382 - Looking at a $2,000 Paid Discovery Offer with Racheal Graham 1:03:00

לפני 6 ימים1:03:00

1:03:00

Paid Discovery is a HOT topic right now in web design. The idea of getting paid for a discovery call – before wasting an hour of your day with someone who has a budget of $300 – is dang intriguing for pretty much every web designer. But then the questions come up… Is it just a consult/strategy call? How much do I charge for it? What if I don’t have enough experience or expertise? What’s included in paid discovery? What if I don’t want to be viewed as a digital marketing agency? Welp, we tackle all of those questions and more in this episode with Racheal Graham, an established web design agency owner who has a proven $2,000 paid discovery offer and who graciously pulls the curtain back on her entire process.

380 - Walkthrough of my 15k website proposal (real world paid example) 24:54

לפני 25 ימים24:54

24:54

Here's a walk through of one of my real world, paid 15k web design proposals. I walk you through what I included, how I structured it and the 3 keys I recommend that every web design proposal have. This audio is taken from a recent video I posted on my YouTube channel so I highly recommend checking out the video version if you'd like to see all the visuals! ⏯️ Watch the video version here And you share your thoughts, feedback and questions at the show notes for this one which will be at joshhall.co/380 Quick tips: Web proposals don't need to be complex PDF brochures to be effective—they need to clearly communicate goals, deliverables, and pricing to help clients make decisions quickly. • Website proposals should focus on three key elements: goals and expected results, a simple outline of deliverables, and clear costs presented as investments • The most effective proposals are scannable documents of 2-3 pages, not 20-page brochures that overwhelm clients • Include 10-15 high-level deliverables rather than an exhaustive checklist of every task you'll perform • Separate core website development from add-on services like SEO boosts or e-commerce functionality to create clear line items • Consider your proposal's audience—often they need to share it with CEOs or boards who need to quickly understand what they're approving • Real examples of successful proposals show consistent structure across different project sizes, from $4,000 to $15,000 • Payment schedules should be clearly outlined with 50% upfront for smaller projects or 30/30/40 splits for larger ones…

379 - Selling Growth Plans (& Transformation) for Web Designers in 2025 with Shannon Mattern 1:11:47

לפני 5 weeks1:11:47

1:11:47

Recently, my friend Shannon Mattern interviewed me on her The Profitable Web Designer podcast all about what's working well for web designers killing it in 2025. She's kindly offered to let me repurpose the whole convo for you! It's a bit of a 2-parter with part 1 being all about becoming more than just a web designer for clients, but a growth partner for bigger MRR (monthly recurring revenue) Part 2 covers more of what I went through in pivoting from selling information to selling transformation. Very parallel to web designers moving from selling a nice website design to selling a high-converting sales tool for clients. All the same lessons apply. Enjoy!…

378 - Managing Maintenance Plan Support Requests with Phil Storey of Glow 53:38

לפני 6 weeks53:38

53:38

Having a ton of maintenance plan clients is awesome - especially for the recurring revenue. But with ongoing support clients come with ongoing support requests. Managing this with a dozen or so clients is pretty easy. And as we all know – not all clients ping you every month with requests. But once you get to 30, 40, 50, 100 + maintenance plan clients, you’ve got to have a system for support. That’s why I’m pumped to share this chat I had with Phil Storey, founder and CEO of Glow. This one is interesting because, not only did Phil have some solid advice for handling support requests but it was also a chance for me to learn more about his platform. I’ve been using ManageWP since 2016 and while it’s still my preferred tool for managing multiple WordPress sites, you can’t link in non-WordPress sites and there’s no native support ticketing system. That’s one of the big value-props of Glow as you can add non-WP sites and their big differentiator in the market is the native support ticketing system. We dig into all of that and more!

