Before I explain, understand YOU don't need these to get started:
funnels
lead magnets
sales pages
ad campaigns
paid traffic channels
crazy logos
professional websites
Those are things you can implement once you've passed $15k/mo.
Now let's begin!
1. You need some skill to offer
>> FB ads
>> Google ads
>> SEO
>> Web design/dev
>> Email marketing
>> Social media management
>> Sales closing
>> Blog writing
>> Video production
>> etc.
Learn on your own or outsource to a reputable person/brand.
Your skill needs to directly affect the number of customers, dollars, or leads your customers get per month.
There needs to be a direct result from your service.
Example:
SEO - more visibility, more traffic, more sales
FB ads - more leads, more sales, more traffic to a page
2. Do your market research
Believe me when I say that 75% of your success is in the market research.
What your clients struggle with.
What is their awareness to solutions.
How willing are they to make changes.
Understand who your prospects are and go as deep as you can.
Without doing market research you're shooting in the dark.
You will wonder why your offer doesn't convert.
Then you'll think your service is not needed.
Then you'll pivot.
Rinse and repeat.
Research is fun when money is involved, which it is.
3. Craft an irresistible offer
An irresistible offer stems from market research.
It answers the "burning problem" that your clients face.
It alleviates the nagging issue.
"Land clients every single day WITHOUT ever having to get on the phone again."
An irresistible offer makes your client say "I NEED THIS".
If you just list features and cool add-ons that your service provides you will have close to a 0% conversion rate.
Your offer needs to benefit them, fix their most annoying issue, and make them a tangible return.
4. Outreach
When you do the outreach, you don't need a funnel, crazy landing page, and paid ads running.
>> FB direct message businesses (made a video on this)
>> LinkedIn direct message
>> Twitter DM
>> Cold email
All incredibly powerful.
In fact there are even more ways to snag just your first client without spending a dime!
Ok so how do you get on the phone and convince them to hand you $1-3k?
Diagnose like crazy.
Give them actionable advice.
Understand their current situation.
Focus on their future goals.
Turn your offer into the prescription.
Less selling, more prescribing.
6. Leverage results + testimonials
Ask every client for a testimonial.
Use them for your outreach.
Use them for one line success stories in emails, DMs, etc.
It'll do ~10-20% of the selling for you.
Easiest way to position yourself as the "expert".
7. Repeat the process 3x
Don't make the mistake of trying to automate a process that's not proven.
Get a client.
Get another one.
And another one.
Once you have a proven process, find a way to automate it.
Systems come after results.
It will take work.
8. Stack, stack, stack
$1500/mo. skill needs
10 clients for $15k/mo.
$2000/mo. skill needs
8 clients for $16k/mo,
$2500/mo. skill needs
6 clients for $15k/mo.
$5000/mo. skill needs
3 clients for $15k/mo.
Get to work!
This is ALL you need to be hitting $15k/mo.
Enjoy!
