So in this article I’m going to be talking about the top seven best niches, in my opinion, for 2020 and beyond, if you’re starting a drop servicing business now all of these services, they are easy to find fulfillment providers for us so that you’re not doing all The work yourself they are high ROI. They get a high return on investment for clients, because of the way that these services are structured and they also have three keys in common right in these creeks these three keys.

Then it doesn’t matter what service or what niche that you pick to deliver. You want to make sure that they have these three keys number one is it’s directly tied to the growth or the revenue or money-making ability of the client or of the business owner? Right now, why do we want this? Well, if you, if you have a service that can help a business owner, make more money or grow their business, that’s what every business owner wants.

So if you have a service that can help them do that, then it’s a no-brainer for them right number: two is recurring revenue. So if you have a service now that clients pay you over and over and over for because they need that service over and over and over then you are. Your life is going to be so much easier because you don’t have to get new clients every single month right. We have clients that have been with us for nearly two years now and who are paying us four figures per month for the same service because they need it over and over and over again.

So you want to make sure that you pick a service that has a recurring revenue. Opportunity number three is product. Aiza Bowl, I know that’s a mouthful, but what does that mean? It basically means that you have a service where every client that you onboard gets the same core service right. You don’t want to be offering twenty different services for all this custom work where we’re flying it comes on, get something completely different than client being clients see right, so you want to have a product.

I service, where every client that you bring on, gets basically the same course service in the same system that you offered to all your other clients, okay, so those are three things and we’re going to jump in right now to these seven and best niches, these best Services to deliver if you’re starting a drop servicing business in 2020. So let’s hop right in already so we’re in my Google Doc, my computer here and I’m going to walk you through the seven best drop servicing niches for 2020.

If you’re just getting started in this business right now, if you need help with ideas, if you don’t want to pick anything on this list – and you want more ideas – go to Klutch co. This is a it’s kind of like a marketplace for different types of agencies and different types of services – digital services right. So if you’re going to clutch that Co, you can see here on the right hand, side you can you can click down the services and solutions.

You can see different categories of services, you can click into these and you can. You can do some research right if you want to see what types of services and how much people are charging there’s $ 100,000. I’r not saying you’re going to charge that, but you can. You can do competitor research and you can look at what people are paying for and buying and what they’re charging for it right. So there’s a great place to do to get ideas.

Do some research on competitors and see how to position your drop servicing business? Your drop servicing agency when you’re getting started okay, so that’s clutch scope. Now, let’s jump back into here and let’s get right into it. Now all these niches they’re not in any particular order. These are just seven, pretty solid niches that fit all these three keys here. That I would recommend – or I would get into if I was starting from scratch – okay, so let’s jump into it right now, number one is Facebook advertising, so purchasing ads on Facebook to generate leads customers and brand awareness.

Now, if you’re here reading this article, you probably know what Facebook advertising is right, you’re targeting the unpaid things on like interest and demographics and job titles and income level. Your target on things like that to generate leads customers and brand awareness for business owners. Right now beat top local comm. I’r going to show you examples of each of these be top logo comm. I no the founder of this Nick Robbins he’s a friend of mine and they focused the reason I like their Facebook advertising agency is because they focus on a specific vertical or industry.

So you can see here they focus on pain, management and stem-cell therapy. Doctors and Clinics right, so what that does is it strengthens your message. It makes it easier to get clients, because your focus on that specific vertical and that industry right and they also developed a system – a predictable system, specifically for pain, doctors right Facebook, advertising system for pain, doctors. This is going to help you get clients a lot easier when you’re tailored specifically to a certain vertical or industry, because you’re going to be able to speak their language and you’re going to have a system tailored to them.

Okay, so that’s why I like be top local. They do multi millions in revenue every single year with just one service, a Facebook advertising service and a system, and I highly recommend, if you’re, going to create any one of these services. Actually, you focus on a vertical or industry to make your life a lot easier and more profitable. Okay. So that’s number one: Facebook advertising number two: Google PPC, Google pay-per-click.

This is a little different than Facebook you’re, not targeting based on interest levels you’re targeting more by bidding on keywords. So, instead of targeting a certain interest you’re targeting on things like stem cell therapy, Seattle stem cell therapy Florida when people type these these words into the Google search engine they’re going to come on to your clients, websites right. So this is bidding on keywords in Google to generate leads customers and brand awareness.

Now this is a website that I found a service that I found called kudu IO and they do Google PPC and they have product sized offerings packages for different levels or different ad spend right. So I can go here. Let me go back to their homepage. Real quick: this is what a Google PPC ad. If you don’t know what that is, that’s what this is, if you type in roofers or roofers in Seattle, or something like that, it shows up right here, an ad like that.

So that’s! So that’s what you’d be offering as a service is to help business owners get more leads and customers by setting up these little ads here right go to pricing, you can see they’re different packages. They have three different packages for different ad spins right up to five thousand up to ten thousand, so you can offer this as a service for a specific, vertical or industry and offer from packages here that are productized by limiting the ad spend budget here right.

So there’s so many different ways you can package this up this stuff up and I’m going to create more articles on down on productizing things, but this is just a article to give you an idea of the seven best niches and services to offer right. So this is Google PPC here. Number three is LinkedIn marketing and LinkedIn lead generation. So this is what my agency growth response is based on, which is connecting and using direct outreach and content to generate leads clients and brand awareness.

Now, when we first started, we modeled after this company here lead cookie calm and our service is pretty similar to this. We, you can see their process right here. We optimized our clients profiles, we send outbound connection requests, we send a drip messaging sequence to anyone who accepts that and our goal is to help our clients generate more leads and more sales appointments and more phone calls with whoever their target audience is whoever their ideal Client is okay, so we help them do that through LinkedIn, connecting and sending messages and growing their network and posting content.

Okay, so you can see here, you can do some research, what they offer their pricing, let’s see so a thousand dollars or 950 a month and here’s the deliverables. We have a very similar service to this. We have two different packages as well. You can see what’s being offered here, okay, so this is LinkedIn marketing, LinkedIn, lead generation, number four SEO search engine, optimization pretty much. Everyone knows what SEO is right, but it’s optimized.

If you don’t know what this is its optimizing person’s website and their keywords or their social media profiles to drive organic traffic leads and customers to their business right now again, you’re going to see the key for a lot of these things is focusing on a vertical. So you can see ranking see, oh here they have an SEO service, an SEO agency. They focus specifically on personal injury law firms right so they’re, not just saying I offer SEO to every single industry out there.

They focus specifically on personal injury law firms and I think they do around five million a year in revenue because they’re so focused on a specific, specific, vertical and industry. So that’s the power of really focusing in on a vertical is your message? Is stronger you’ll? Make more money or more profitable, because you’re focused on creating your entire business around a certain industry and speaking directly to them and helping them right in creating a them around that? Okay.

So this is rankings not IO again the juice SEO for law firms in the personal injury space and they do multi millions a year in revenue, because that number, five social media management, creating scheduling, analyzing and managing content across multiple and various social media platforms to drive Brand awareness, traffic leads and customers. This is social, vantage comm and you can see the different packages that they offer here, the only difference or the only change.

I guess I would do for him for them and I don’t know what their revenue levels are or whatever is you see how they’re they’re pretty generic right? It’s the seamless social media hire for small businesses and teams, I might say, maybe social, media management for restaurants, social media management for software companies, social media management, for I don’t know home home-based businesses, our home contractors, or something like that right.

So you want to tailor it to a vertical and your your message is going to be so much stronger and you’re going to have better case studies because it’s going to be all from a specific industry. But you can see here: they’re different packages, they’re different deliverables, they’re posting to platforms like Facebook and Twitter and curating content and creating some content and growing the different social media profiles by posting content on them consistently.

Okay, so there’s a highly valuable, highly profitable service, because you can outsource it for pretty cheap, but it’s very valuable to a lot of small business owners because they want help managing their social media. They don’t know how to create content. They don’t know how to post content. They don’t know how, how and when to do it right. So if you can help them with this you’re going to help them get more leads and brand awareness for their business and they’re happy to pay for this okay.

So that’s social media management number six Instagram advertising Instagram marketing, so this is using paid advertising or organic growth strategies to grow, someone’s Instagram presence and their profile to generate more brand awareness. Traffic leads and customers. Okay. So this is an example. Here am fluence calm. You can see they’re different packages here, 129 dollars all the way up to three hundred dollars a month.

They help you get more organic followers. They help you to engage with your audience right. It’s a cert, it’s a done-for-you type of service where they help you to grow. Your Instagram grow your business on the platform. Okay, so that’s instagram, marketing, instagram growth. I guess instagram advertising is very similar to facebook. Advertising you’re. Just posting your your purchasing ads, based on things like interests on instagram, to generate more leads and customers and you’re paying for that as a service right.

