Day 17: I've established a partnership with a clinic!!! LETS GOOOO I also established a good friendship with my freelancer, i asked about alot of stuff andd they were really helpful! now it's just a matter of time until I'll get my first sale. I'm so excited
Im kind of getting the hang of things now like how dropservicing works how people can make alot of money from it etc. Still no sells sadly but I'll try to push even harder. I'm messaging alot of clinics daily most of them don't respond I changed the offer to 800 euro per animation which is crazy cheap compared to what i could find but still no sells Wish me luck guys! Goodluck to any dropservicers out there
I hope i get any sales and this starts to work my eyesight is getting worse and worse and i wanna have a surgery so i can see clear without glasses again
Day 14 I think, I've established a good communication with an clinic from Iran and they want to work with me long-term, I'm learning about the service and how I can deliver the best I can, I have not yet produced an animation for the clinic yet but it's looking like I'm going to be soon. I'm messaging other clinics in the meantime too but no responses yet. Also thanks Dylan for all your responses to my comments they really help me!
HII, first of all it's great that you're already able to develop communication with clinics, but i'm lost on how exactly to find them. I don't know where to look for them or how.
If I don't know about 3d animation, 3d modeling. How can I understand when the client explains the project he wants and how can I ask questions related to the project because I don't know about 3d animation?
It's the norm, no one will start working on anything before receiving at least a partial payment, bear in mind that a 'client' might try to scam you too, so never start work or deliver anything without getting paid first. I recommend offering 50% upfront, 50% upon delivery option to your clients. Before delivering the final service (e.g. full quality files, a video without a watermark, source files, etc.), make sure you get the final payment first.
I have been lurking about drop servicing for a while and your video seems like most trustworthy of all the gurus around here. The one thing that is wondering me the most is what happens when the clinic is not satisfied with the work provided and wants a refund but the freelancer that did the work will not want to give the money back? To me it looks like I would need to bring my own money out of the pocked to cover the refund. Isn't it right? It refers to this business model in general. How to deal with that scenario?
This is something you need to talk to the freelancer about. If this is creative work, then you can offer a 50% refund for example so that the team is still paid. I typically don't offer refunds and make it clear to the clients because they know what they're buying, they see our previous work so know what quality to expect and we would not refund a client who suddenly changed their mind once all the work is done. A video production is not a product that can be quickly refunded, our team puts hours of work into a project hence we have a no refund policy unless there is a really special case. More often I offer a 50% refund if the production is only halfway. You will rarely have refund requests if you manage your client's expectations correctly. You should be able to show them the level of quality you're going to deliver so that they know what they're buying. I had very few refund requests since I started.
Once you get paid by the client, you use some of that money to pay the freelancer. I never pay my team 100% upfront either, it's 50% upfront and 50% upon delivery, which is pretty standard. You can actually set up milestones on Upwork too, so that the freelancer gets paid once a certain portion of the project gets completed.
I have talked to soo many clinics at this point, I don't know if it's still my lack of skill in negotiating or... I'm offering to sell them a medical animation in their niche, like for example dental animations to orthodonthists but 500 euro for an animation is even too much for them sometimes, and I'm messaging mostly big medical pages on instagram so,
3D animation is expensive, especially high-quality. The problem I think you face is they don't see the value in it, they don't understand why they should invest in it. This is the problem you need to solve. There are clients willing to spend thousands on a video, there are some who can't spare a few hundred bucks. If you are reaching out on a lower scale, try hyperpersoenalised outreach with ChatGPT 4. With a correct prompt, it will be able to help you write messages that will specifically suggest why they would benefit from such a video and give you specific ideas for their business, nothing general. It will show that you actually analysed their services. Here's a little summary of the most effective outreach nowadays in my opinion: To effectively reach out to clinics/medical companies with your offer, combining advanced tools like LinkedIn Sales Navigator with strategic platforms such as LinkedIn, Google, and utilizing ChatGPT-4 for hyper-personalization is key: - LinkedIn and LinkedIn Sales Navigator: Start by using LinkedIn to connect with healthcare professionals and join relevant groups. Upgrade to Sales Navigator for more advanced search capabilities, allowing you to pinpoint specific clinics and decision-makers within the healthcare sector. Sales Navigator also enables you to send InMails to people you're not yet connected with, which is invaluable for reaching out directly to key figures in clinics. - Google Searches: Utilize Google to find clinics by location or specialty. Look for direct contact information on their websites or use healthcare directories like Healthgrades or Zocdoc. This method helps gather a list of potential clinics to target with your services. - Hyper-Personalized Outreach with ChatGPT-4: Leverage ChatGPT-4 to craft personalized outreach messages.

This demonstrates your commitment and can help keep the conversation going. Combining LinkedIn’s powerful networking capabilities with Google’s vast search resources and the advanced personalization possible with ChatGPT-4, you can create a targeted and effective outreach strategy. Remember, the success of your outreach lies in how well you understand the clinics' needs and articulate your value proposition in a personalized and engaging manner.
