Your First Client - A Roadmap
Your path to closing your first client (from zero)...
When it comes to trust in sales.
Promises are great.
But proof is better.
If you’re struggling to close your first client, listen up.
This one’s for you.
Here’s the exact path I took to get my first client for my service business:
Build your offer and beta test it for free
Refine the proof of concept
Re-launch as a paid offer
Phase one: Beta Testing (MVP)
Pick a niche
Understand their problem
Solve that problem for them
Create a simple service offer
Set up your funnel and get leads
Book calls and deliver the free service
Repeat until you genuinely help people
Step two: Proof of Concept
Overdeliver for clients
Request testimonials (proof)
Get feedback on your service
Use feedback to iterate the solution
Prepare a launch date for your paid offer
Step three: Paid offer
Post content about the problems you solve
Turn the testimonials into marketing assets
Go ham on the manual outreach (warm DMs)
Do everything you did in phase 1 but this time charge money (because it’s actually proven now).
Follow this roadmap and it’s going to be hard to fail.
Why?
There’s nothing more convincing than factual evidence.
Show proof that you can solve their problem.
And they’ll be willing to buy.
It’s just a matter of time.
Talk soon,
Sean