So that’s the difference between an instagram advertising and instagram marketing. If I kind of like be organic types of things to start with, because it’s more profitable and I can still get them an amazing result right. So that’s up to you what you want to pick it’s easy to find white label providers to do either of these things here. Okay. Lastly, content creation and content marketing in the last few years, like creating content and content marketing has blown up because it’s it’s proven hugely valuable.

It takes some time to get traction with it, but it’s so important that you have a content strategy in place for basically for any business and any personal brand. It’s so important to have a content strategy in place. So this consecration and content marketing is creating a marketing content to attract and convert leads and customers and brand awareness for businesses, and this is an example here audience ups.

Com. They do done-for-you email list content and also lead magnet and blog article content right. So their message: better content, better customers, they grow your audience, your email lists and customer base with done for your content right, so there’s an amazingly, profitable and also amazingly valuable service for any business, any personal brand, any individual who’s trying who has a business and wants To make more money online content is such a key part of that okay, so you can see they’re different packages here, standard lights and light plus, and you can see what they offer here – lead magnets research and planning draft you’re drafting their articles new articles.

Every two weeks they edit it they get your your images for it, content upgrades email, newsletters, 10 sócio posts, so they handle a lot of your content. They do a lot of the heavy lifting for you through an all-in-one service here. Okay, again, you can outsource this. A lot of you are probably looking at this like. I have no idea how to outsource this. Well, there’s a lot of white label providers that will do this as a service for you and you just collect the difference from whatever you charge, the client for okay.

So that’s that’s! The goal of drop servicing is to find services that you can outsource so that you don’t have to spend all of your time and energy doing and learning how to do the service yourself. You all you have to do is start the business up. You get a client, you outsource the work to people who are specialists and highly skilled and delivering any of these niches or these services, and you just focus on managing the client, getting more clients and growing the business right.

So I hope this is helpful again. I just went over the seven different niches. Let me go over them. One more time here: number one: Facebook, advertising number two: Google PPC, Google, pay-per-click number three LinkedIn marketing or LinkedIn lead generation. Number four is SEO number five is social media management? Number six is Instagram advertising or marketing, or growth services and number seven content creation content marketing.

These are the seven best niches, in my opinion, for 2020 and eon. If you want to start a drop servicing business from scratch – and you want have the best possible chance at success in getting clients easily and growing your profits and growing your business okay, so I hope this was. How will for you guys, remember these seven niches, go back and read it again if you need to make sure that you’re abiding by these three keys here, if you’re not going to pick any one of these services and if you need inspiration and ideas and help Go to pledge code to do some research on ideas and other digital services being offered by other agencies in the niches that you want to get into okay.

Email Marketing: How To Grow Your Email List From 0-1000+ Subscribers (GROW 3 ASSETS AT SAME TIME!)

In the morning, you grab your computer, your laptop your iPad Pro your surface pearl. Whatever you use to do your daily work on you type out a quick 200 to 500 word email. You send that out to your list and within minutes you start to see sales rolling in for your products and your services right, and that is the beauty of having an email list, is it’s kind of like being able to write yourself a check every single day Or whenever you want, whenever you hit the send button? Okay, so an email list, it’s one of your most powerful acids and I don’t care how many people say: it’s dead or email is dying.

It’s not dying, it is like the it’s like your identity on the internet. Everybody has an email that they check pretty much on the daily. So I want to show you in this article one of the most important aspects about having an email list and that is being able to build and grow that list. So, as you see on the screen here, this is active campaign. This is the email service provider that we use. We have.

We just started growing this list at the end of February of this year, February, 2020. So near the end of the month. We started growing this list and we have three thousand four hundred and twenty subscribers. After just a few months, it’s it’s July, ok, so Ron, you know four and a half months, or so we were able to grow it to three thousand four hundred and twenty subscribers. Now this is a pretty small list right.

This is relatively. If you ask anyone like an internet marketing or digital marketing bill, they’ll say this is a small list and it is but it’s a it doesn’t need to be huge for you to rake in big-time profits. If you have like an engaged list – and you have good products and services, so I’m going to show you here. This is our stripe account. In the month of June, we generated twenty two thousand five hundred and nine dollars and sixty cents – and we just launched this this business in at the end of February as well, when we launched this this email list, and this isn’t including PayPal.

So we have another. Seven thousand dollars, or so in PayPal from the month of June, so this is closer. The amount that we’ve generated in June was closer to thirty thousand dollars, just under thirty thousand dollars from a three thousand four hundred and twenty person list. Okay, so that’s around almost ten ten dollars per subscriber on our list right. This is an insanely, powerful tool that you have more acid that you have now.

What I’m going to show you that’s different in this article is the way that I personally am growing my list and works especially well. If you are a content creator or info publisher or you create any kind of content and you’re you’re you’re, putting a price tag on and you’re selling info products or courses or ebooks or whatever it is, this is going to work, especially well for you, okay. So what I have here is a strategy for, if you don’t have any email list, yet we’re going to help you change that and show you how to go from zero to a thousand subscribers on your email list.

If you already have a thousand subscribers, I’m going to tell you how to go from a thousand to ten thousand. If you want right using the strategy that I’m using right now day in and day out to grow my list. Okay and it’s very simple: there’s it starts with a traffic source. I personally love YouTube, because once you create a article, it can be viewed for years and you don’t really have to touch it just get to put into the algorithm the search engines on YouTube and people can view it every single day for years and years and Years to come, okay, so you create it once and it’s kind of like this acid that continues to live over time and generate you more views and traffic and leads over time.

So my traffic source, my favorite one, is YouTube. You can use whatever you want we’re going to drive them to a niche specific Facebook group. I want to show you what that looks like and I’m going to show you why that’s so powerful and then from the Facebook group going to drive them to our email list. Okay, now the reason I do it this way is it’s helping me grow three different assets all at once, right, it’s kind of like killing three birds with one stone, I’m growing my youtube blog, I’m growing my facebook group and then I’m growing my email list, all At the same time, or that, so I love this strategy here that I’m using so I’m going to show you what this looks like.

This is a YouTube article July 8th. This is I’m actually filming this in July 8th. I just posted this article today and, as you can see in the description, there’s a link to join my free Facebook group on starting a six-figure online service business. Okay, now that’s! This is a completely different conversation: how to start a Facebook group. But if you want to start a Facebook group, a quick tip is make sure that you have a very specific outcome or a reason to join the group right.

So if someone wants to start a six-figure online service, business they’re going to join this group right and that’s what this group is for, I also have here in the comments I pinned comment on every article that says like this article. I do live trainings like this into my free face for a group join here, and they just click on this and what happens is they’re going to see a page that says join this group, we’re going to click join and it’s going to show them here.

Different questions that they need to fill out to join the group. Ok, so these are the three questions that I asked upon joining the first one is a segmentation, a qualification question, so it asked what’s up what type of a business do you run and who do you serve, and this helps me get a feel of the person In their background, if they have any business experience, they’ll say here: why are you running a successful agency or I run a successful consultancy whatever they run and they’ll talk about the niche that they work with? Ok, so this is kind of a segmentation qualification question to help me know who exactly is joining the group.

The second thing is, is my lead magnet, so is that it says, enter your email only if you want or five-step winning formula that took us from 0 to 7 clients in 30 days, it’s a cheat sheet, so they put in their email address and I’m going To show you why this is awesome, just a second and the last question is: how did you find this so it could be. I have different sources of traffic LinkedIn. I have Facebook search.

I have my youtube blog. I have my email list from four previous subscribers right, so I want to know where they’re coming from most people. Eighty percent of people will come from my youtube articles. So that’s how I’m focusing extra hard on creating those YouTube articles. So we have the qualification question here. We have the question that gets them. It gives them the lead, magnet if they’re interested and grabs their email address, and then it asks them where they came from.

How did they find this? So I know the referral source? Okay, so why is this so awesome? Well, first, off I’m making one article per week, one or two articles per week that that grows my YouTube blog right. I have nine thousand nine point, five, four subscribers right now and it drives them to my it grows. My blog, of course, but it drives them to my Facebook group right they join my facebook group.

I think we have how many people do. We have two thousand eight hundred eleven members right now and it also grabs their email address right. You just saw it ask them for their email address in exchange for a lead magnet, so I grabbed their email address from there. They get put into this sequence here. This is an automated campaign where they often you can see here s FD s, Facebook group lead magnet optin, they get tagged for this, lead, magnet opt-in and they get put into an email nurturing sequence, a welcome sequence right.