377 - Lessons from a Web Designers' First Year in Business with Megan Fletcher 1:21:33

לפני 7 weeks1:21:33

1:21:33

Do you remember your first year in business as a web designer? Are you there now? One thing is common for all of us in the first year…it’s a rollercoaster of highs and lows, ups and downs, incredible days and perhaps dreadful days. But if you can survive that first year, chances are you’re going to make it. I’m so excited to bring onto the podcast Megan Fletcher who just crossed her first year official year in business and at the same time, had her biggest revenue month to date pulling in over 8k! She’s now got her sights set on a 6-figure business and has an incredible foundation to get there in year 2. In this chat, she shares all her lessons learned (both good and bad) from the first year of her business and most importantly, how she weathered a couple storms and got through the tough times. As a member of my community Web Designer Pro, I have to say these success stories are some of my favorites because I often see all the challenges, hardships and coach members when they’re in the thick of it…but I know there’s always a brighter future right ahead if they just stick with it!! And that’s exactly what Megan has done. Enjoy! Head to the show notes to get all links and resources we mentioned along with a full transcription of this episode at joshhall.co/377…

This special offer expires at the end of April 2025, so don't miss your chance to access all courses and join our thriving community!

376 - Are you a Web Designer or Brand Strategist? with Jacob Cass 1:11:21

לפני 8 weeks1:11:21

1:11:21

Web designers do a lot more than just web design… It’s not uncommon for us to be graphic and brand designers, photographers, strategists, copywriters, etc… So, should we call ourselves more than just a web designer? Award winning branding and design studio founder Jacob Cass, who’s worked with Disney, Nintendo and Jerry Seinfeld, has done it all and has some invaluable experience and perspective to share when it comes to how web designers can position themselves nowadays. One of the many things I learned from talking with Jacob is – if you position yourself in a way that’s right for you, you’ll watch your revenue climb, you’ll attract better clients and enjoy your work more.

375 - 5 Years In and Thriving with "Web Designer for Speakers" Kristin Adkins 1:13:25

לפני 9 weeks1:13:25

1:13:25

There’s nothing better than talking to a web designer who’s enjoying their work, loving their clients, making good money and who’s just all around thriving. And that’s why I’m pumped to share this recent convo I had with Kristin Adkins of Crash Design Co who’s found a suite niche by becoming the trusted “web designer for speakers” Kristin was on the podcast (ep 143) when she had just gone full time and I thought it was a good time to catch up because now, 5 years later, she’s grown her business, nailed her niche and continues to love every minute of it. A lot of web designers get burned out, take too much on or have goals that lead to stress and growth pains but Kristin’s done it right by building a business around her lifestyle goals and mid-west pace. This was a hard one to title because we get into everything from: Niching Scaling/hiring Building a referral network Raising rates Sticking with Elementor (and not having shiny object syndrome) The value of sending clients “website launch packs” And so much more. But it’s all the things that have led to her having an amazing first 5 years so that’s what we get into in this one. P.S. Wouldn’t it be cool to see her website launch pack examples and process? Kristin will be doing a special guest training inside Web Designer Pro™ this summer so jump on in to connect with her!

In this first-ever quarterly income report, we'll get into how we achieved $115,655 in revenue with over $88,000 in profit while building Web Designer Pro to $346,459 in annual recurring revenue.

374 - How to Get Web Design Clients through Social Media Videos with Blaze Smith 1:07:47

לפני 10 weeks1:07:47

1:07:47

The social media video and reel game is a hard one to play (and win) when it comes to landing clients. Every platform is beyond saturated, the competition is only growing and unless you’re getting quality leads fairly quick, it can be difficult to stick with. But as Roberto Blake has recently been quoted in saying: ”While there may be saturation in a market, there’s not a saturation of “quality.” This could not be more timely for you if you’re wanting to market your web design business with videos and reels. And there may be no better example of this than my guest in this chat, Blaze Smith Blaze, who at a very young age, started getting clients immediately through Instagram and TikTok reels. Many of them with big brand CEO’s, founders and marketing directors. We get into his process from planning, to recording, to the proven strategies and blueprints he follows for all his videos which have not only brought in quality leads, but have also built up his social media following to tens of thousands in a matter of months. If you’re wondering how to stand out and get clients with reels, here ya go.

Ok web designer – tell me if this sounds familiar… You sign on a new client for a website project! But then, they send you their atrocious logo… Now what? Do you design the website based on their terrible logo/existing brand? Do you try to upsell an unexpected logo/brand package? Do you pause the website project and tell them to hire a new logo designer first? This is a very common challenge for web designers but there is a solution! Repeat guest and branding expert Jamie Starcevich has really dialed in a nifty solution for this situation which is, in short, to offer a “Light Branding Package.” In this chat, we get into all the details of how to offer it, what constraints to put on it, how much to charge for it and more!