If you want to drop service ads and social media marketing on different platforms for clients-how do the clients get the ad that the freelancer made? Like do you just find out what the client wants and tell that to the freelancer and send the client the product, or is it a more complex process. I really need advice
day 15: Not really much to say, nothing happened yet i did more Instagram outreach, learned more about this service etc, As i said I have a clinic that wants to work with me but they take kinda long to respond. I setup a Linkedin Page but i don't know how to turn it into an offer page, do i just post the offer as a post or?
Not really, you need a personal Linkedin Page and a business page for your business. From the personal linkedin page, you can do outreach by sending connection messages, if they accept, then a message with the offer. You can use tools like linkedin sales navigator, send inmails and use automation tools like DuxSoup, but make sure to not abuse it as your Linkedin account might get suspended. With Linkedin Sales Nabigator you can do a very specific search.
or what are the best clients for animated explainers? I'm trying to get clients for that too, I'm messaging mostly real estate companies and people associated with them
i am starting drop servicing as if i am an agency and i want to send emails to potetial clients and ask them if they need logo design, video editing, articles and posts, SEO, data entry or voiceover recording. - formulate it to sound formal and trustful
Hey Dylan! Great topic, one question - how do you make sure that those freelancers are capable of accurately present anatomical details, structures etc. How we can vauch for them?
You need to work with experienced freelancers who have examples and great reviews. Also, your client should provide some models, pictures, references etc. that would need to be recreated in 3D. Then, based on the client's feedback, they'd implement any necessary revisions.
I want to know how can i show my past work if i didn't have any, do i just ask my freelancers for him to maybe allow to use his work? But i don't know if they'd agree please help me out here😅
Day 9: Today I'll focus on learning as much as i can about this service, how do i actually pay on fiverr, all the proccessess etc, I provided the clinic that maybe wants to work with me with samples and they said they were good so there's a chance, i messaged the freelancer that i will use to make the delivery about the production proccess and he said he just needs a script so, I'll figure it out Also the agencies I'm messaging are not responding which is weird, only one responded and said their price is 30-40k per minute which is so much wtf
Yes, there are really expensive and 'fancy' agencies out there and they are also making money, so the idea of drop servicing is to be more reliable than freelancer but also cheaper than the expensive agencies while making sure the services you deliver are of high-quality.
Hello good sir, great info! I just had one question tho, why would someone wanna place an order with us when they could practically get the same thing done directly from the freelancer for way cheaper?
In a perfect market all clients would just use the cheapest possible service at the highest level of quality. But if you know much about economics you’ll know this is never the case in reality. This is a market of differentiation. Your branding, strategy, marketing, and sales have a huge impact on the quality and quantity of clients that you get. For example, if I create an offer for a service helping retail stores get more repeat business then reach out to these stores over email, they will then evaluate that offer based on its merits. They aren’t going to put in the time and effort to go out there and review the thousands upon thousands of potential options. So, the first reason is market differentiation. The second reason is basic human nature (minimising time and effort). The third reason though is the most important, we are creating value through what we do. We aren’t simply connecting a freelancer with a client. We are creating a system through which our clients get a high-quality service with a minimum time and energy investment on their part. Going out and finding freelancers then managing that project is a lot of time and investment for the clients, they simply don’t have that time and energy to invest. I’ve had countless clients come to me and purchase my more expensive service simply because they worked with freelancers on Fiverr and had a bad experience, bad service, and low quality. So, not all clients are cheap, they want to work with the best company, the best offer, and that all comes down to strategy and marketing. In the drop servicing business model, your primary objective is to identify and collaborate with exceptional freelancers who can deliver high-quality services. By leveraging their expertise and skills, you can establish a reputable online agency that offers top-notch services to clients. Over time, you can expand your range of services by partnering with more talented freelancers, thus broadening your agency's capabilities and enhancing its overall value proposition. Ultimately, your success in drop servicing hinges on your ability to consistently deliver exceptional quality services that meet or exceed your clients' expectations. Here’s a few other reasons why companies often opt for agencies instead of freelancers: - Expertise and Experience: Agencies often have a team of professionals with specialised skills and extensive experience in their respective fields. This means that they can offer a wider range of services and a higher level of expertise than an individual freelancer. - Quality Control: Agencies have a quality control process in place to ensure that the work they deliver meets the highest standards. They also have multiple layers of review, so the work is checked and revised by multiple professionals before it is delivered to the client. - Reliability: Agencies have a reputation to uphold, and they are more likely to be reliable and dependable than an individual freelancer. They have a team of professionals who can step in if one team member is unavailable, ensuring that projects are completed on time. - Scalability: Agencies can scale their services up or down as needed to meet the demands of their clients. If a client needs more work done, an agency can quickly allocate more resources to the project. This is harder to achieve with individual freelancers who may have limited availability.