So first they get their cheat sheet and then they get a series of different emails. That’s designed to sell my products, I have a front end offer that’s an e-book called six-figure drop servicing and I sell that e-book through these emails right. So I have seven different emails that go out that pitches them or offers them my ebook. I think it’s, oh, it’s eight different emails that goes out, okay or actually nine here so see, as you can see quite a few emails that go out and nurtures them and and introduces them to myself and my brand and who I am and what I do And of course, it’s trying to get the sale for my e-book getting them to become a go from being a prospect to a customer okay.

So what is going on here? Why is this so powerful, especially if you’re an info publisher, you’re selling, any kind of ebooks or courses or you’re selling services as well? This could work very well for services, I’m actually rolling this out for for my agency, email marketing services. So what’s happening again, we have the YouTube blog source of traffic right. I just post a article every week and it has links to join my facebook group in the description and the comments they join.

My facebook group they give me their email address. They tell me who they are. I get to see exactly who’s joining my group and be unable to segment them based on their experience level from there they get put into my email list. Here they get put into a sequence. That’s automatically designed to turn them from a prospect into a paying customer on my front end offer and from there my email list grows.

I have around 20 people that join my email list every single day from this automated campaign, okay, so gross every single day. Around 20 people join my email list from this little sequence here: right: YouTube: article niche Facebook group email us at growth bar around 17 to 20 people every single day. Now the other powerful thing, the reason I’m able to generate so many sales is, as you can see here every day I am posting, I’m posting, let’s see if we can jump in here, I’m posting an email right, so seven, seven eight, which is today, I posted One I missed yesterday because L is on the road, but basically every single day, I’m posting an email right.

I’r writing up a very short. You know these are not very long. Emails I’ll show you this one real, quick, okay, this is less. I think this one was around 150 words or self K, so you can see very short, not long emails. They don’t need to be very long. I like to keep it within 200 to 500 words, and I send this out, try to send it out every single day. Bren! That’s! This is what generates you sales so, as you saw earlier 3400.

Oh, I just got a subscriber just now: 3421 subscribers on my email list was generating 30,000 dollars per month around nine to ten dollars per email subscriber okay. So if you can actually implement this right, have a traffic source again, I like YouTube. I recommend YouTube if you’re comfortable with growing your blog, and it helps in so many different ways other than just growing your email. Let’s try to build your brand, your authority.

It of course, helps you to get sales if you’re, offering good products and services, but you’re also able to use it to siphon traffic into your Facebook group and your email list as well and grow all these three platforms and these three assets all at once. Okay, so if you’re looking to get your first 0 to 1000 email list, subscribers try to strategy out. Okay, have a traffic source again, I recommend YouTube, but if you want to use LinkedIn and to a lead, magnet or just go straight to your Facebook group, that’s fine as well, but this is the strategy that I’m using here to grow all three of these platforms.

All at once YouTube to niche specific Facebook group to an email list and from there I’m emailing daily different offers and different products and services that I have ok. So I hope this was helpful for you guys if it was giving me a like. If you have any questions comment below this is only about growing your email list. I will have more articles in the future about writing the actual emails and setting up automations and setting up sequences.

But yes, this is a very powerful strategy. If you actually implement it, it’s not a get-rich-quick overnight thing I never post get-rich-quick overnight stuff, but it’s very, very powerful, as you saw that I showed you in this article so grow all these try to sell yo you’ll grow 3 different assets all at once. If you copy it exactly how I’m doing it here and future articles I’ll show you more on actually writing the emails than sending up automations and setting up sequences okay.

So that’s it for this article I’ll see you guys on the next one.

So that’s that number two is to create a list of prospects who fit that ICP step. Number three is to create a messaging sequence: a cold email, messaging sequence designed to generate appointments right. So we have. We usually have three to four messages that go out, so we have the main message that goes out, and then we have three two to three follow-up cycle after that right now.

The goal of these emails is to generate an appointment. It’s not to get a sale on the spot right, we’re nuts we’re not sending someone a link to buy now we’re sending them an email, we’re asking them if they want to get on the phone to learn more about what we have to offer right.

Where are they located? What’s the geography well they’re, located in the USA in Europe in Australia, we actually just started with the USA, though just to keep it simple, and that was a big enough pool for us. The target company size. How big are these companies, so we actually started with 11 to 50 employees? Okay, so how many employees are in these companies? I recommend you stick under 50 employees.

If you’re brand new, the bigger up you go, the harder or the longer the sales cycle is right. So you want to target the small business size, people who are in that, like 11 to 50, employee range, okay, job titles, who are you targeting? Well, we mostly started with founder level, but we also were targeting once we went through founders, we’re also targeting C CEOs. Chi, Sigma Chi chief executive officers and CMOS chief marketing officers right.

These are all people who can benefit or want to have a conversation about our service right. So we, these are all the titles for you. It’s most likely going to be like the business owner right or like if you’re targeting like medical practices. It would be like a dentist or like a I don’t know like oh, oh optometrists or whatever they call those things so there’s whatever you’re targeting you want to list the job titles here right, and you also want to have the pain points and the problems and, If you don’t know this, you need to research it okay, because this is going to be important for your messaging.

So what were the pain points and problems of our market of the these SAS companies? Well, first of all, I didn’t they’re not generating enough high-quality leads. Second, they’re spending too much time on prospecting and data research tests right we were taught we were doing research on platforms like kora and seeing what people were asking in our market and a lot of them were saying. Oh, I spent way too too much time too much hours on prospecting and building lists right.

So we added that to the pain points. Also, we were seeing that a lot of founders. They were just starting their companies or they’re just getting going and they didn’t have the time or the budget to spend on building like a large sales team. So then, one of the fast results they wanted to get leads coming in now they didn’t want to wait months and months to do that. Okay, so what do we? What are we offering? What are you actually what’s your service that you’re offering to the market to help them solve these pain points and problems right? We were offering done for your LinkedIn prospecting right, we’re generating leads through outbound and LinkedIn.

Messages now found connection requests, okay and expect the results. You should know this so if you’re doing like a drop servicing business, how you get this is you go to you find a white label provider or freelancer? And you ask them these questions right. You look for the service, what’s included in the service. What are the expected results from their clients right, and you can leverage that information to fill this in here? Okay, so this doesn’t need to be all you.

Do you want to find a white label provider? You can ask them: what’s the expected results, if I give you clients for it for this service right now, the benefits of eight to twelve appointments and well, why do they want appointments a month or extra appointment? Well, it saves time for their sales team, because that’s what the sales team is doing is jet is trying to generate appointments do prospecting, so it saves time for them.

It also saves money and time and resources on training right, so they don’t have to train their team and spend months three four months: training their team on how to use LinkedIn or how to prospect in general. They can get going right away right and then also they get more high. Quality leads and appointments every month to help them increase sales and that’s what they want right. So you can. You can see it’s the inverse of all these things here.

Okay, so keep it simple. Do some research, if you don’t know these things, but don’t this should take no longer than like a few hours or like a day to do? Okay at max so once you’ve done, this you’ve created your step, one right: we’ve we’ve done this cross that out we’re going to go to step two build your prospect list. Okay, now there’s a lot of different ways that you can do this, but what I’ll show you the different places that we use right? We use find that lead and that’s for, if we’re targeting like b2b, like soft b2b, SAS companies or like tech, tech companies and all that stuff, when we’re targeting b2b we’re going to use, find that leak and they source their in, I think they source their data From LinkedIn, that’s why we use that if we want very specific businesses that have very specific attributes, we use up work.

So let’s just say that we want to target only medical spas. Who are you who offer CoolSculpting, which is a certain type of procedure right. We if we want a very specific business that offers a very specific service like that, we’ll hire someone on up work for like $ 300 or so to create a targeted list of those prospects that fit that criteria. If we’re targeting local businesses right, you can use something called d7 lead finder, and this is very good for, like those local brick-and-mortar stores and local businesses in general right.

So these are the different places that we use for the most part. You can also just go on Google if you want to save money, because these all cost money to use like no more than like 50 bucks a month or so. But if you don’t want to do that, you can always just manually, go to websites and find emails that way. Okay, but these are the places that we use so for this training. For this article, I’m going to show you how easy that lead com.

Okay, so I’m going to jump into this tool here and find that Lee again is: we use it mainly for a bead to be right for targeting like agencies and other freelancers and information technology companies and SAS companies. We use find that lead. So what you want to do is I’m going to show you why your ICP is so important here, you’re going to click, start new list and here’s how I name it. You just want to make it easy to identify right.

So I’m just going to do this! Software 11 to 50 employees, USA, founder okay. So now I know exactly when I look at this list who is in this list right? You want to be able to identify that where they located where it’s going to be United States. Job title is the founder and Industry, computer software, Internet’s information technology, all right and then 1150 employees. So now what do we see here? We have two thousand nine hundred people who fit this criteria and we grab this criteria directly from our ICP right.

