If you're a freelance designer and have troubles talking to clients, use this entire sales from start to finish as a call a reference. This is how I talk to clients and I gave away my commission to show you how!
Besides just being good at a skill, learning how to speak with clients is a top notch skill that will help you earn more money. It's all about maximizing your commissions and I'll show you some tips and tricks that I use to earn more from each of your projects!
Through the entire sales process, I will highlight key important sales strategies and concepts that I use to navigate my way through the call. It's important to be comfortable with these ideas and be sure to practice a lot because closing deals is hard and can't be learned overnight!
Furthermore, I will show you the entire process of how I designed her logo and business cards.
I'm showing you this because this is something I've learned from my own trial and errors. As an entry level freelancer, I wish I had more advice when it came to the sales aspect of my business. Hope everyone here can learn something from this!

As a up and coming freelancer who's afraid to get his feet wet, this video actually helps so freaking much. I've always imagined what may go wrong during a phone call with my first client and if I will ever say something wrong that might steer them away, but the way you handle this client was very insightful. And the design process you went through really helps visualize how much work you had to put in. Excellent video and I'm so happy for the client. Subscribed and can't wait to see more content!

Talking to clients, when getting to the cost aspect, has always freaked me out. I was always afraid of being too low or too high. Asking the client what their budget is has greatly helped in the freak out department. Thank you, and please post more videos like this.

@GORILLA00 Год назад

I would say "you made my day", but it's almost 3:00am, so you made my night, duuude! I should change my targeted clients, cities and even country, cuz here in the middle east I can barely find a good client, and since my graduation in 2018, I didn't get any good client that would pay me over 200$, and they were very few clients, you can even count them on your hand! and I just want to add that I'm currently living the most depressed time in my life with almost everything around me, and I was searching everywhere on youtube for some videos to show me how to deal with clients, which appears to be that your way is easy and very close to what I do, too! thank you again, my friend, I know this is a long comment, but it was real and from my heart.

@Orlando_Saa 6 месяцев назад

Hey! I just wanted to thank you a lot for this piece of content you made. I've been looking for the full process a designer goes through with a client, from the first approach. So I can prepare my own process for the first and the consecutives clients. I didn't find it until now, this is very helpful for me, thank you so much!

@generalistmao9304 6 месяцев назад

Glad I could help! Goodluck on your freelance journey!

@skyrider4789 Год назад

The value of what you created was much higher than what she was willing to pay. You went above and beyond by gifting the project, which is unsustainable, but if it's helped you get clients, subscribers, and satisfaction, great.

@Lightflames85 10 месяцев назад

If you wanted to streamline the process then having some premade forms of commen questions you ask people you work with would help. Also a step by step guide of things you need from the client. Then how payment works. You get started and you send them how your process is. Guide them throw the process. You should have done this on the website to some extent but you go down to the details. Then you send a business package with your logo on it and the forms inside with links to your members area. Then you put all the information into a server and cast it back into the client area on your webpage and then having all the information at one place. Sure it take some to setup but hopefully you will never have to waist time again other then optimizing the process to the point you never have to explain this shit again. Also hitting the client with a quistionare at the end of what you can improve in the process really helps with retaining clients.

@phantomgamer1343 Год назад

What is that intro 😂

@sadepennbrook 4 месяца назад

Terrible idea. This situation had a good outcome because the client was agreeable and understanding. But NEVER EVER in a million years record someone without their initial consent. Meaning, they must understand, exactly at the initial encounter, that this conversation is being recorded. Not only is it illegal in some states to not disclose, but you risk litigation even in states where the law is more open-ended about one party consent because the law leaves it up to the individual to decide if they were harmed in anyway. And get this, the law doesn’t care if you published it or not. Any individual has a reasonable expectation of privacy. Ignorance is completely unforgivable.

@3883djkdkdkdk 3 месяца назад

You seem to think that they will incur legal expenses and take him to court over this matter, investing their time and energy. However, I’m confident he’s intelligent enough to be aware of what you've mentioned, yet nothing will happen because it’s not a significant issue