Hello Dylan, I've been watching your content for a while and I've figured how dropservicing works but I got 2 question. I'm currently doing competitor research for the 3D medical animation niche and I have found information such as estimated pricing, delivery time, process and service quality only by looking at their websites. Do you think I should get on a call with any of them and talk to them through email or am I okay to go with this information? Also I think it would be hard to come up with an imagenary project for that niche, since they will immedietly realise i'm not an expert in the space. Also, i'm worrying about the invoice. Normally you'd need to send the client an invoice besides the invoice they've gotten from PayPal or wise, but I can't do that since I don't legally own a company yet because I haven't made any money . Will I need to tell them that they will not get that invoice or will they not care? What would you do if you were in my place?
PayPal,wise and stripe isn't available in my country also i don't have bank acc because I'm under 18, so my question is can i use payoneer for payments?
Here's what you should know about phone calls and selling services: Expensive Services: If you're selling costly, high-ticket services, clients will probably want to talk on the phone before buying. They want to be sure before spending a lot. Cheaper Services: For less expensive services, clients might just buy directly from your website or be okay with just emails. If you're worried about your English: - Think about selling to people in your local market where you speak the language. There are successful companies in almost every country and there is often less competition than in an English speaking market. - Once your business starts doing well, you could hire a commission-based salesperson who speaks English well. You can pay them a commission for each sale they make instead of paying them per hour or number of calls. However, to hire a salesperson you need to make sure your offer and marketing is good and that they are provided with an effective sales script. - You can also partner with someone who’s good in English and would be able to handle that side of business. - For written communication, make sure you’re using tools like Grammarly or check your messages in ChatGPT before sending them to your client. So, depending on what you're selling and who you're selling to, phone calls might be necessary, but there are also ways to work around language barriers.
In the video where you relieve the niche you sald '' 3D Animation for medical agencies. Does that mean we go and target our animation services to medical agencies? Please clarify. Thanks.
End of Day 1: I've set up my ig page, emailed and messaged various clinics, Got 1 reply and waiting for their decision if they wanna work with me based off of my portfolio which they said is promising, however they have not responded to me for a while. I'm kind of stressed but excited at the same time
Good luck to you and don't give up! You can use directories like Crunchbase, Yelp, Linkedin Sales Navigator, RocketReach, Apollo.io etc. to find potential clients too. You can search for lead generation softwares and use their free trials, etc. If your outreach is manual, focus on personalising the message as much as possible. Actually taking some time to review the company and figuring out how you can help them.
Great job on your prospect even though it's one it means you did something right than most in here with their negative comments 😮 just keep your head up and believe in yourself and keep positive learn from your mistakes and shortcomings 😂 all the best . P.s I don't believe in wishing anyone luck cause luck is for lazy people,😢 strong ones make their own luck 👍
ramadan mubarek bro for dropservicing. If the client does not accept payment to me in advance He wants to see the work I've done for him and then pay . how I deal with it ?
Day: 19 I'm struggling to find a new job and that means I'll struggle to pay rent soon, I'm in contact with the clinic from Iran and they will want to order animations from me soon But It looks like it will take a while plus there are sanctions against Iran which means It will be even harder to recieve money, But I'll just keep going... I'm not gonna lie I'm scared as I'm only 19 and got kicked out by my family not so long ago and barely can turn to anyone for help wish me luck and all the best to anyone who's trying this with me ❤
I’ve posted many videos on how to find clients in the past. I invite you to have a look at some of them on my youtube channel. In general, there are various marketing methods to find potential clients, both free and paid, which includes social media outreach, cold emailing, LinkedIn outreach, content marketing, paid advertising, online directories, networking, SEO, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator. It's important to research which approach will best suit your business needs and target audience. Identifying the target audience is the first step towards finding potential clients. Creating valuable content, paid advertising, and SEO can also help. Cold emailing can be a challenging but effective approach to reach out to potential clients, but it's important to comply with anti-spam regulations and only target those who are likely to be interested. Cold emailing and LinkedIn outreach are perfect for starting and can be done manually for free. Targeting specific industries and using advanced search filters are some ways to find leads for cold email marketing. LinkedIn Sales Navigator is a powerful tool that helps sales professionals find, engage, and sell to potential clients on LinkedIn. It can help identify potential clients, build and manage lead lists, get insights and recommendations, engage with potential clients, monitor and track engagement, and collaborate with the team.
@@DylanSigleyDropServicing Ended up finding your videos thank you Dylan, I’ve gotten a few people interested but I had one tell me “ It’s cheaper on fiver” though my prices aren’t high. how would you deal with these kind of people. My targetted clients are real estate agents.
Great video! I have no medical background whatsoever, so will I be able to do this? I'm worried about being able to accurately pass customer's needs to the freelancer, and I'm also worried that my lack of medical knowledge and English communication errors could lead to misunderstandings during the communication process. Because I think the nature of this work requires me to be able to express very abstract things.
Once you choose what services you want to offer, there's nothing stopping you from learning all about those services, both online but mostly through talking to the delivery teams. You don't need a medical background, your role is more of a marketer/salesperson and you just need to know what you're selling and what the benefits of your services are. I always ask my clients to submit feedback in written format in order to avoid any confusion and miscommunication for instance.