So we have the industry, is the geography, the company size and the job titles right now the pain points and problems these these things are going to be using the actual messaging, but you can see here now what we have. We can just click generate list here and I’m not going to do this right now, because I’m not trying to use credits on this, but if we call generate list it’s going to search for the best prospects who fit that criteria, then we click generate emails.

Here. We click FTL servers and this is going to create a list and grab the emails of all the people on this list. Okay, now what this looks like – and I just I’ll just – I just already imported a completed list here right. I just imported this, but I got this. What this looks like is, if we click on prospector, again see current. If I click export CSV, it’s going to allow you to export only the correct emails right that I have a hundred percent accuracy.

That’s what you want! So you, like you, don’t get like bounced emails and all that stuff right. So once your list is done exporting or done grabbing the emails, you can export it and you can export only the correct email so that you don’t have delivery issues and then you’re going to have a CSV. That looks just like this okay and it has their first name, their last name, their position, their company website, industry, company size location, their LinkedIn profile, their email, and I’m just going to delete this stuff because we know correct.

We exported only the correct emails, so I delete this. This is all the information that we need for the most part right. So what I’m going to do is copy this. You would copy this. I would copy it it to this sheet here to their first name. I would copy this into their last name. You don’t have to do it like this. This is just the way that I do it or you can just copy the whole sheet. I’r just show you an example of how we, how we have our virtual assistants do this oops title company and the reason we need this information is because we’re going to import it into a separate tool to automate the sending of these emails right.

So we have this now we have I’m just going to do find that lead okay. So what do we have here? We have a list of first name – last name company, title email address and the source of where we got them from find out lead com, and we have a list of people who fit our ICP or ideal client profile. We have a list of people, we can send emails to right. So that’s step number two. We just did list creation right now.

Step number three is to create a messaging sequence. That’s designed to generate appointments. So I have this tab here. There’s a lot of different messaging differences and variations that we test with right. What I’m going to tell you now is you cannot just copy and paste this and expect it to work all the time and then complain like. Oh those are work, I’m not getting appointments. I’r not getting sales, I’m not getting clients, you need to test things on your own and learn to just experiment right.

So what I’m giving you here is something that’s worked very well for us, that’s been very effective for us. That does not mean if you copy and paste it that you’re going to get the same results right. So that’s just not the way things work, I’m going to show you what we use. One of the sequences that we use. We use many different variations depending on who we’re targeting, but this is a very simple one that we use: okay, so the breakdown of every cold email.

You have a subject line, we have the intro, we have the big promise and then we have like a proof element right and if you don’t have proof you again, if you’re a drop servicing business and you have a white label provider leverage their proof leverage their Testimonials on their social proof right and then we have a call to action. We also have, if you have some kind of authority content like a guide or a white paper, you can add some kind of PS line with that that builds credibility and authority right.

So here’s an example here and here’s just some subject lines here – that we use we use again tons of different ones that we split test with you have to split test on your own. I can’t tell you what the best subject line is, but here’s a simple one subject line Shawna found you on LinkedIn and this would be the person’s name right, so this gets their attention and then it shows where you found them right.

This seems to this seems to work well because people want to know. Oh, this guy found me on a social media platform. What is yet to say, okay, so you want to get them to open the email. You want to make sure that you’re not saying anything like free offer inside right, those don’t work. You want to make sure it’s just like casual and something you would kind of send to a friend or someone that, like like a colleague, you just met right.

So Sean funny on LinkedIn intro, I came across your profile on LinkedIn and, given your background thought it made sense to reach out big promise. We have a done-for-you LinkedIn prospecting service for b2b SAS companies that can help. You generate eight to twelve more demos every month. Without wasting your sales reps time on prospecting, proof, we’ve helped similar companies like a B and C to automate their lead generation and book eight to twelve more sales appointments per month, which has helped to increase sales.

Is this something you need help with right? So the call to action we want to get them to say yes or say no right, they say no, we remove them from our list if they say yes, we set up a time to chat with them. Okay, so the PS line. We have a LinkedIn guide that we send out, so you just say: PS. Here’s a guide: we’ve created them, how to help SAS companies generate more appointments using LinkedIn. Okay.

Now, if I go back to my ICP tab here, you can see why these are so important. We play on the pain points and the expected the results of our service right. You want to make sure that you have these things in your email. Okay. So if we go back here once we send this first email, you’re going to have most people are not going to respond to that first email. So what we want to do is follow up right. So three to four days after that, first email and the tool I’m going to show you automate this.

We want to send a second email, and this is just the kind of bump bump the loop, the last email to the top. A lot of people don’t have time to respond right away, or maybe they just didn’t see it and what we say is hey. First name or hey Sean just quickly, following up on the email I sent a few days ago, any thoughts on that are done for your Linkedin prospecting service can help. You generate more leads without spending hours every day on prospecting, a data research task.

Would it be useful? The call to action is what it’d be useful to have a quick conversation on how we might be able to help you write, so you can see again very short and to the point and value-driven like how we can help them white. What’s in it for them, why should they care right? So if they care about generating more leads and they’re, not using LinkedIn – and they are spending way too much time on prospecting and data research tasks, they’re going to want to respond to at least hear us out right and again notice – we’re not pitching them right away.

We’re not selling them we’re sending them a bye link, we’re asking them to get on the phone, and so we can talk to them. Learn about their business, learn if it’s a fit, and then we can offer them an opportunity to work with us. If it does sound like it’s a fit okay, so the last message: email three: if they still don’t respond, we send one more email after a week and we might just say something like hey: first name, I’ve reached out a couple times.

I didn’t hear back and I realize I may have jumped the gun, my intent, my intent is not to be a pain, so there’s going to be my last follow-up, but if you’re open to connect about generating more leads on LinkedIn, please hit reply to. Let me know either way. I wish you all the best right, so you can see a really soft, just like like a an exit email. I guess I don’t know what to call it like us: a send off email, right, you’re, going to have a portion of people who respond to this, and, like oh sorry about that, I actually meant to respond, but I forgot about it right.

So I can’t remember what the exact statistic is, but it’s something like it takes 8 to 12 touch points before someone responds or someone becomes a buyer right. So you want to make sure this. The reason why we follow up – and this is why we use a lot of platforms like LinkedIn and cold email and Facebook and Instagram – is because it takes a lot of touch points to get on someone’s radar. If they’ve never heard about you before right.

So we follow up, you know through two to three different times and our goal is still to get them on the phone with us right. So if they don’t, if they don’t respond to this, then we stop contact again contacting them. After this, we don’t keep on following up like like to eight to ten different times, email, because that will piss them off and will mark you as spam. But you can see here it’s just very short to the to the point sweet value-driven like.

Why? Should they care? Why should they want to get on the phone with us right, but that is our process here right, so we just did this creating a message sequence. What do we actually use to automate the sending? There are a lot of different tools out there that you can use, but one of the ones that we use is called mail shake, and I believe this is like 20 30 bucks a month now and what this does is once you’ve created your messaging sequence here.

Right, you can go into mail shake, you. Can click create a campaign, I’m just going to leave it as this I’m going to click Next, you can import your lists. I’r just going to go here just to a test list here and then you can import like the email address and their name click Next. Okay! So now everything imported. I skipped it a bit because I didn’t want you to wait now. All you have to do is plug and play right.

So we have here. We have our subject line right and you want to make sure that this does first name or their name or whatever it is. This name found you think then okay and then we’re just going to copy our our email right. So we go name okay, they sit out a bit okay, so you can see here we have our exact email from our sheet. We just copied and pasted it into here and then we can add the follow-up.

So I’m not I’m not going to waste your time and do all this, but you just set the amount of days you have the the actual subject line of the email you copy and paste the text into here and then, when you’re done, you just click Next Oops next, then, you click Next again and you schedule the actual email right. This is going to take a while because I think it’s going to prep the campaign right, but you can see here.

Oh here we go so you can see hi okay, but it personalizes it to their name. You can have the follow-ups go X, amount of days after that automatically if they don’t respond, and then it has the exact messaging sequence that you created in the last step. Right, so this is step by step. This is how we use cold email to get new clients and grow our business without ads and without complex sales funnels and all that stuff right.

Cold email is still one of our best blogs for client generation, new client generation. Right because it’s predictable, it’s measurable, we can do it every single day. It doesn’t cost much like other than that, like the tools that we pay a little amount for every single month, but we covered the ICP we’ve covered, creating a list that fits your ICP. We covered creating a messaging sequence and I all should also showed you the tools that we use right.

