first guy in the top row seemed to freeze once he heard the testimony. The last guy in the top row was like "daaamn". And the dude who is second from the left in the bottom row - watch his expression when the other guy is speaking. Priceless. 🤣
Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge Lee!!! I am going to flip my strategy upside down today and I am sure the following these steps will help me finally succeed. Thanks again!
really great. not able to buy your course yet. but you giving lots of important information still valuable. waiting for more video. i do web design service for clients but still struggling to find clients
Great information- I basically watched it twice. One question, though. You say, "Rather than developing a custom solution you are qualifying them for the solution you already did in Step 1". But step 1 was a free Yelp, LinkedIn, or Google Business page redo. I didn't catch where an actual repeatable solution was being developed. Did I miss it?
Thank you for checking out the video! I hope you come back again soon :) I've got a bunch of videos here. If you have any questions that aren't answered by the videos, let me know. Thanks again!
God, ive never found something this enlightening. This guy is literally handing me an ungodly sum of golden info 😮 Totally love this man, thanks ❤ But i need help in some aspect of this video? Can you help me understand somethings better?
Hey! Thanks for the awesome compliment! Yes, I'd love to help if there's something you're trying to understand better. Just let me know, and I'll do what I can to clear things up. I'm glad you found this video and are part of our community here.
@@DoubleStack Thanks a mil for responding. See, when it comes to the part of actually drafting out my email content, I'm having trouble with trying to put in how much good this potential client has to benefit from my service. It lengthens the email (unnecessarily esp on the client side). Please, what can I do about this? And in what order can I better put my major subjects so it all makes sense to my clients. And is there any of your videos that particularly talks on strategic ways to meet, convince and work with new web design clients? And I also tried your method in how I understood, I tried in like 3 different ways, I was really looking forward to that conversion rate, but I don't know, it's not working. I'm probably doing something wrong. I just need some help.
AMAZING VALUE IN THIS VIDEO! It got my mind cracking out some great ideas. Thank you Lee, I will implement this right away and if it works I will Venmo you a gift❤
I think this is all very useful information but I thought this was meant to be about a practical way to Unlock No-Cost Leads? Instead it is about how to set out your stall, communicate effectively and maximise your position. Getting leads has to come from somewhere and I feel this title is a little misleading. Who are you reaching out to without having information for the interested customer to begin with?
Sounds like you'd be interested in our guide on getting leads. You'll get an eBook with over 30 different ideas for great niches. You also get 7 video tutorials with step-by-step instructions for finding leads from within your niche. Check it out here and let me know what you think. It's all free: Lee.Blue/leads
Hey Lee, thank you for your channel and everything you do for us web devs. I have a question about something you mentioned in this video. You said how something we can offer for free is doing a potential Google business profile optimization. While that does sound interesting, wouldn't the client be sketched out since we would have to sign into their businesses google account to change it? Wouldn't that scare them away? I might be wrong about that since I know nothing of Google business profiles, just websites haha. Thank you so much for all of your replies and helping me and everyone else out.
You do it live together with the client so. The first part of the call, you talk a little bit and build rapport. The entire point of the call is to build rapport, really. You're not asking them to blindly give you access to their account and you never ask for their password or anything. There's an entire process that I teach on Blue Theory. If this is something you're interested in doing, hop into Blue Theory with me and I'll walk you through all the step-by-step details. Blue Theory is set up with a 7-day money-back guarantee so we can work together for a week and if it's not the best thing you ever did for your business, just let me know and you'll get a full refund. When you get in, introduce yourself real quick in the Water Cooler (discussion) space. Let us know a little about your business and what your biggest challenge is right now. Tag me in that post. I'll welcome you to the family and we'll start working on getting you some clients. I think you'll love it. See you there! Here's the link: Lee.Blue/
Yes, usually you have a "Pilot Program" where you work with at least one real-world/live client at discounted rates before you go all in with your normal pricing. During the Pilot Program you're refining your offer, building your confidence, and getting at least one awesome case study. All of this sets you up to make it easier to land all your future clients. There are several different patterns for how you structure the Pilot Program that we can go over together in Blue Theory. We've got a 7-day money-back guarantee going on right now, so we can work together for a week to make sure it is the right fit for you. So, if you want, hop into Blue Theory with me, and I'll help you set up your Pilot Program. Lee.Blue/
Thank you:) very helpful, I’ll definitely use this approach. But my problem if to get first contact with a client. Cold dms are still left without reply
Yeah, making those connections is a little hard, but we've got some strategies that are producing 10% - 30% response rates even though it's cold outreach. I can work through the process with you as part of Blue Theory. It's not complicated, but there are three major steps that we need to cover. Making contact with your outreach is actually the SECOND step - not the first. First, you'll need a good offer that targets a specific niche. It can't just be generic services because it's crazy hard to get clients when you're offering services. It's so much easier when you're offering a results-driven solution. The second step is to build an outreach campaign to get leads coming in. This is dependent on the first step because you need to know who your offer is for before you can target the right audience in your marketing. The third step is closing the deal. I am a big fan of "small favor" marketing because that allows you to turn cold leads into paying clients in one 45-minute call. It takes a little practice to develop this process, but once you've got it down, you'll have a business that you can scale to 6-figures working from wherever you want with a laptop.
Yes! Have you seen the video about Small Favor Marketing where we dive into the details of how we do proactive outreach? Check it out here: th-cam.com/video/Ct3rUjolhjA/w-d-xo.html
Ha! You're very welcome! Thanks for checking out the video, and I hope you come back for some more videos soon. Thanks for being part of our community here!
I really need help on getting clients I am from south Africa and at the moment I am not making enough money to make rent at the moment I have my own business and everything do you have any courses or anything like that I can maybe look into other than the youtube videos?
Hey, Mark. Yes, I have a coaching program at Lee.Blue/ That will give us a chance to work together to get you some clients. It comes with a 7-day money-back guarantee. So, we can work together for a week, and if, for whatever reason, you feel like it's not the right fit for you, just let me know and I'll send you a full refund.
Hello Lee, im a new web developer and wanted to ask if you would be willing to join a quick 10 minute call to give me some guidance or advice, and thank you for all this free information you posted.
I normally do have an option to book calls with me. They are 1-hour calls and the cost is $1,000. I do offer a money-back guarantee such that if at the end of the call you don't feel like you got at least $1,000 of value, just let me know and you get a full refund. Right now, I'm sold out of these calls for the next couple of months. The only way to get a one-on-one call with me right now is with an annual Blue Theory membership. Lee.Blue/#join Another option is to join Blue Theory with a monthly membership and attend one of our group calls on Thursdays at 2:00 PM Eastern Time. We can speak one-on-one there, just with other people listening in. That's a great way to get personalized coaching at a fraction of the cost of private mentoring.
One of the primary concepts is to NOT offer custom solutions and instead to develop the solution first. The problem with offering "custom" solutions is that you're not _really_ offering a custom solution. You're actually just offering consulting and then hoping for the best. If it is custom, then by definition, nobody else has it. It hasn't been tested or proven and, therefore, might not actually be a solution in the sense that it might not actually solve anything. I'm a very strong proponent of developing the Solution First so that your marketing can be crystal clear about who your solution is for, the problem you're solving, and what the outcome is going to be. I guarantee that with the Solution First agency model, you'll be able to get more leads and more clients at higher prices while also getting your clients better results.
Only target people you know can afford you. Look for clients with: - $1,000+ customers (annual value) - $100,000+ gross revenue potential Those two metrics alone will get you in the ballpark for finding good clients.
I don't know if doing something for free is a good idea. Sets a bad precedent for your brand and the time investment may make you more receptive to rejection amongst other things
It depends a lot on what the free thing is. I'm definitely NOT suggesting anybody build entire websites for free or anything like that. But a little small favor here and there has been extremely effective for us.
In my experience people who get stuff for free will not respect it or y9our time building/creating it, I will never work for free, ever again, to me this is terrible advice.
There's certainly a danger of getting taken advantage of if you're going to offer things for free. I'm very careful about the type of stuff I offer for free to make sure there's no scope creep. I also want to make sure the thing I'm doing cleanly segues into my paid services. It's not the ONLY way to get leads, but if you do it right it can be incredibly effective. Thanks for watching the video even if it's not the right strategy for you.
I feel like I struck a pot gold when I discovered Lee Blue.

