Every time I see a post from Chris my brain triggers this thought process that it's time to go into 'student mood' and it's time to forget what I think I know about work.
This is actually the most close to heart advises and personal experiences and lessons learned from them that I have heard from Chris, specially the last 3 minutes!… Thank you for preparing this video!🍻
I've watched many coaches/teachers in youtube, courses, social media, etc but I've never seen no one more genuine and can teach as flawless as Chris. Even those who made more in profits than Chris. Finding TheFutur team was a real blessing to me and for that thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your videos have taught me so much. This channel is my go to before learning from others or when trying to understand better of what I've learn from other places.
@@thefutur I can't recall for sure but I think you showed up as a recommendation after I was watching Adam Elhart's video. I have a concern though, am from Uganda and offering digital marketing services, am finding it hard to adopt the premium pricing approach that Chris highly recommends considering the economic standards where I come from. So despite facing the challenges that comes with underpricing, am still left with the same option (to keep it low to survive), How could you advise me considering these economic factors and the pricing approach? I'd really appreciate.🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great content Chris, always with great key points and the way how you explain is phenomenal, I'm a big fan. I'm in the Accelerator program but I want to go to pro by the end of the year. Cheers!!
Notes I learn in the video: "I want 3 Ideas by Tuesday night, Is it something u can do?? and is okay for u to say no. I need to hear it now so that I won't disappoint later if there some part of this is confusing or too much for you to do let's have a conversation about it and then we can figure out what we can do" (caring for anyone~ (very Important) )
1:09:34 "if you're in a dead-end place don't add more services switch the vertical" for me, cutting off my agency's services helped to find the point of growth. OnceI started as a one-stop-shop for design and development. Then we cut off the development part. Then we ditched everything beyond UI/UX design for SaaS startups. And we ended up working on the subscription model exclusively -- just what helps to solve our clients' design problems in the best possible way.
About first topic: you could be a "general contractor", a proxy, and hire a "subcontractor" to do the job. You have client happy and still you didn't lost the client.
"what did you do before closing huge deals?" "So when we we're making 2m a year..." 🤣 Honestly, I like the general concepts and ideas from this channel... but for someone starting from nothing, a lot of this feels like this is the leveled up advice you need after you have something going. Another thing is this doesn't help people like me who live out in the woods of the deep south where there is nothing going on besides church and hating liberals. Idk, all wishful thinking at best.
Communication, communication, communication. This was absolutely amazing. Good to hear, especially the speaking, your mind, having uncomfortable conversations vs persuasion that leads to resentment. So good….
Amazing experience share wirh me thanks for your courage to share thanks for your exp., ❤ awesome 🎉 wisdom level 999 you are amazing teacher a great example
So much good here, thanks Chris. Not with the finder's fee lunch, but in other things I've started saying 'pay me what you think is fair' more and more, and it's ALWAYS exceeded my expectations or minimum I would have said yes to. It's grown-up talk, it shows confidence and it establishes a trust relationship rather than simple commodity pricing, and is 'anti-desperate'.
Honestly I don't understand how people make money with this stuff. I be busting my ass to get $500 logos 😂😂 Where tf are you guys finding these 10k projects lmao
this channel gives me hope that it is possible for virtue to exist in capitalism. we can all grow and scale together and compete in healthy sustainable ways.
Thank you for posting these valuable freebies for us, in my economy it's gonna take 3-6 months in order to afford Chris's paid services 😅 Greeting from Kazakhstan y'all, you guys are the best