Here's what you should know about phone calls and selling services: Expensive Services: If you're selling costly, high-ticket services, clients will probably want to talk on the phone before buying. They want to be sure before spending a lot. Cheaper Services: For less expensive services, clients might just buy directly from your website or be okay with just emails.

start of day 6: Bad news, I found out that my instagram got restricted and I can't send new messages to more clinics, I will focus on email outreach mostly, I'll try to personalize the emails as much as I can, Also I'll try to find out the competitors prices, I researched on google that 1 minute animation can vary in price from 5k - 25k so i just decided to sell the animations for 1500 - 2000. I also hope that instagram will unrestrict my account so i can send dms again
Nevermind, two clinics have responded to me already and said that my animations were very good so there's no point in me changing it now, I'll keep gonig with what I have. Also how do i pay on fiverr? Can i pay by paypal? or can i pay with wise somehow? or just my bank? What do i do after i get paid?
Instagram can restrict you if you're 'spamming', so you can't send the same message to multiple accounts and high in volume. On instagram it's best to personalise messages, that's why Linkedin outreach is much better. If you want to focus on cold emailing instead, i recommend woodpecker.co's guides and tutorials: 1. woodpecker.co/academy/cold-email/outbound-outreach-introduction?trk=academy_home_tiles-course_tile 2. woodpecker.co/guide/cold-email/
By the way, they have so many resources and articles and you can use that knowledge to your messages across social media too, not only emails, like: woodpecker.co/blog/value-proposition-how-to-tell-my-addressee-what-i-want-from-them/ woodpecker.co/blog/features-vs-benefits/
Hey Dylan. I'd like to work with something that I like and I know (music). So, drop servicing works in music production, jingle production or sound design?
You can drop service any service that can be delivered online and is in demand, meaning some companies, a specific niche or industry needs such services. You now need to do some research and see if there is a market for the services you'd like to offer, research your competition, etc.
Day 16: Damn this Has become like my diary of some sort But anyways i don't know what more can I do with my current resources i feel like I have done everything I could... I guess now I'll just wait on updates from the clinics i messaged if they wanna work with me, also some clinics i message take literally 2-3 days to respond which is kinda annoying. Also in the meantime i gotta look for a job since the company i worked for shut down My dream is to make this my main source of income but it's hard
@@kevaughngolding9156 hey, thanks for the kind words, sadly no updates yet I'm trying to get sales without investing any money cos im broke, I've messaged many clinics, tried to optimize chat gpt to make it explain to the clinics the benefits it would give them and did my own social media posts on ig and offers but still nothing sadly, I'm slowly losing hope
Day 5: No clients till now, I had one clinic interested but they backed out, I'm feeling kinda down but imma still keep gonig nevertheless, Hope I'll get a client soon
Also i Can't setup a linkedin page cos i need "connections" or something idk what that is, i tried to connect with my other account on linkedin but it did not work
I got my first sale after 3 months of manually emailing decision makers every day because I was starting for free. I was working hard every day, correcting my mistakes, trying to improve, researching my competitors, seeing what they're doing. You need to stay persistent, work on your offer, your social media presence, your outreach copies, etc. and you will land clients consistently, beginnings are the hardest.
You can have all of the above. If you can't afford a website, just use linkedin, facebook and instagram. I talked about it on my recent live stream too: fb.watch/nMNholJVuQ/
Day 17:
I've established a partnership with a clinic!!! LETS GOOOO
I also established a good friendship with my freelancer, i asked about alot of stuff andd they were really helpful!
now it's just a matter of time until I'll get my first sale.
I'm so excited
also i hope that me constantly spamming this comment section with day updates isn't annoying for Dylan xD
good for you, hope it goes well👍😊
Man, I'd love to know if u sent Manuel cold email or what you did exactly
@@Santiago-bl5pvhow is it going
Congrats Bro, I am still learning
Im kind of getting the hang of things now like how dropservicing works how people can make alot of money from it etc. Still no sells sadly but I'll try to push even harder. I'm messaging alot of clinics daily most of them don't respond
I changed the offer to 800 euro per animation which is crazy cheap compared to what i could find but still no sells
Wish me luck guys!
Goodluck to any dropservicers out there
although I'm very sad i haven't gotten any sales yet after a couple of very promising conversations
Which platform are you hiring the freelancers from?
While doing dropservicing learn how to do sales as well. Sales pitching is a very important skill to learn in the business world
Hey any updates this month?
O SHT!! I happened to be watching your video, and I happen to be a super legit 3D artist!! Caught my attention at 2:30
Hey!! Any chance you’ll be down to work on this?
I hope i get any sales and this starts to work my eyesight is getting worse and worse and i wanna have a surgery so i can see clear without glasses again
have you gotten any sales yet?
I love your videos, I've been looking for a good niche for a while now thank you so much for everything Dylan
Thank you for watching!
