Free up your time and increase your income by offering your design skills as a subscription service.
WEEK 1
To productize your service, start by packaging it into a single page on the internet that reads like a SaaS product someone would want to buy.
WEEK 2
To make the entire system work, you need to connect several products that allow you to book leads, receive requests, and manage customers.
WEEK 3
Now that your MVP is launched and ready to market you’ll need to create some key materials that will convert cold leads into potential customers.
WEEK 4
Set up a system that includes an even mix of automated cold outreach, content marketing, and networking to start booking sales calls and landing your first customers.
COMING SOON: WEEK 5
You will need to handle all types of requests and revisions while ensuring top-quality work. Additionally, gathering testimonials from satisfied customers.
COMING SOON: WEEK 6 ONWARD
Once you have a steady stream of customers keeping you busy, you will need to find, hire, and manage a team of freelance contractors. This way, you can work as much or as little as you like.
