You say that you start a phone call with "hey! how's your day going?" FYI, when a stranger starts a call with "how are you doing today" or "how's your day going" I either hang up (knowing it's a sales call) or instantly put up a high guard. I would start with mentioning your name (not a company yet), telling them how you got their number (e,g, saw your website), and ask to confirm if they are so-and-so. This gets them talking without a guard.

Thank you Rob! Just used this in an email with this connection to a similar project angle. I'm a bit introverted too so I prefer to find a website that needs a lot of work and then email them with a really personal intro advising them kindly about the issue/s and how I can help them. It's worked well in the past - no phone calls! - and I think this will make it even better. Let's see if they want to meet! I enjoy your videos a lot and learn so much, thank you!

Great Kim. Keep in mind that a business website will only show a small portion of the possible problems too. Usually, there are a lot more problems behind the scenes than what you see upfront. So when possible try to get on the call and dig even deeper. Problems on the website are great but business problems are more urgent for them to solve and usually are linked to charging higher prices for you to solve.

To get a first project and break into a new industry, do you think this cold call or cold email pitch could be tweaked to "Hey, this is Fox, I'm a web designer and problem solver looking to help [niche] business owners like you get more sales. I found you on [source] and noticed your website has a few problems on it that could be preventing you from connecting with new clients. Could I send you what I discovered via email?" This way, the new web designer sidesteps the "did similar work for similar businesses" line and can go straight down the funnel you presented. And if the prospect asks later about previous results (after we're further down the funnel), the web designer can say "I actually haven't worked with your type of business before but if we end up working together I'd be willing to work for free in exchange for a case study after I help your business get more sales." Thoughts?
@FoxWebSchool

It doesn't have to be a similar business - focus instead on a similar problem... "Hey I just reached out to you because I have been working with another business that attracts customers online in a similar way. They got a serviced based business like you guys and we helped them double their sales over the last 3 months. I wanted to send you an email and show you..." "Service-based business" could be a tattoo artist, or a cleaning business, or a gym instructor, or an arcade. Just look for creative ways to make your past work seems relevant to them. What us important is that it seems like you have a reason to call THEM. They need to feel that this information (the call) is specific to their situation and valuable to gibe time and attention to.

Hi Rob, great video and very timely for my business as I'm about to start cold calling after a few projects. Quick question : for the follow-up email, do you use a template or do you write each email separately on a project-to-project basis ? If you're using a template I'd be very interested in your thought process. Thanks a lot for your content.

Hey Rob. First of all I loved your video it didn't really help me but I found your way really valuable and easy. But I'm from Greece and here the way our society works is that we are always 5 years behind from US in every aspect, What I'm trying to say is that in our society they don't really use the email and almost always they ignore any sales email. although we have this problem I tried it for a little period of time, I called them and after they gave me there email I sent wrote about what I do. I did it in 40 companies and nobody answered. Do you think I should move on to others ways or should I keep going? Thanks a lot for your time:)

This is the approach I have been using, although I like to send a Loom video audit and break some stuff down for them, just to make it more personal for them. Also because my only real project is my Agency's website and a website I built for my Mom who runs her own Spa. I'm not looking to really work for Spa's but since I have helped her out I might still bring it up. Also, I try and see if I can meet them in person since I'm only reaching out to local businesses, it's definitely more nerve racking than a call so that's why I have been somewhat reluctant asking to meet in person. Really I'm looking to land a solid, relevant project for the industries I'm targeting and make a case study for the email, that is the real missing piece for me. Also, does anyone have advice for visual content? A lot of businesses either don't have any custom images or the ones they have are terrible. I am not a photographer and I don't really know any but I think that could be a valuable service, however I do some marketing as well so I don't know if I want to learn photography. Should I learn or just find someone local and work with them?

Let me break that down into two parts: #1 - this part of your post caught my eye... "Really I'm looking to land a solid, relevant project for the industries I'm targeting and make a case study for the email, that is the real missing piece for me." ...what video could I make that would help the most with this? What has held you back on this?? #2 - images If you are working local then, for now, you could learn some camera basics and use a newer smartphone or basic DSLR. There are a ton of YT videos that can show you how to take great photos with simple gear. Another option is to reach out to local photographers on Instagram and ask them if they are interested in portfolio work for cheap or free. Some might also be struggling to get an example project and you can partner up. Later on, when the budgets get bigger you can either hire experts or invest in teaching yourself more and getting better gear. I have done both over the past few years.

@@FoxWebSchool Thanks for the reply. I think a great video you could make would maybe be how to make a case study. How to structure it, how to present results, etc. The only thing that's held me back is I haven't gotten a project in the industries I want to work with, I only created my site and a site for my Mom's Spa. I think I might want to have someone handle imagery for me for now. I'm bootstrapping and don't want to invest in a camera, I had one a while back but ended up selling it which I regret now. I do have a phone but I don't think it's going to offer the quality I'm looking for. Also, this would be a great video idea. Something that gives a general guideline for how you should get visual content for a business. I know it will vary widely but some general rules like what should the imagery focus on, what makes good hero images, etc would be really valuable.

Great video, thanks for posting. Question - how do you put urgency on the sale? I used to be in magazine sales and the 'secret ingredient' for a sales process is urgency, as it makes people act quickly and when you act quickly, it's (generally) only using emotion and not logic. So, do you have a few examples of urgency to use in your pitch that you've successfully used?

My main way is by finding a problem(s) that showing them the cost of now having it fixed ALREADY. If something is costing them money every day, or even actively damaging their business every day, then there should be a lot of motivation to fix it right now. Keep in mind - people are more motivated to protect what they already have than they are to get even more of something.

Rob suggests doing a free project so you can show your past work. Showing past work is the most valuable, but the same principle can apply in other ways. For example, anything that you share in common can be an opportunity to build rapport. You can try: "I saw your physiotherapy clinic focuses on helping seniors recover their mobility. My grandmother is currently in a physiotherapy program, she's been telling me about how helpful it is, and for me and the rest of the family, we consider it to be really valuable." "I'm from X country but I spent some time in X state." "I have a client in your area, I was doing some research on the community and found your business on Facebook." "My friend runs a business similar to yours, he was telling me that getting repeat clients is key but difficult to automate. How difficult is it for you to get repeat clients?" Think about what these messages do: 1. They generate likeability based on a connection. 2. They demonstrate you understand something about their location/market/business. 3. They build trust through that understanding. 4. They make you memorable. (It gets the prospect to think: "It's not a random person who spammed us, it's a friendly person whose friend runs a business just like mine!")