Day 14 I think, I've established a good communication with an clinic from Iran and they want to work with me long-term, I'm learning about the service and how I can deliver the best I can, I have not yet produced an animation for the clinic yet but it's looking like I'm going to be soon. I'm messaging other clinics in the meantime too but no responses yet.
Also thanks Dylan for all your responses to my comments they really help me!
HII, first of all it's great that you're already able to develop communication with clinics, but i'm lost on how exactly to find them. I don't know where to look for them or how.
there is no exact solution for us ,I'm too didn't know how to find clients.But try until it done@@iwrite8342
Hey could you please tell me where did you find clients and how it's goona helps us a lot
So the freelancer sends me his work for a web design project. How do I send the website with hosting and domain to client?
If I don't know about 3d animation, 3d modeling. How can I understand when the client explains the project he wants and how can I ask questions related to the project because I don't know about 3d animation?
Get into a project that you know things about
What is the average competitor price of medical animation agency? Did anyone do the research and find out?
You can do the research and share what you found with others :)
Can you go specify the exact clients we’re looking for to do outreach. Like are we messaging clincs , Mds , private owned , public owned etc ???
Hello! If I’m doing web design/development, how does the website get sent to the client?
I suggest talking to a free lancer and ask them.
07:44 Why would our client pay us before we deliver the work?
It's the norm, no one will start working on anything before receiving at least a partial payment, bear in mind that a 'client' might try to scam you too, so never start work or deliver anything without getting paid first. I recommend offering 50% upfront, 50% upon delivery option to your clients. Before delivering the final service (e.g. full quality files, a video without a watermark, source files, etc.), make sure you get the final payment first.
Love YOU from... Bangladesh
What type of freelancer would I hire to do website design and maintenance for reoccurring monthly payments?
Web designer/developer
I have been lurking about drop servicing for a while and your video seems like most trustworthy of all the gurus around here.
The one thing that is wondering me the most is what happens when the clinic is not satisfied with the work provided and wants a refund but the freelancer that did the work will not want to give the money back? To me it looks like I would need to bring my own money out of the pocked to cover the refund. Isn't it right? It refers to this business model in general. How to deal with that scenario?
This is something you need to talk to the freelancer about. If this is creative work, then you can offer a 50% refund for example so that the team is still paid. I typically don't offer refunds and make it clear to the clients because they know what they're buying, they see our previous work so know what quality to expect and we would not refund a client who suddenly changed their mind once all the work is done. A video production is not a product that can be quickly refunded, our team puts hours of work into a project hence we have a no refund policy unless there is a really special case. More often I offer a 50% refund if the production is only halfway. You will rarely have refund requests if you manage your client's expectations correctly.

@@DylanSigleyDropServicing Thank you for the fast response. Good luck on your youtube channel!
@@DylanSigleyDropServicingI like this dude
My question is how do we pay freelancer after we get paid. As in fiverr, upwork etc.. they are asking to pay first
Once you get paid by the client, you use some of that money to pay the freelancer. I never pay my team 100% upfront either, it's 50% upfront and 50% upon delivery, which is pretty standard. You can actually set up milestones on Upwork too, so that the freelancer gets paid once a certain portion of the project gets completed.
Make video how we can find that specificed medical clinic who want 3d animation. And how we can pitch them for 3d animation .

Like do you just find out what the client wants and tell that to the freelancer and send the client the product, or is it a more complex process. I really need advice
How do I find out what the client wants? Is it a questionnaire type thing or do you straight up ask?
Yes, usually you send a brief/questionnaire to the client
day 15: Not really much to say, nothing happened yet i did more Instagram outreach, learned more about this service etc, As i said I have a clinic that wants to work with me but they take kinda long to respond. I setup a Linkedin Page but i don't know how to turn it into an offer page, do i just post the offer as a post or?
Not really, you need a personal Linkedin Page and a business page for your business. From the personal linkedin page, you can do outreach by sending connection messages, if they accept, then a message with the offer. You can use tools like linkedin sales navigator, send inmails and use automation tools like DuxSoup, but make sure to not abuse it as your Linkedin account might get suspended. With Linkedin Sales Nabigator you can do a very specific search.
Dear sis.i love your teaching that is great.this is day 2 pis sis the big problem i have is to get costomers.pis teach me.
instagram outreach is not working at all, cold emails too, what should i do to get clients?
or what are the best clients for animated explainers? I'm trying to get clients for that too, I'm messaging mostly real estate companies and people associated with them
i am starting drop servicing as if i am an agency and i want to send emails to potetial clients and ask them if they need logo design, video editing, articles and posts, SEO, data entry or voiceover recording. - formulate it to sound formal and trustful
Sounds great, good luck!
Thank you.
Hey Dylan! Great topic, one question - how do you make sure that those freelancers are capable of accurately present anatomical details, structures etc. How we can vauch for them?
You need to work with experienced freelancers who have examples and great reviews. Also, your client should provide some models, pictures, references etc. that would need to be recreated in 3D. Then, based on the client's feedback, they'd implement any necessary revisions.