I actually work with. This is actually what we run as a service. We actually do cold emailing for people in our agency right, so this you can take this and run with it. Obviously you have to experiment with a different messaging here right, but this is our step-by-step guide. This is exactly how we send cold emails and set everything up to send cold emails and get clients for our business all right.

So I hope this was helpful for you guys if you want to see anything else around cold emailing or if you have any questions or comments or concerns, make sure you comment below leave this article like if you, if you like long form, guides like this and Yeah, I will see you in the next article. I will link to some other emailing and lead-generation articles on the side here, but yeah. I hope you guys enjoyed this and I’ll see you in the next article.

Take care

LinkedIn Marketing: 3 Ways To Get Clients With LinkedIn FAST [2020]

It’s an absolute goldmine if you know how to use it. So in this article I’m going to talk about three ways: to use LinkedIn to get clients fast, hey, what’s up, it’s Sean Anthony and I talk about the best tools, tips and strategies to level up your business, your skills and your income. So that sounds interesting to you make sure you go down below right now and hit that subscribe button.

Alright. So in this article we’re going to talk about LinkedIn, why it’s such a goldmine and how to use it three specific ways to use it to get clients fast for your business. So let’s hop into my computer right now already so on the screen. Here I have my LinkedIn profile and I’m just going to go and walk through the three main things that you want to do to be marketing on LinkedIn and growing your business and getting more clients using the platform.

Okay. So I’m going to walk through each of these three things, I’m going to show you some examples of each and just keep in mind, there’s hundreds of different tips and tactics and strategies and cool little hacks. You can do on LinkedIn. These are the three main core things that you want to do as part of your client acquisition strategy. If you want to use LinkedIn to do that and to get clients and grow your business okay, so just keep that in mind.

There’s a lot of different things that I could cover. I might cover in later articles, but pay attention to these main three, because this is the main thing that you want to do as part of your strategy. Okay, so number one. Is you want to optimize your LinkedIn profile for your ideal client right, and the way you want to think about your profile? Is a lot of people treat it like a resume or like a showcase or a place to just show off right, show off about their awards and what they’ve done? Maybe they’ve written a book or whatever you don’t want to do that.

You want to treat your LinkedIn profile if you want to use it to get clients, you want to treat it kind of like a mini sales, page or mini landing page right, and the goal of your LinkedIn profile is to attract and convert your ideal clients. So to do that, you need to optimize your LinkedIn profile to do that. To get your ideal clients to come to your profile, see what you do and say. Oh that sounds like that.

Guy can help me right. So let’s just take a look at the main. There’s three main areas on the profile that you want to optimize number: one is just your image, your file image and your cover photo. Okay, don’t overcomplicate this! Your profile photo should just be something simple: if you like, looking professional, smiling, not like you just rolled out of bed or came out of a bar, it should be a clear picture to make sure it’s not like pixelated or you can’t see your face.

Just make sure it’s a picture of a of you, that’s clear and looks somewhat professional. Okay, your cover photo is the same thing for me. I just put a few photos. You can make this in canva. I put a few photos that show me speaking and with other entrepreneurs like this is Jesse at slur. He owns the Atlanta Hawks. This is Trey Llewellyn who’s, big in the e-commerce space. You can use something like this.

That shows your authority or you can link with a call to action to your website or whatever you want people to do. Okay, so just make sure these two areas, it’s not like the default, make sure that you optimize it to make you look good and position. You as an authority all right now. The second place you want to optimize is your headline most people. What they do here is they just put their job title right.

They might say: oh I’m, a CEO, whose company this is what I do well, you want to make sure that when your prospect reads your headline, they can answer the question. What’s in it for me right, and does this person help me so this is for growth response right growth responses are b2b, lead generation or drop servicing agency. We provide LinkedIn and cold email, lead generation for b2b technology, startups, SAS companies and agencies right.

So I want to make sure if this is my company and that’s who I target right: b2b, startups and agencies. I want to make sure that my top my headline on LinkedIn speaks to that right. So it’s the same exact thing here: helping startups helping the niche, who are your niches and agencies to get result? What’s the result, get more sales meetings with their ideal customers right and then you can even I couldn’t fit everything in here.

So I just put you know: founder high growth response done for you up on prospecting. Some keyword, SAS lead generation, LinkedIn marketing, cold email, copy sales, funnels okay, so you can put some keywords in here: a little hack. I don’t know if this still works, but if you edit on your phone, if you download the LinkedIn mobile app and you edit on your phone, you edit this headline, I think they, let you add, a bit more characters right.

I don’t think I could add this on on the desktop version. I think it’s a little trick if it still works, if it doesn’t oh well you’re too late, but try try downloading the mobile app and seeing if, if you could add more keywords into your headline here right. But the lesson here is: make sure that you can answer who do you help? How do you help them and what result do you get right? So helping startups and agencies get sales meetings with their ideal customers? That’s what I do and then I linked to growth response, which is the actual company that I’m talking about right.

So that’s area number two, now area number one, your photo! Your cover photo area. Number two is your headline area number three that you want to optimize is your about or your summary section. Okay – and this is where people go so wrong, like they’ll, just put like, for example, they’ll speak about themselves in third person, so they might say something like Shawn has worn won three awards. He started five companies he’s made like ten million dollars.

Shaun has is a TEDx speaker. He has this book in that book and he’s done this he’s such a badass right, like just talking about themselves in third person, which first of all, is just it’s kind of strange. It’s kind of creepy right who actually talks about themselves in third person and, second of all, you look like a narcissist when you do that, so make sure that your your profile summary talks about your prospect and how you can help them right again.

If you want to use it to get more clients and grow your business right, so let’s take a look at my example: I’m not going to read through all of this, but let’s take a look at what I’m doing here right. So the very first line. I don’t say anything about me or, like my background or anything, I talk exactly to the value proposition right. We help technology startups and digital agencies fill their pipeline with high-value, leads that turn into customers.

You get an expert team dedicated to prospecting and customer acquisition for half the cost of an in-house team. Now by reading that very first sentence, you know exactly who I helped exactly the result I get and how like why it’s relevant to them right. So half the cost of an in-house team right these SAS companies, these SAS founders, they’re so used to hiring like three to four sales reps at like four to five thousand dollars a month each and they still have to train them and buy them tools and all That stuff right so we’ll cut that cost in more than half and we’ll get.

We have a proven system that already works and we can get them exactly what they want, which is more customers right. So the the sentence should be a value proposition about you and what you do and how you help that market right. Then I kind of dive deep into the problems and pain points, so you’re going to have to do some research into this right. It’s not going to be the same thing. You want to make sure that you’re speaking in the language of your niche, so for our niche for b2b technology companies when we are talking to founders they’re, always like I don’t know where my next deals coming from, like we don’t know which source is coming from.

We don’t know if it’s from a webinar or LinkedIn or cold email or Facebook advertising. We don’t know where our next deal is going to come from and we don’t have a predictable system right. So we tie that into the pain points here right is your team wasting hours of valuable selling time when researching and instead of closing deals, do you wish you had a proven system right? So these are specific pain points that come up when we talk to our market right Ben.

You can read this, you can I’m not going to read all this, but it talks a little bit about our background. Why we created this service? What problem does it solve and we even kind of qualify people here right so we say hold up, must be but afford at least $ 1,000 a month, and this filters out people from booking a call with us if they’re, just like tire, kickers and just information Seekers right that aren’t actually going to become clients.

So take a look at the profile summary summary here again: it should speak directly to your ideal client and your ideal prospect and talk about how you can help them solve a problem that they want to solve right. In this case, it’s it’s lead generation and getting more getting more customers for their SAS business right. They should not be talking about yourself in third person or your awards or anything like that.

Nobody cares right. So that’s the number one area is is optimizing your profile. We talked about your profile photo your cover photo your headline and also your profile summary right. So that’s number one optimize your profile for your ideal client now number two: is you want to connect and engage with your ideal clients right, so you can use sales navigator options set up a separate article, doing a tutorial of sales navigator and how we use it In depth, but let’s just say that we’re going to use it again, b2b staffs founders, because that’s who we target for for growth response if I want to find SAS calendars, all I got to do here is type in.

Let’s see founder, okay and I’ll show you some examples of messages that we’ve sent I’ll go to all filters here and I can go to computer software. I can go to let’s say if I want to find people in my city of Seattle I’ll do that. I can type in their title here. I might do falender right and then what I can do is click apply now. What does this? Do? It gives me a list of 2509 founders in seattle of software companies and what sales navigator you can get even more grant and granular with like the size of the companies like how many employees they have more specific industries, more specific titles and seniority levels.

