“Super-secret” & underrated way to sign clients
Video inside
Yesterday, mid-workout, I had a lightbulb moment.
Between a set of bicep curls and tricep extensions, I was casually chatting with a 6’3” mass monster.
Turns out, he's a freelance webdesigner.
“Cool man, I used to do the same,” I said. “switched to copywriting though.”
“Why'd you quit?” he asked.
“Well … writing is MUCH more fun to me. And back then, I spent more time chasing leads instead of actually designing.”
He laughed.
“Haha been there,” he replied.
Then he leaned in and told me about his “super-secret highly underrated client acquisition” (that's what he called it at least).
Apparently … this took him from 0 to $4k per month in 4 just months.
Now, I usually don't get hyped about random lead gen advice. But the sheer simplicity of his strategy made me want to share this.
So, after the gym, I sprinted home.
Didn't shower. Didn't eat.
I slammed open my laptop … impatiently waited for it to boot up … and opened PowerPoint.
(Yes, PowerPoint)
I just needed to map this out for you.
Here's the deal:
This strategy is NOT sexy. It's not fun. And it's not fancy in any way shape or form.
Truthfully … it’s quite boring.
But it works.
And if you're still struggling to sign high-paying clients … “fun” and “sexy” shouldn't be your priority.
You can worry about that when you have actual cashflow.
For now?
Do what gets you paid.
I broke down this strategy in a 6-minute YouTube video.
It's dead simple – which is probably why 99% of people ignore it. But if you put your ego aside and apply it … you could sign clients FASTER than you ever have before.