I want to know how can i show my past work if i didn't have any, do i just ask my freelancers for him to maybe allow to use his work? But i don't know if they'd agree please help me out here😅
@DylanSigleyDropServicing is it still a niche at the moment where there is low competition?
Yes, this is still a great niche.
Lovely stuff
Day 9:
Today I'll focus on learning as much as i can about this service, how do i actually pay on fiverr, all the proccessess etc, I provided the clinic that maybe wants to work with me with samples and they said they were good so there's a chance, i messaged the freelancer that i will use to make the delivery about the production proccess and he said he just needs a script so, I'll figure it out
Also the agencies I'm messaging are not responding which is weird, only one responded and said their price is 30-40k per minute which is so much wtf
Yes, there are really expensive and 'fancy' agencies out there and they are also making money, so the idea of drop servicing is to be more reliable than freelancer but also cheaper than the expensive agencies while making sure the services you deliver are of high-quality.
please make a video on this
Hello good sir, great info! I just had one question tho, why would someone wanna place an order with us when they could practically get the same thing done directly from the freelancer for way cheaper?
In a perfect market all clients would just use the cheapest possible service at the highest level of quality. But if you know much about economics you’ll know this is never the case in reality. This is a market of differentiation. Your branding, strategy, marketing, and sales have a huge impact on the quality and quantity of clients that you get. For example, if I create an offer for a service helping retail stores get more repeat business then reach out to these stores over email, they will then evaluate that offer based on its merits. They aren’t going to put in the time and effort to go out there and review the thousands upon thousands of potential options. So, the first reason is market differentiation. The second reason is basic human nature (minimising time and effort). The third reason though is the most important, we are creating value through what we do. We aren’t simply connecting a freelancer with a client. We are creating a system through which our clients get a high-quality service with a minimum time and energy investment on their part. Going out and finding freelancers then managing that project is a lot of time and investment for the clients, they simply don’t have that time and energy to invest. I’ve had countless clients come to me and purchase my more expensive service simply because they worked with freelancers on Fiverr and had a bad experience, bad service, and low quality. So, not all clients are cheap, they want to work with the best company, the best offer, and that all comes down to strategy and marketing.
In the drop servicing business model, your primary objective is to identify and collaborate with exceptional freelancers who can deliver high-quality services. By leveraging their expertise and skills, you can establish a reputable online agency that offers top-notch services to clients. Over time, you can expand your range of services by partnering with more talented freelancers, thus broadening your agency's capabilities and enhancing its overall value proposition. Ultimately, your success in drop servicing hinges on your ability to consistently deliver exceptional quality services that meet or exceed your clients' expectations.
Here’s a few other reasons why companies often opt for agencies instead of freelancers:
- Expertise and Experience: Agencies often have a team of professionals with specialised skills and extensive experience in their respective fields. This means that they can offer a wider range of services and a higher level of expertise than an individual freelancer.
- Quality Control: Agencies have a quality control process in place to ensure that the work they deliver meets the highest standards. They also have multiple layers of review, so the work is checked and revised by multiple professionals before it is delivered to the client.
- Reliability: Agencies have a reputation to uphold, and they are more likely to be reliable and dependable than an individual freelancer. They have a team of professionals who can step in if one team member is unavailable, ensuring that projects are completed on time.
- Scalability: Agencies can scale their services up or down as needed to meet the demands of their clients. If a client needs more work done, an agency can quickly allocate more resources to the project. This is harder to achieve with individual freelancers who may have limited availability.
Hello Dylan, I've been watching your content for a while and I've figured how dropservicing works but I got 2 question. I'm currently doing competitor research for the 3D medical animation niche and I have found information such as estimated pricing, delivery time, process and service quality only by looking at their websites. Do you think I should get on a call with any of them and talk to them through email or am I okay to go with this information? Also I think it would be hard to come up with an imagenary project for that niche, since they will immedietly realise i'm not an expert in the space. Also, i'm worrying about the invoice. Normally you'd need to send the client an invoice besides the invoice they've gotten from PayPal or wise, but I can't do that since I don't legally own a company yet because I haven't made any money . Will I need to tell them that they will not get that invoice or will they not care? What would you do if you were in my place?
I also have the same question
But i think i can answer your question,You can make a it as a freelancer
Still trying, I'm mostly targeting clinics but I'm thinking if there is some other client i can target with this service
im so mentally tired from all of this though, I feel like i have done enough to get atleast 1 sell
Hey, did u made any sales yet? Im thinking about starting but wondering if it really works starting from zero
I have not yet sadly, i was actually very very close once but the clinic randomly stopped responding to me
I feel like it works I'm just a bit unlucky
But i think you should start even if it takes you 2 months to get sales its better to start earlier
PayPal,wise and stripe isn't available in my country also i don't have bank acc because I'm under 18, so my question is can i use payoneer for payments?
Yes, you can use Payoneer.
Do we need to do a sales call in 3d animation or can we communicate through WhatsApp and close the sale? For a 1000 dollar project.