But I’m just showing you a quick example here, and this shows me two thousand plus founders people who fit my ideal client profile. So what do I want to do? I want to connect with these people. Let’s just say Dan here I might connect with him I’ll. Send him a connection requests, hey Dan saw your founder in the Seattle area of a SAS company. Would love to connect and share insights with you. Something super simple like that: right once they connect, you can send them a message and just see if they’re interested in having a quick conversation with you to learn more about what you do as what you deliver at your service right and how you can help them To provide value to their lives right, so let’s take a look at an example here right, so one of our clients here is Lynn.

I know she is in here she’s one of my favorite clients, because they have an awesome SAS product. Oh my gosh, I can get this typed out and then you can see here when we first started talking, so you can see here, here’s the connection message right. So I connected with there. I engage with there I enjoy connecting with founders, who I share. Mutual connections with love the opportunity to connect and share insights thanks for sharing, thanks for connecting with me on LinkedIn promise to keep this value an interesting blah, blah blah, and then I go into a little mini pitch right.

Are you interested in using LinkedIn to generate 10 to 20 high value sales appointments a month at Condotti? If not, or are you currently using that? If not, I created this free guide detailing how to do that right, so I’m providing her value, I’m giving her a value. So I had this little article here on LinkedIn tactics and I sent it over her way and this is what she said would like to chat more on your approach.

Let me know when’s a good time this week or next. So then we hopped on a phone. We set up a time to chat. We helped in the phone she became a client of ours. She’s been a client of ours for over a year now and she’s on boarded. You know multiple people within her company onto our service right, so LinkedIn outreach. It works. You know you have to just make sure you’re connecting with the right people with your ideal client you’re, providing value up front you’re, showing them that you care about them and and that you can help them get a result that they actually want.

And that’s what we’ve done here and this is exactly what we do for our service right, our LinkedIn service. What we’re doing is we’re connecting with people, we optimize your profile and then we start connecting with people and engaging with them to get you more appointments so that you can get more customers more clients right. So that’s number two is connecting and engaging with your ideal clients and trying to get them.

You know interested in what you have to offer yeah so number three, the third way to grow your business and get more clients if LinkedIn is content, write content and what you want to do here, there’s two types of content: this is the way that I break It down type one content is content that shows who you are as a person right. So talk, you’re, going to be telling stories about yourself, your business, your personal life, things that happen, things that are good things that are bad.

It shows people that you’re human and who you are as a person – I mean, of course you’re human, but it shows your personality a bit right, so you can look at my posts on here. I’r not going to go through all of them here, because I have I’ve made a lot of posts, but type 1 content is showing who you are as a person and letting people know that your hue and you’re, not just some robot on linkedin, trying to just Spam and get business all the time right.

Number two is what I call type 2 content real original right, but it’s content that positions you as the authority. So it answers the question. Why should I work with you to solve X problem? So someone might say why should I work with you to help me generate more leads on LinkedIn, so I actually provide a lot of content here on LinkedIn for free through my status updates right. You can see these get engaged with a lot.

50 likes 12 comments of 54 and 19. Comments have 17,000 views on this 147 likes and 49 comments. So this gets people interested in what you have to offer and they’ll see your posts. They’ll reach out to you through your messaging here and they’ll, want to set up a time with you to chat right. So content is a very powerful way if you combine it with an outreach strategy right. So if you optimize your profile number one, you optimize it for your ideal client number: two! You connect and engage with your ideal clients, your ideal prospects and you grow your network on LinkedIn right.

You start connecting with people they get accepted into your network. You send them a mess. I’ve seen if you can help them or provide value, that’s connect and engage and then number three you’re constantly putting content out there. Maybe one or two times a week even and you’re, constantly putting content in value out there and you’re helping your market out through your content, you’re going to get clients, people are going to reach out to you they’re going to want to work with you, because your Profit you’re putting goodwill and value out into the market right, so those are the three things number one optimize your profile for your ideal client right, your your your profile photo your cover photo your headline and your profile summary.

You should all be geared towards your ideal prospect. Your ideal client should be it shouldn’t, be talking or bragging about yourself. Okay, number two is a the connected engaged, so you want to connect with your ideal client and you want to provide some value. Maybe you found an article, that’s useful to them. That’s relevant to your service that you provide and also number three is to post content right type, 1 and type 2 content person, personality content and authority content right.

You want to get people interested in what you have to offer and stay top of mind so that when they are ready to move forward with LinkedIn lead generation or whatever you provide, you are going to be the first person they think about.

HOW TO MAKE $300/DAY ON TIKTOK AS A TEENAGER ?!

I think we’re all scratching our heads about how these internet people make money online. Now, there’s someone who’s, maybe aspiring to do the same thing. This article is for you, I’m going to show you how to make almost $ 300 a day just from tik-tok, and you don’t need any starting capital. You don’t eat any investment.

You just got ta make content for 15 seconds. If you want to know how creators are able to make money on it, tick tock, all I got ta do – is keep on reading all right guys. First of all, what’s that my name is Jade and welcome to my blog. I have to make a huge disclaimer because I feel really bad. If I don’t say this, so if you’re new here I’m an 18 year old entrepreneur – and I have businesses all about social media and the one thing I’ve learned is if your goal is just to make money and that’s your focus, you’ll never be able to achieve That goal by focusing on it, which means don’t focus on the $ 300 a day like I really could buy literally so many clothes from Urban Outfitters with $ 300.

It could literally pay off rent any month right. If you make $ 3 a day, you could literally get an iPhone 11 and just want to be, though yeah. I know it’s pretty lucrative and pretty exciting, but don’t just have the intention to make money. What I’ve learned is tik-tok is a social media. App that’s built on fans and followers. So if you ask people for money, they’re going to go away, but if you build a genuine relationship and Trust and you’ll have longevity to put out other revenue streams in the future.

So, if you’re looking for a quick rich scheme, I am NOT this article. I would click off and read someone else. Today’s article is actually going to be kind of boring, but I’ll just try to make sure it’s entertaining. I actually brought in a tick-tock expert, Selena killa she’s over 500k up on tick-tock and she hates calling me a tick-tock expert. Well we’re going to pick her brain on how creators are making money on this pot.

So one of the most important ways you guys can make money using tick-tock that we mentioned in this article is selling merch, so Selena. I were talking about opening up a website to sell products. Now, one of the most important things when building a brand is having a memorable domain. Oh, I actually really wanted a website called PBJ com. I was so mad when I realized that the domain name was taken or unavailable.

I actually got PBJ site instead for one of my businesses, I love it says it’s way more short and sleek and perfect for building a memorable brand, so whether you’re someone who’s wanting to start their new tic toc career or sell merch in the future. You can actually use the dot sight extensions for your next website next time. All I got ta do is go to get site or click the link in the description box.

Thank you dot size for sponsoring today’s article don’t get back in today’s article, alright guys. So I’m here with Selena killa, can I call you by that too. I’m here with Selena and Selena is primarily the tic-tock expert we talked to in the last article I wan na see if I can even take down the e boy King. How are you doing? I’m good well today we have a few questions for you, since I don’t know as much.

My first question for you now is: what are the ways people can make money on tick, tock and if so, do you think it’s actually sustainable to make a living? So you can make money through lives so for people who don’t know what our live streams on tick tock. So it’s just like you’re sitting there in your room or wherever you are, and it’s happening in real time and you’re talking to whoever you’re talking to your fans and they have a little button.

They can buy money, buy money, buy gifts which is their money, and it says it to you, and so you basically get gifts and those gifts translate to actual money that you can transfer into your PayPal account. Do they pay you out like every month, because it is like YouTube, Adsense or just a cash out, so you can do a cash out. You have to have 50 dollars, at least in your account to be able to cash out.

I think you can cash up up to $ 1,000 a day and that’s not Wow very cool, so live streams, one revenue stream. What else would you say brand deals for sure? I think brand deals now are coming more into like fruition, just because we were talking about the the sponsor post now, so you have to put hashtag sponsor because it’s more like a serious, concrete thing, because there’s so many people actually getting brand deals, and you don’t Want to like kind of muddle, the lines of actually like.

Is it a brand deal? Is it just something that you like or so, and I saw you recently do like an LED use in an LED like that? Okay, there’s like ways you can integrate. It creatively right, like you, don’t just like hold the product. Do you make on, I think that’s the great thing about tik-tok is that they want you to make articles to catch people’s eyes. They don’t just want you to be like. Oh, here’s a mug buy it because I mean feel like sometimes in YouTube.

You kind of have, like the whole article to kind of convince people to buy a product. You have only like a minute to 16 or 15 years really seconds to make. Someone want to buy it so for my LED lights they said I could post as many articles as I want as long as I tag them or like talk about the light, but I can do whatever I want to see the thing of the tik-tok. I thought it missus person for me as a user.

