Selling things is basically making an wild claim/promise and showing it works by presenting social proof

Here’s how to do that.

Your only job when you start a biz is to get social proof.

Nothing else.

It’s a requirement.

I’ll assume you have no network, no followers, and minimal capital of any kind
You will obviously be using cold email because it’s cheap.

You need an offer with 2 things:

1. Quantifiable promised result

2. Guarantee you’ll get those results
“I’ll get you 10 appointments or you pay nothing”

“I’ll get you a 3x return on ad spend or you pay nothing”

“The ad creatives I make you will perform at 3x ROAS or you pay nothing”
Most of the time if you don’t perform but maintain good communication with the client they won’t even want a refund.

This entails explaining if something isn’t working, and telling them your plans to fix it

Utter honesty and transparency
Gotta stay away from people making less then $20k/mo as clients they are poor

They’re financially insecure with investments. Easy to sense over the phone whether they’re competent or not

The “yeah I tried this before but couldn’t get it going, I need an expert” type is perfect
You need to either

1. Work on performance basis

2. Have a 100% money back guarantee

You must remove all risk for them since you have no social proof
You need to make it ABUNDANTLY clear to them they are your first client and you’re trying to get social proof.

You’re not lying about this. Say it.

Things you’ll document:
> Quite literally every action you take on running their campaign

> Loom videos explaining what you’re doing

> Loom videos explaining what works and what doesn’t work from execution

> At the end, if it works, recorded zoom interview with client
The zoom interview’s function is to ask how much money they made.

It needs to go into detail about the exact quantification of the return in investment they had.

That’s it, nothing else
This is not hard.

What IS hard is having the consistency to send cold emails every single day for 3 weeks with no bites.

Most people on earth can’t commit to something, so when you do, that’s where all the money is.
“Make $10k/mo in 1 month” is very unrealistic for somebody who has not done business before.

Probably 3-4 depending on how much you work.

It’s not so much needing raw hours, but more so putting in consistent effort to become competent.

Can you do it or no?
“It’s not that simple”

Yes it is

When you sell agency services

Or any kind of done-for-you service

It must ACTUALLY be done-for-you

You need to handle everything

But some of you make a critical mistake I’ll explain now

THREAD
*You sell Facebook ads as a service*

Do you make the creatives?

“Oh no the client has to make the creatives”

Then what exactly is the point of working with you?

Obviously making the creatives is the hard part and is what people are interested in
*You sell e-commerce email marketing*

Do you design the emails?

“Oh no we give the client guidance on how their designer should design the emails”

Then what is the point of working with you?

> Learn skill

> Craft offer with quantifiable promised result and guarantee

> Cold email until at $20k/mo

> Use capital you now have to invest into organic growth/ads

Same thing every time
Particularly organic

Building community around your product/niche means you can launch things FAST without need capital for testing

You just send some tweets and see if it works

Having audience is wildly useful
Read this thread to learn about quantification

Precisely nobody is buying your offer if you can't explain what it actually does.

1. Quantify

2. Guarantee.

Here's how to do that.

Let's say you sell web design.

"I'll make you a pretty website"

Laziest offer of all time.

Zero communication of value
If you want to ACTUALLY make money you have to quantify what the website will do.

The website's function is to INCREASE CONVERSIONS.

"This site will double your sign ups or you pay nothing"

I spend like $6k/mo on rent, food, and everything I otherwise feel like doing at any moment so by definition you need about $72k/yr to do whatever you want as a single person (after tax)

This is with living in expensive real estate marketing (Tampa right now, Miami in 2 weeks)
market*
Assign $100k/yr to discretionary spending the rest above that is wealth creation

There is a category of people here who say "never work for free get a retainer"

Which is the absolute most garbage advice on Earth.

Astoundingly small % of people will give you money unless they're CERTAIN they'll get a return

Which brings me to this
If you are selling a service the ABSOLUTE ONLY THING the person cares about is getting a POSITIVE RETURN on their investment.

THAT IS IT.

Nothing else matters

It is astonishing just how little the bare minimum is

> Create landing page
> Scrape some emails
> Write a script
> Send it

If you even just send a SINGULAR email you have accomplished more than 98% of all dudes who go into business