Here's what you should know about phone calls and selling services:
Expensive Services: If you're selling costly, high-ticket services, clients will probably want to talk on the phone before buying. They want to be sure before spending a lot.
Cheaper Services: For less expensive services, clients might just buy directly from your website or be okay with just emails.
If you're worried about your English:
- Think about selling to people in your local market where you speak the language. There are successful companies in almost every country and there is often less competition than in an English speaking market.
- Once your business starts doing well, you could hire a commission-based salesperson who speaks English well. You can pay them a commission for each sale they make instead of paying them per hour or number of calls. However, to hire a salesperson you need to make sure your offer and marketing is good and that they are provided with an effective sales script.
- You can also partner with someone who’s good in English and would be able to handle that side of business.
- For written communication, make sure you’re using tools like Grammarly or check your messages in ChatGPT before sending them to your client.
So, depending on what you're selling and who you're selling to, phone calls might be necessary, but there are also ways to work around language barriers.
Yes, you can close deals via sales page and whatsapp or even just hire a commission only sales person
@@DylanSigleyDropServicing completely understand. Thanks for replaying ❤️
In the video where you relieve the niche you sald
'' 3D Animation for medical agencies. Does that mean we go and target our animation services to medical agencies?
Please clarify.
Thanks.
yes
Do we need to buy a domain and create a business email?
If you can, then yes, it's definitely recommended.
@@DylanSigleyDropServicing is it ok to use personal email because I don't have money to create a business email
Hey i was wondering about Payment methods for this. Could i use cashapp? I have a Cash Card and since im under 18, I cannot use Paypal
just do bank transfers
End of Day 1: I've set up my ig page, emailed and messaged various clinics, Got 1 reply and waiting for their decision if they wanna work with me based off of my portfolio which they said is promising, however they have not responded to me for a while. I'm kind of stressed but excited at the same time
Good luck to you and don't give up! You can use directories like Crunchbase, Yelp, Linkedin Sales Navigator, RocketReach, Apollo.io etc. to find potential clients too. You can search for lead generation softwares and use their free trials, etc. If your outreach is manual, focus on personalising the message as much as possible. Actually taking some time to review the company and figuring out how you can help them.
okay thanks so much, will use this information the best I can@@DylanSigleyDropServicing
Ok bro Now tell me where u got your portfolio from, he skipping the most important part..😭
@@yvl444this cant be a serious question bro use ur brain
Great job on your prospect even though it's one it means you did something right than most in here with their negative comments 😮 just keep your head up and believe in yourself and keep positive learn from your mistakes and shortcomings 😂 all the best .
P.s I don't believe in wishing anyone luck cause luck is for lazy people,😢 strong ones make their own luck 👍
ramadan mubarek bro
for dropservicing. If the client does not accept payment to me in advance
He wants to see the work I've done for him and then pay . how I deal with it ?
You just don't agree to work with him. You should receive at least 50% payment upfront to start the work.
@@DylanSigleyDropServicing thanks bro
Ramadan mubarek ❤️
Day: 19
I'm struggling to find a new job and that means I'll struggle to pay rent soon, I'm in contact with the clinic from Iran and they will want to order animations from me soon But It looks like it will take a while plus there are sanctions against Iran which means It will be even harder to recieve money, But I'll just keep going...
I'm not gonna lie I'm scared as I'm only 19 and got kicked out by my family not so long ago and barely can turn to anyone for help
wish me luck and all the best to anyone who's trying this with me ❤
I kinda don't know what to do... if anyone would have any advice i would be really grateful
@@Santiago-bl5pvhave u tried to create content for ur agency? to promote it on Facebook? or only in ig?
i think you have to focus on personalizing your message to the clinics@@Santiago-bl5pv
Want to partner ?
I’m trying to build a drop servicing agency as well!
how would you go about finding clients for this service?
Other than messaging instagram pages?
I’ve posted many videos on how to find clients in the past. I invite you to have a look at some of them on my youtube channel. In general, there are various marketing methods to find potential clients, both free and paid, which includes social media outreach, cold emailing, LinkedIn outreach, content marketing, paid advertising, online directories, networking, SEO, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator. It's important to research which approach will best suit your business needs and target audience. Identifying the target audience is the first step towards finding potential clients. Creating valuable content, paid advertising, and SEO can also help. Cold emailing can be a challenging but effective approach to reach out to potential clients, but it's important to comply with anti-spam regulations and only target those who are likely to be interested. Cold emailing and LinkedIn outreach are perfect for starting and can be done manually for free. Targeting specific industries and using advanced search filters are some ways to find leads for cold email marketing. LinkedIn Sales Navigator is a powerful tool that helps sales professionals find, engage, and sell to potential clients on LinkedIn. It can help identify potential clients, build and manage lead lists, get insights and recommendations, engage with potential clients, monitor and track engagement, and collaborate with the team.
@@DylanSigleyDropServicing Ended up finding your videos thank you Dylan, I’ve gotten a few people interested but I had one tell me “ It’s cheaper on fiver” though my prices aren’t high. how would you deal with these kind of people. My targetted clients are real estate agents.
