HOW To Get Clients
Once you get good at a skill—whether it’s copywriting, creating thumbnails or whatever
It’s now time for you to actually get clients because if you don’t get clients you’re not gonna make any money
It doesn’t matter how good you are,
If you don’t get clients you’re not gonna make ANY money
So you need to sit there and think okay
How the fuck do I actually get myself some clients? Okay?
And now the answer is—you’ve got paid ads, you’ve got organic content which is organic marketing, and then you’ve got outreach
Now you also have referrals but I’m not going to talk about that right now in the beginning,
Because not too many people are going to know you
Or have bought your product or service, so not yet
So you’ve got,
Paid traffic
Organic marketing
And outreach okay?
Now paid ads and paid ads it’s difficult because you need money to pay for that
So let’s not even talk about that, reduce it to 2 main ways
Posting content (which is organic/inbound)
Or outbound (outreach, cold DM’ing, cold calling, whatever you want to call it)
Or door knocking, whatever
They’re the 2 ways of making money, making sales, okay?
So how do you get clients?
First, you have to get good at something
So let’s say you’re good at creating thumbnails and YouTube videos
Which is the little picture preview you see of a video before clicking to actually watch that video
So you click on the picture if it’s a good picture
So by having a good thumbnail, you’re gonna get more views on your video
It’s something I need to improve on my own videos, right
So by having a good thumbnail creator it’s actually very important to double or triple your views, based on how good that thumbnail is
So you’re providing a real tangible bit of value
Right,
So your offer is very clear—you can double or triple someone’s views based on how good your thumbnails are
So why would someone not pay you a lot of money if you can show them how much better your thumbnails are than the ones they’re currently getting
Right?
So let’s say you get really good at making thumbnails because you spent 100 hours, 500 hours on learning how to make thumbnails for 6 months of your life
You get REALLY good at it
Then you can train other people how to get good
Then you can create your own agency
Have people underneath you, like I said in the e-mail yesterday
So, because you’re good at getting thumbnails done
When you outbound to people, outreach, cold call, and speak to these people
You’re gonna have way more confidence and conviction in your self
That’s point 1
And point 2, that’s what you need to do
You NEED to outbound and message as many people as possible and let them know about your service
Let them know about your product, and they have way more chance of buying from you
Because they can actually see you’re good
You can show social proof, previous customers you’ve worked with,
You can show testimonials
Right?
And also you can start posting content about why thumbnails are very important
If I was a thumbnail editor—I would spend all my time on social media talking about thumbnails on YouTube, why it’s so important to have a good guy make them for you
And why they increase your videos by double the views
And this is the truth—If I saw 1 of you in my Telegram channel talking about thumbnails all day long on YouTube, I would DM you
And I’d be like yo bro how much do you charge for a thumbnail
Can you do me a free thumbnail? Let’s just see how it does
How long have you been doing thumbnails for? I’d just strike a conversation with you
Because you actually have something to offer me
Just like how I would go to the guy willing to cut my hair, the barber
Because he can do something for me
I’m not just going to talk to a random stranger for no reason
Right?
NEW MONEY Kuala Lumpur 🇲🇾
This whole world is based on utility and value
If someone can do something for you, you like them
When the pilot flies the plane, I like him because he gets me to my destination
When the Uber driver drives my car, yeah i’m happy he’s getting paid because he’s doing something for me
He’s driving the car to transport me form this location to that location
That’s pure value
Everyone understands it when it comes to big big business like planes and uber drivers
Restaurants
Haircuts
And yeah maybe you can’t start a restaurant on zero capital living with your parents, sure, I agree
But there’s nothing stopping you from doing websites for people
Doing copy for people
Script YouTube videos for people
Help set up VSL (video sales letter) for people
There’s nothing stopping you from doing the things above I just mentioned, and then just being able to sell 2 people who need those things
Because at times, even I need those things, and I do need those things
Right, so it all just depends on what you need
Like I currently need a VSL and I’m sure if I came across somebody that’s the best at VSL’s and has been doing it for a long time,
And showed me that they’re good at sales
And shows me that it’s going to make me way more back in return
Then I’m sure I’d pay them a couple grand
I’m sure I’d pay them
Right?
I’ve paid someone $15,000 dollars for a website like 4 months ago and I’ve not used the website because I’ve been lazy with it and I don’t want a website, truthfully
But I’ll get back to that at some point
It’s not that I’ve been scammed, he’s actually been following up with me and I just kept delaying it because I cba, right
It was so far down my priority list I just couldn’t give a fuck
But the point I’m making, right
Once you’re good at something, NOW you have something you can offer to the world
It’s just about getting people to know what you have to offer
And not everyone is going to like your offer
Some people are going to be like “Oh you make thumbnails for a living? You must be a fucking loser”
“You’re stupid”
“You’re an idiot”
But it doesn’t matter what they say, what they think because YOU know what’s up
You know the value you provide to clients
Like you can make $20k per month making thumbnails for people, obviously
Right?
Think about it
If you create a bunch of thumbnails for a bunch of people
And then you get repeat clients because someone’s going to hire you for more than 1 video
They’re gonna hire you for every video
Then you’re gonna make A LOT OF FUCKING MONEY
But the reason why you don’t believe you can make a lot of money is because you’re sat there at home thinking
“Oh no thumbnails are such a small job, such a small task”
“No one is gonna pay me for thumbnails”
YOU WILL get paid for thumbnails, you just have to get good at making thumbnails so that people can see the value inside of you
Simple
