how to get your first smma client in seven days [Music] hey everyone Derek to Mike here with two guys build a Biz so how can you land your very first client in seven days we get this question all the time there's many ways to do this but I'm going to show you the fastest way that we did it and I've also seen hundreds of students get this done in the smma blueprint zero clients one client seven days let's dive into it it wasn't that long ago when David and I had nine to five jobs a smma or a social media marketing agency was really a fragile idea in our minds we had no confidence no experience and really no results to show up so it wasn't that long ago when we were in that exact same position you might be in today so many of you may feel the way I did you lack confidence you lack experience and really knowledge to get the job done and go out into the marketplace and say hey this is what I do this is who I serve and do you want to do business with me rest assured there is a path to overcome this the first thing you need to understand is objections will come your way as a new entrepreneur and that objection that you will face when you have no experience no case studies no clients is really have you done this before show me your work do you have any clients that I can call as a reference these are the types of objections you're going to get there's no way around it it's going to happen so how do you overcome this look I was in the same boat as you just a few years ago and this is how we get it done and we've seen many students do this as well the first thing you need to do is get in the game you need to get some experience and you need to get it fast the very first thing I did is ask myself do I know any business owners is there anybody that I know that owns a business owner is there somebody in my network that I can reach out to and maybe do business with well unfortunately there wasn't I didn't have anybody in my network there wasn't a business owner in the family I was out of luck in that department but there are many ways that you can still go out and get experience and have zero Network so don't use that as an excuse because you can be wildly successful without a network of business owners so I lived in a small town at the time and I noticed there was a salon that opened up in town they didn't even have the storefront out yet at this point and I thought this would be a perfect business to reach out to so I reached out to him and in short I said hey you're a new business I'm a new business and I've been taking online classes to run social media marketing ads for small businesses and before I increase my retainer I'm looking to take on one to two businesses on a free trial basis my intention is to create a successful campaign for you so then I can go and Market that to get more clients and build up the foundation of my business I'll run the campaign for you free of charge all you need to do is pay a small amount in ad spend and I'll take care of the rest I'll run the ads I'll do the Creative I'll send you the leads and whatever you feel comfortable with whether it's 50 bucks 100 bucks whatever spend that in ad spend and I'll take care of the rest so they said yes we ran a simple giveaway campaign it was around the holiday time frame so we did shampoos conditioners it was like a whole package that people could win by simply opting in with their name email and phone number a basic Facebook ad that we set up using the internal lead capture form exactly what we show you in the fast path to Cache to the smma blueprint and there was a ton of leads they got 40 leads that came through they picked one winner and two weeks later they announced the winner of the giveaway and they had 40 other you know 39 other leads that they could go after and say hey unfortunately you didn't win but here's 20 off your first visit so it was a very very successful campaign I made a case study about it I was pumped I was ready to go and I had a lot of confidence to go into the marketplace and start pitching clients so two weeks later we landed a client for twenty five hundred dollars a month in a completely different Niche now we're not Advocates of doing free work in hopes to get paid but when you're first starting you're just getting into the game it's vital for you to get experience have a case study and build confidence in yourself and really confidence is built by competence in a particular skill set area so we want to build competence by having you actually go out and do the work get a free trial get some experience and then be able to go into the marketplace and charge a high ticket offer so that's exactly what we did two weeks later 2500 bucks a month and we are set to go and I strongly believe if we didn't do that free trial we would not have landed that client we wouldn't have the confidence to go out into the marketplace and close that deal so it was vital for our success and the foundation of our business here's a good example Erica from the smma blueprint had no experience in marketing in sales or business and she went out and did one free trial for a dry cleaning facility I believe it was and for seven days ran a campaign did a giveaway offer they got a bunch of leads and then after the fact they actually decided to pay her fifteen hundred dollars a month to just keep running similar campaigns for their business you know this is a huge upside you may just get paid for doing this free trial but that's not the goal the goal is to get experience confidence and be be able to overcome the biggest objection that you could face as a new entrepreneur which is show me your work have you done this before do you have any case studies if you do one free trial you will have the ability to overcome this objection Forever This is a one-time deal that you can do and you will always have that experience you can fall back on if somebody ever asks you have you done this before show me your work and here's a bonus tip say you work with them for seven days and they can't afford you they can't continue to work with you and actually pay you a retainer moving forward say hey that's totally fine how about this I'll keep running your ads for the next 30 days for free but in return if I reach out to a prospect and they want to work with me and maybe they're on the fence and they just need to hear from a current client can I send them your number and you can connect with them and just vouch for me let them know I do a good job and now you're creating a referral Network for your business so you're turning that free client into 10 clients because they will advocate for you anytime you're at that close stage where they're not quite sure if they want to work with you or not you know it's tough to build trust in the beginning and this is a great way that you can build trust and get those deals over the hump if they don't want to continue paying you after the free trial so that's a bonus tip a great way that you can utilize those free trial clients to go and get five more ten more just by simply having them be advocates for your business so anyways we go over this process in depth in the smma blueprint the best course online the most complete course online for starting growing and scaling an smma we cover what the seven day case study should look like how to create a legal agreement how to go out and get that client how to fulfill those services and then how to actually turn that into a case study that you can Market again and again to multiply your business so check it out the links are in the description so that's it it sounds simple but most people won't take action they'll wait around until they feel confident until they feel like reaching out to business owners let me we break it to you that's not gonna happen you need to go out and get some experience in order to be confident so competence and skills build confidence in this business so there's no better way to go out and get that confidence get that skill set by doing the repetitions and simply doing a free trial so the ones that we see find success they stand up the foundation of their business and then immediately go and get experience get a case study and get into the marketplace that's the most important part because when you're starting your business it's so easy to overthink everything and this is the best way to break through that analysis paralysis and get some experience so you can then go and close some business so if you found any value from this at all
