Closed my first deal at $2580

Probably my first post here and it's exciting to share that after months of watching and learning on the side, I finally closed a client for website and social media package (AI does everything). The first month fee + setup is $2580, plus $1500 ongoing monthly retainer fee.

My goal was to use as much free resources as possible in this free community to close my first deal, then upgrade to the plus community where i can amplify my results, and I can finally join AIS+ now 💃

HOW I CLOSED THE DEAL

I got the client through a Facebook group (women entrepreneurs group) where they were seeking someone to build their website, SEO and social media. I commented among many others, but i also proceeded to send them a DM offering to create a FREE sample of how their homepage and social media content could look like. They agreed to let me do so, and after a few weeks of back amd forth, the client signed the offer and paid for the first month invoice.

Disclaimer: I have some redundant digital marketing skills.

THINGS THAT WORKED FOR ME

Branding. When i posted without a brand website, I got nothing. Then i went ahead to create a branded agency website and that somehow served as proof to clients that I could do what I was proposing.

Secondly, I was honest with the client that I just starting and had no portfolio or references, but I would create a sample for them at no cost, to make up for the zero references - it worked.

Overall, i want to say thank you to this community for all the free resources you've shared to aid beginners like me. Especially those that share their wins. Seeing others win had always been the strongest signal for me to persist harder.
