Will this Method work

Jeepy said:

I have sold speed optimization services here and I still do it to some old clients, but one I can say - with that, it's even hard to earn average income not even to mention some money for other projects. You can get some basic money, but the work you need to put in is quite hard. Also, you need quite the knowledge to do that because if you don't no one will trust you with his money site.

So once you have a portfolio which consists of at least 20 websites then you are ready to go public if not I would stay away from a guy like you with my websites

Speed optimization is not just installing a caching plugin, it's a testing, tweaking and making better and secure and there are so many small things you need to be acknowledged of.

I'll be targeting small business with 5-6 pages and I'll be outsourcing all the work to seller who'll provide reports and all stuff

I don't have prior coding knowledge

You don't have to have any coding knowledge since you're just reselling the service. I suggest you to learn a couple of fancy words to seem that you know what you're doing. You'll naturally get better at it after a few successful pitches.

Give it a try bro, you don't need to have experience, You can learn anything online. No harm in trying.

I'm in India I guess one fee would be great cause there won't be much changes on those websites

Well.... a one time fee doesn't sound too promising. Websites need security month after month, year after year. Perhaps you could sell them on the idea that under your supervision their websites will be more secure, for a convenient fee of... $100/month

try to learn something technical if you are interested in technical things , otherwise you should learn about at least the product that you are selling or sell less technical things

take care of scam

I'm a website owner. Sell me your service right here, right now.

If you do a good job, I will literally pay you the $100 to get one of my sites optimized.

Do it here in the thread.

I have a VERY heavy theme (Divi) and it's hosted by wordpress.com.

Which not a lot of people know--wordpress.com doesn't offer cpanel, caching, or allow a buttload of other plugins.

Sell me.

Edit: Grammar and PS. I'm not trying to be a dick. I'm teaching you how to start a business.

That's a report I made for one of my clients

• • The JS files are not minified and they also need to be combined to be one file only
  • None of the JS files are deferred. The unneeded JS files should be deferred.
  • All images should be optimized. (lossless)
  • You should implement a CDN to load lots of things async from various different servers.
  • Reduce DNS lookup via Cloudflare DNS integration.
  • It seems like you have a caching mechanism but it should be improved by a new configuration.
  • I'll work on these areas
• Your website currently loads at 12.1 seconds and I assure to optimise under 6 seconds

Okay, just what I thought. This mainly wouldn't work because you don't know how to communicate the value of what you do.

Business owners couldn't give 2 fucks about website speed.

You need to be able to explain what that means to THEM. Explain how they can benefit from it.

The first thing you should have done--way before you PM'd me asking for my website, is ask me questions.

Ask me questions to get an idea of where I am, what I know, and what I want to achieve.

After that, you can angle the website speed optimization in a way that would make me feel motivated to purchase your service.

As of right now, I just reported your email as spam and called you a fucking scrub.

edit: Read this and try again.

I agree on the part that this was a technical part which was boring no one would have given a shit( It was supposed to be a report kinda)
TBH I am not very sure about sales pitch but I'll consider website speed importance, how you are loosing out, how you'll get an edge against competitors and increase your conversion rate etc etc ,

• What if something breaks during the process?
  You will not see any breaks since we have a strong testing policy on our team. We test your website both on desktop & mobile after each small change to see if something got broken. If something got broken, we fix it in a few minutes.

So, outreach works like this:

First, you need to get their attention. Next, you need them to listen. After they listen, they should want a solution. Finally, you just happen to have what they're looking for.

I'm a busy business owner. I'm going throughout my day dealing with employees and annoying customers. I also have a nagging wife that's always pissed off that I'm always busy and I have 15 kids who all need attention.

How are you going to direct my attention away from all my problems and get me to listen to you?

Edit: @IncognitoSince2002 I hope you're paying attention and taking this serious. EVERYONE who learns how to sell makes atleast $100k/year. B2B sales guys starting salary is like $90k + $130k in comissions.

Here's a story to highlight what I mean by grabbing attention.

I use to do door to door sales. Everyone HATED me just showing up and interrupting whatever they had going on.

When I first started, I was quiet and shy and very taken back by rejection.

But then I learned how to get attention.

It was a few years ago in Colorado, I was selling security alarms. Our pitch was that we were looking for "homes that could advertise our sign".

In exchange for the sign, we would give them "free" security system and charge them the monthly security fee.

Every time I knocked on the door, they would immediately say, "not interested" and close the door.

But then I started saying, "hey have you heard what's been going on around the neighborhood?"

If I said it just right--with volume just above a whisper, they would lean in, shake their head, and say no.

Then they would ask me what was going on.

THEY JUST STARTED LISTENING TO ME.

Obviously, you want to try not to lie to people, but sometimes you have to be a little sneaky about it.

First preference would be to cold call or directly approach clients ( have some dad's contacts)
For email outreach
Hey there,
I decided to get in touch with you after I ran some tests involving local businesses in your
area.
Your business stood up from the rest, but not in a good way…
I don’t want to waste too much of your time, so I won’t dive into the specifics too much...
Just know that your business is among the last few local businesses in your area without a optimised website
This is very unfortunate because website speed is already helping dozens of other
local businesses in your area to get more clients and better conversions
And I can vouch for that, as I have personally helped some of them to optimize
their website speeds by guaranteed 2X
I’ll be happy to explain the website speed optimization principles if you’re interested. In fact, I’m
willing to bet that I’ll be able to take your business to the next growth threshold
If you decide to recover the gap between your business and the competition, get in touch
with me and we can schedule a meeting at the earliest convenience.
You can reach me by replying to this email or by calling me on my private phone:
[Phone Number]
Looking forward to hearing back from you.
[Your Name]
[Your Agency Name]
[Your website]

Ahhh too much of work

Not to worry, you're learning. Failure is perfectly okay. Never forget that.

First thing, you want them to open your email. Which means you need to grab their attention.

If you're going after your dad's contacts, you can write something like this. Hey {Name of person you're emailing}, {Name of your dad} sent me your contact info.

Then you want them to listen.

So you want to find a problem and bring it up into their consciousness. Most business owners want more leads because that means more revenue. If they're at the top of the search results, they have no reason to listen to you because they're maxing out their ability to get leads. HOWEVER, if you say, "hey you're getting results from this keyword but not this other one because of your speed", then you have something going for you.

So, you're contacting your dads friends. They read the subject line. They know your dad, so they open the email.

Mr. {Name},

I'm reaching out, because {Dad's name} said that you were having some issues getting leads from your SEO.

I ran some diagnostics on your website and I know EXACTLY why this is happening.

Boom!

This guy is on the edge of his seat with his mouth watering.

They understood the features and how it could benefit them but I feel they are hesitant to give access ( most of them don't know or someone else manages for them)

Congrats you received your first sales objection.

Objections always come up before you seal the deal.

It means you’re close.

You need to ask questions to clarify exactly what they mean.

Then you need to craft a response that will allow you to overcome that barrier.

when they say someone else manages is, it could mean a million things:
-They think the other person is already doing it.
-You haven’t shown that you’re credible.
-They’re afraid of making their website guy angry
-They don’t see it as valuable enough to make the effort to change things

So the question is: do they not TRULY see the value, do they not trust you, or what is the real reason they aren’t willing to make it happen?