Great video! I have no medical background whatsoever, so will I be able to do this? I'm worried about being able to accurately pass customer's needs to the freelancer, and I'm also worried that my lack of medical knowledge and English communication errors could lead to misunderstandings during the communication process. Because I think the nature of this work requires me to be able to express very abstract things.
Once you choose what services you want to offer, there's nothing stopping you from learning all about those services, both online but mostly through talking to the delivery teams. You don't need a medical background, your role is more of a marketer/salesperson and you just need to know what you're selling and what the benefits of your services are. I always ask my clients to submit feedback in written format in order to avoid any confusion and miscommunication for instance.
Do I need to make phone calls to close deals with customers when my English is not good?
Here's what you should know about phone calls and selling services:
Expensive Services: If you're selling costly, high-ticket services, clients will probably want to talk on the phone before buying. They want to be sure before spending a lot.
Cheaper Services: For less expensive services, clients might just buy directly from your website or be okay with just emails.

@@DylanSigleyDropServicing nice
how many of freelancer had to hire ?
It depends on what your services are.
How can I sell AI services?
USe the strategies on this channel
start of day 6: Bad news, I found out that my instagram got restricted and I can't send new messages to more clinics, I will focus on email outreach mostly, I'll try to personalize the emails as much as I can, Also I'll try to find out the competitors prices, I researched on google that 1 minute animation can vary in price from 5k - 25k so i just decided to sell the animations for 1500 - 2000. I also hope that instagram will unrestrict my account so i can send dms again
Nevermind, two clinics have responded to me already and said that my animations were very good so there's no point in me changing it now, I'll keep gonig with what I have. Also how do i pay on fiverr? Can i pay by paypal? or can i pay with wise somehow? or just my bank? What do i do after i get paid?
oops i responded to the wrong message
Instagram can restrict you if you're 'spamming', so you can't send the same message to multiple accounts and high in volume. On instagram it's best to personalise messages, that's why Linkedin outreach is much better. If you want to focus on cold emailing instead, i recommend woodpecker.co's guides and tutorials:
1. woodpecker.co/academy/cold-email/outbound-outreach-introduction?trk=academy_home_tiles-course_tile
2. woodpecker.co/guide/cold-email/
By the way, they have so many resources and articles and you can use that knowledge to your messages across social media too, not only emails, like:

@@DylanSigleyDropServicing
Hey Dylan. I'd like to work with something that I like and I know (music). So, drop servicing works in music production, jingle production or sound design?
You can drop service any service that can be delivered online and is in demand, meaning some companies, a specific niche or industry needs such services. You now need to do some research and see if there is a market for the services you'd like to offer, research your competition, etc.
Day 16:
Damn this Has become like my diary of some sort
But anyways i don't know what more can I do with my current resources i feel like I have done everything I could... I guess now I'll just wait on updates from the clinics i messaged if they wanna work with me, also some clinics i message take literally 2-3 days to respond which is kinda annoying.
Also in the meantime i gotta look for a job since the company i worked for shut down
My dream is to make this my main source of income but it's hard
Any updates this month? you can do it!
@@kevaughngolding9156 hey, thanks for the kind words, sadly no updates yet I'm trying to get sales without investing any money cos im broke, I've messaged many clinics, tried to optimize chat gpt to make it explain to the clinics the benefits it would give them and did my own social media posts on ig and offers but still nothing sadly, I'm slowly losing hope
Day 5: No clients till now, I had one clinic interested but they backed out, I'm feeling kinda down but imma still keep gonig nevertheless, Hope I'll get a client soon
Also i Can't setup a linkedin page cos i need "connections" or something idk what that is, i tried to connect with my other account on linkedin but it did not work
I got my first sale after 3 months of manually emailing decision makers every day because I was starting for free. I was working hard every day, correcting my mistakes, trying to improve, researching my competitors, seeing what they're doing. You need to stay persistent, work on your offer, your social media presence, your outreach copies, etc. and you will land clients consistently, beginnings are the hardest.
bruh moment
I tried so hard and still nothin
Well also i can't pay rent anymore and couldnt find any job yet i'm kinda fucked lol
Hi 1:32
Dht
Ç😂
talking a lot but helping not really, i cut but don´t get my money bag
listen harder then
Hey dylan, do I need a linkedin page or a website? Or can i just use my email
You can have all of the above. If you can't afford a website, just use linkedin, facebook and instagram. I talked about it on my recent live stream too: fb.watch/nMNholJVuQ/
Thanks so much, I might have my first client already, crazy how short it took to get my first response@@DylanSigleyDropServicing
Day 1 of trying this, about 30 instagram dms and emails sent, I'll keep going
I setup an Instagram page without having a website or a linkedin page, is that alright? also how long will it take me to get clients
I answer this question here: fb.watch/nMNholJVuQ/
Sir Dylan, Do you have an Instagram page, I'm new
Yes, I do: instagram.com/sigleydylan
please make a video on this
ok will do