I, like a founder creator, a lot for example you, but because the algorithm is so like there’s so much content, they give you every single day you can get lost. So I saw that a lot of your followers on tik-tok, followed you an Instagram, so my question, for you is because tick tock might not be the platform to like just make money. Have you found that? Because you could real now pass, are you directing it on other traffic sources? Is that the same thing 1,000 %? Because I don’t think I would have gotten half the brand deals? I did if it weren’t for me connecting my Instagram to it.

A lot of companies reach me through Instagram, because my business email is on there, so they will email me through that or they’ll DM me or anything like that, but usually on tik-tok. Since you have to follow the person they actually message them. You both have to follow each other to have to be able to message, so you fans can’t just randomly message. You like, like Instagram, where you can have like your DMS, that you can’t keep.

They won’t see if you see if that makes sense. So yeah that’s pretty much it yeah. Now I have like 20,000 people, almost, I think, 20,000 on my Instagram, which I did not think wasn’t going to happen. So I guess it leads me to my my third question, which is your own product cuz on YouTube and Instagram. I’ve seen that that’s up their revenue stream is that the same, have you seen tick tock words create merch or their own product.

Before I know a couple of people that create to march through websites or they’re trying to create their own brands or they collaborate and make music for people or they make actual plush toys stickers, anything that you can think of they’re making some people are really creative. They make their entire design or some people just plaster. There use your name on it and what you qualify, but yeah. It’s happening and there’s people that worry that will reach out to you and say I will make your merch for you, because I’ve gotten that plenty of times that I’m not ready yeah.

I don’t want to be one of those people that just plaster something or shirt and then just say: okay, give me money knowing those three revenue streams, the donations, brand deals and then product. Have you seen anyone or maybe personal stories like? Can you make a living off of it? Like is tik-tok enough to make me, do it full-time? What do you say? Yeah sure I think, because it’s opening a lot of doors for people.

I know that another way that people are getting money is actually companies that produce music or have rappers they’ll say: please use this song, make it a trend, we’ll give you $ 300 a post. Well, so it’s not only just merch or anything like that. It’s companies that are trying to utilize these people because they obviously have an influence. That’s like really fast growing and it reaches people really quickly that they can make a trend with that song because there’s so many artists that blown up just from tik-tok.

So I think definitely you can make a living. I know a rapper, he blew up on tik-tok and he says he was barely getting his bills paid and now all of a sudden he’s getting Brandi rose and aside to a record label, let’s just break it down. Like I think you get this advice, I don’t do it for the money, but for people who want to see the potential what’s possible, I’m going to ask. Maybe this is too personal, but like what’s the most, you know that someone has made – let’s say I’d like a one: single live stream, a couple thousand dollars, because there a lot of people, use these tactics to enforce people to pay money.

So they said okay drama. Queen is like the about most. You can pay right. It’s like fifty dollars. Basically, even though tick-tock takes some of that money because they need to make money somehow so they say: okay, I’m wearing this sweatshirt. If you donate three drama queens you’ll get more numbers in a raffle to get this sweatshirt, so they give an incentive yeah, they give an incentive. That’s nice! Fine! I personally don’t do that because I feel like it was a connection to my fans because I have a lot of you know younger fans.

I have a lot of fans from different places and they can’t afford to give me money, but I don’t want to like ostracize them for not giving me donations, because people will ignore you. If you don’t give donations, sometimes I’ve seen tick talkers. That would be like where’s. The donations give me money and those people that doesn’t work well in the long run yeah, because I feel like to me that’s why.

I’m like I make a decent amount of money from tick tock, but I think I don’t make as much as other people because if I did like oh, if you guys give me a drama queen I’ll, add you to my private snapchat. I don’t do that, but I know in the long run I’m going to have fans that actually stick with me because I treated them well right and I think I mean wrong, but like do you feel like brand deals and although donations are great revenue streams there.

It’s less long-term and maybe creating a product will have longevity, because the customer is getting value and it’s a national business where you’re able to scale it. Do you think the direction, maybe your personal going into, is creating your own product for longevity mom wait! It’s like. I told her I mean like doing an interview. Thing is she’s, just like okay, it is definitely not long-term, but I think that this is a running point for people, because I just got a huge brand deal that I can’t talk about, but there’s issues with that.

Already so it’s like crazy stuffs happening yeah, I’m getting brand deals that are like starting to step up, bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger, which is great. But I also want to create my own brand, like not just me but my own clothing brand in general, but I know I want, but I won’t be able to get there unless I have my fans to support me so right now, I’m just kind of focusing On I’m going to get as many fans as I want – that’s not true, but it’s like grow, my audience stay connected with them and then they’re going to support me in a long run, because everyone wants me to do merch, I’m not ready for merch.

I know they’ll be waiting for I’m just waiting for a decent team, because the only thing I’m very I don’t want to release something. That’s subpar to come back to this full circle. The laughs there’s been talk about at the mindset because I don’t think you’d ov into that much yet a lot of people see the potential of tik-tok and they want to do because of the money and I’m not even talking about tech.

Talk I’ll talk about YouTube. Instagram they want to do it because of fame and fortune. How do you keep a mind Suzy? I mean quickly from wrong, but I feel like maybe stumble onto this like this was a more genuine passion for you and then you found ways to monetize. Is that what you recommend for everyone like just to create something they like first or like, because so many people like how what advice would you give to someone who wants to do it? I got that question a lot asking like how.

How can I get famous? What do I do, and my answer is always like there’s. This is an app you’re supposed to have fun on create genuine original content that you, like. You can follow. Trends do things like that, but once you start getting analytical and being upset about numbers and being upset that nobody’s viewing your stuff, it’s pointless. People didn’t see my stuff for, though, for a while, and then I had one article about Japan that she blew out and I could have just stopped there, but I kept going because I enjoyed what I do it shouldn’t be about fame.

That’s my point because I didn’t do this for fame. I just got really lucky and I don’t think I’m famous, I just think I’m popular.

LinkedIn Marketing: 3 Ways To Get Clients With LinkedIn FAST [2020]

It’S an absolute goldmine if you know how to use it. So in this article I’m going to talk about three ways: to use LinkedIn to get clients fast, hey, what’s up, it’s Sean Anthony and I talk about the best tools, tips and strategies to level up your business, your skills and your income. So that sounds interesting to you make sure you go down below right now and hit that subscribe button.

Alright. So in this article we’re going to talk about LinkedIn, why it’s such a goldmine and how to use it three specific ways to use it to get clients fast for your business. So let’s hop into my computer right now already so on the screen. Here I have my LinkedIn profile and I’m just going to go and walk through the three main things that you want to do to be marketing on LinkedIn and growing your business and getting more clients using the platform.

Okay. So I’m going to walk through each of these three things, I’m going to show you some examples of each and just keep in mind, there’s hundreds of different tips and tactics and strategies and cool little hacks. You can do on LinkedIn. These are the three main core things that you want to do as part of your client acquisition strategy. If you want to use LinkedIn to do that and to get clients and grow your business okay, so just keep that in mind.

There’S a lot of different things that I could cover. I might cover in later articles, but pay attention to these main three, because this is the main thing that you want to do as part of your strategy. Okay, so number one. Is you want to optimize your LinkedIn profile for your ideal client right, and the way you want to think about your profile? Is a lot of people treat it like a resume or like a showcase or a place to just show off right, show off about their awards and what they’ve done? Maybe they’ve written a book or whatever you don’t want to do that.

You want to treat your LinkedIn profile if you want to use it to get clients, you want to treat it kind of like a mini sales, page or mini landing page right, and the goal of your LinkedIn profile is to attract and convert your ideal clients. So to do that, you need to optimize your LinkedIn profile to do that. To get your ideal clients to come to your profile, see what you do and say. Oh that sounds like that.

Guy can help me right. So let’s just take a look at the main. There’S three main areas on the profile that you want to optimize number: one is just your image, your file image and your cover photo. Okay, don’t overcomplicate this! Your profile photo should just be something simple: if you like, looking professional, smiling, not like you just rolled out of bed or came out of a bar, it should be a clear picture to make sure it’s not like pixelated or you can’t see your face.

Just make sure it’s a picture of a of you, that’s clear and looks somewhat professional. Okay, your cover photo is the same thing for me. I just put a few photos. You can make this in canva. I put a few photos that show me speaking and with other entrepreneurs like this is Jesse at slur. He owns the Atlanta Hawks. This is Trey Llewellyn who’s, big in the e-commerce space. You can use something like this.

That shows your authority or you can link with a call to action to your website or whatever you want people to do. Okay, so just make sure these two areas, it’s not like the default, make sure that you optimize it to make you look good and position. You as an authority all right now. The second place you want to optimize is your headline most people. What they do here is they just put their job title right.