really great. not able to buy your course yet. but you giving lots of important information still valuable. waiting for more video. i do web design service for clients but still struggling to find clients
Hello! Almost a year I hope you are not struggling with getting client now. I have the same problem, please any tips or help will go a long way.
Great information- I basically watched it twice.

Yes sr. You have experience in the field 👏🏻

Do you need to do a test run with at least one niche client to get to know if you can deliver on everything before you go all in?
Yes, usually you have a "Pilot Program" where you work with at least one real-world/live client at discounted rates before you go all in with your normal pricing.

You can't scale or productize your service this way if your offering multiple or custom solutions.
One of the primary concepts is to NOT offer custom solutions and instead to develop the solution first. The problem with offering "custom" solutions is that you're not _really_ offering a custom solution. You're actually just offering consulting and then hoping for the best. If it is custom, then by definition, nobody else has it. It hasn't been tested or proven and, therefore, might not actually be a solution in the sense that it might not actually solve anything.

I guarantee that with the Solution First agency model, you'll be able to get more leads and more clients at higher prices while also getting your clients better results.
But if we're offering something free..how do you know they can afford your services. Because you might be doing multiple stuffs for free
Only target people you know can afford you. Look for clients with:
- $1,000+ customers (annual value)
- $100,000+ gross revenue potential
Those two metrics alone will get you in the ballpark for finding good clients.
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Wow!

dw, the video's going to get split into youtube shorts soon. Best to watch those instead.