They might say: oh I’m, a CEO, whose company this is what I do well, you want to make sure that when your prospect reads your headline, they can answer the question. What’S in it for me right, and does this person help me so this is for growth response right growth responses are b2b, lead generation or drop servicing agency. We provide LinkedIn and cold email, lead generation for b2b technology, startups, SAS companies and agencies right.

So I want to make sure if this is my company and that’s who I target right: b2b, startups and agencies. I want to make sure that my top my headline on LinkedIn speaks to that right. So it’s the same exact thing here: helping startups helping the niche, who are your niches and agencies to get result? What’S the result, get more sales meetings with their ideal customers right and then you can even I couldn’t fit everything in here.

So I just put you know: founder high growth response done for you up on prospecting. Some keyword, SAS lead generation, LinkedIn marketing, cold email, copy sales, funnels okay, so you can put some keywords in here: a little hack. I don’t know if this still works, but if you edit on your phone, if you download the LinkedIn mobile app and you edit on your phone, you edit this headline, I think they, let you add, a bit more characters right.

I don’t think I could add this on on the desktop version. I think it’s a little trick if it still works, if it doesn’t oh well you’re too late, but try try downloading the mobile app and seeing if, if you could add more keywords into your headline here right. But the lesson here is: make sure that you can answer who do you help? How do you help them and what result do you get right? So helping startups and agencies get sales meetings with their ideal customers? That’S what I do and then I linked to growth response, which is the actual company that I’m talking about right.

So that’s area number two, now area number one, your photo! Your cover photo area. Number two is your headline area number three that you want to optimize is your about or your summary section. Okay – and this is where people go so wrong, like they’ll, just put like, for example, they’ll speak about themselves in third person, so they might say something like Shawn has worn won three awards. He started five companies he’s made like ten million dollars.

Shaun has is a TEDx speaker. He has this book in that book and he’s done this he’s such a badass right, like just talking about themselves in third person, which first of all, is just it’s kind of strange. It’S kind of creepy right who actually talks about themselves in third person and, second of all, you look like a narcissist when you do that, so make sure that your your profile summary talks about your prospect and how you can help them right again.

If you want to use it to get more clients and grow your business right, so let’s take a look at my example: I’m not going to read through all of this, but let’s take a look at what I’m doing here right. So the very first line. I don’t say anything about me or, like my background or anything, I talk exactly to the value proposition right. We help technology startups and digital agencies fill their pipeline with high-value, leads that turn into customers.

You get an expert team dedicated to prospecting and customer acquisition for half the cost of an in-house team. Now by reading that very first sentence, you know exactly who I helped exactly the result I get and how like why it’s relevant to them right. So half the cost of an in-house team right these SAS companies, these SAS founders, they’re so used to hiring like three to four sales reps at like four to five thousand dollars a month each and they still have to train them and buy them tools and all That stuff right so we’ll cut that cost in more than half and we’ll get.

We have a proven system that already works and we can get them exactly what they want, which is more customers right. So the the sentence should be a value proposition about you and what you do and how you help that market right. Then I kind of dive deep into the problems and pain points, so you’re going to have to do some research into this right. It’S not going to be the same thing. You want to make sure that you’re speaking in the language of your niche, so for our niche for b2b technology companies when we are talking to founders they’re, always like I don’t know where my next deals coming from, like we don’t know which source is coming from.

We don’t know if it’s from a webinar or LinkedIn or cold email or Facebook advertising. We don’t know where our next deal is going to come from and we don’t have a predictable system right. So we tie that into the pain points here right is your team wasting hours of valuable selling time when researching and instead of closing deals, do you wish you had a proven system right? So these are specific pain points that come up when we talk to our market right Ben.

You can read this, you can I’m not going to read all this, but it talks a little bit about our background. Why we created this service? What problem does it solve and we even kind of qualify people here right so we say hold up, must be but afford at least $ 1,000 a month, and this filters out people from booking a call with us if they’re, just like tire, kickers and just information Seekers right that aren’t actually going to become clients.

So take a look at the profile summary summary here again: it should speak directly to your ideal client and your ideal prospect and talk about how you can help them solve a problem that they want to solve right. In this case, it’s it’s lead generation and getting more getting more customers for their SAS business right. They should not be talking about yourself in third person or your awards or anything like that.

Nobody cares right. So that’s the number one area is is optimizing your profile. We talked about your profile photo your cover photo your headline and also your profile summary right. So that’s number one optimize your profile for your ideal client now number two: is you want to connect and engage with your ideal clients right, so you can use sales navigator options set up a separate article, doing a tutorial of sales navigator and how we use it In depth, but let’s just say that we’re going to use it again, b2b staffs founders, because that’s who we target for for growth response if I want to find SAS calendars, all I got to do here is type in.

Let’S see founder, okay and I’ll show you some examples of messages that we’ve sent I’ll go to all filters here and I can go to computer software. I can go to let’s say if I want to find people in my city of Seattle I’ll do that. I can type in their title here. I might do falender right and then what I can do is click apply now. What does this? Do? It gives me a list of 2509 founders in seattle of software companies and what sales navigator you can get even more grant and granular with like the size of the companies like how many employees they have more specific industries, more specific titles and seniority levels.

But I’m just showing you a quick example here, and this shows me two thousand plus founders people who fit my ideal client profile. So what do I want to do? I want to connect with these people. Let’S just say Dan here I might connect with him I’ll. Send him a connection requests, hey Dan saw your founder in the Seattle area of a SAS company. Would love to connect and share insights with you. Something super simple like that: right once they connect, you can send them a message and just see if they’re interested in having a quick conversation with you to learn more about what you do as what you deliver at your service right and how you can help them To provide value to their lives right, so let’s take a look at an example here right, so one of our clients here is Lynn.

I know she is in here she’s one of my favorite clients, because they have an awesome SAS product. Oh my gosh, I can get this typed out and then you can see here when we first started talking, so you can see here, here’s the connection message right. So I connected with there. I engage with there I enjoy connecting with founders, who I share. Mutual connections with love the opportunity to connect and share insights thanks for sharing, thanks for connecting with me on LinkedIn promise to keep this value an interesting blah, blah blah, and then I go into a little mini pitch right.

Are you interested in using LinkedIn to generate 10 to 20 high value sales appointments a month at Condotti? If not, or are you currently using that? If not, I created this free guide detailing how to do that right, so I’m providing her value, I’m giving her a value. So I had this little article here on LinkedIn tactics and I sent it over her way and this is what she said would like to chat more on your approach.

Let me know when’s a good time this week or next. So then we hopped on a phone. We set up a time to chat. We helped in the phone she became a client of ours. She’S been a client of ours for over a year now and she’s on boarded. You know multiple people within her company onto our service right, so LinkedIn outreach. It works. You know you have to just make sure you’re connecting with the right people with your ideal client you’re, providing value up front you’re, showing them that you care about them and and that you can help them get a result that they actually want.

And that’s what we’ve done here and this is exactly what we do for our service right, our LinkedIn service. What we’re doing is we’re connecting with people, we optimize your profile and then we start connecting with people and engaging with them to get you more appointments so that you can get more customers more clients right. So that’s number two is connecting and engaging with your ideal clients and trying to get them.

You know interested in what you have to offer yeah so number three, the third way to grow your business and get more clients if LinkedIn is content, write content and what you want to do here, there’s two types of content: this is the way that I break It down type one content is content that shows who you are as a person right. So talk, you’re, going to be telling stories about yourself, your business, your personal life, things that happen, things that are good things that are bad.

It shows people that you’re human and who you are as a person – I mean, of course you’re human, but it shows your personality a bit right, so you can look at my posts on here. I’M not going to go through all of them here, because I have I’ve made a lot of posts, but type 1 content is showing who you are as a person and letting people know that your hue and you’re, not just some robot on linkedin, trying to just Spam and get business all the time right.

Number two is what I call type 2 content real original right, but it’s content that positions you as the authority. So it answers the question. Why should I work with you to solve X problem? So someone might say why should I work with you to help me generate more leads on LinkedIn, so I actually provide a lot of content here on LinkedIn for free through my status updates right. You can see these get engaged with a lot.

50 likes 12 comments of 54 and 19. Comments have 17,000 views on this 147 likes and 49 comments. So this gets people interested in what you have to offer and they’ll see your posts. They’Ll reach out to you through your messaging here and they’ll, want to set up a time with you to chat right. So content is a very powerful way if you combine it with an outreach strategy right. So if you optimize your profile number one, you optimize it for your ideal client number: two! You connect and engage with your ideal clients, your ideal prospects and you grow your network on LinkedIn right.
