I sell around 1.5-2m a year in website and design and marketing projects for a 5-7 person team mostly through a monthly adwords spend of $1k and portfolio references and being legitimate SEO experts so our site performs well and our client sites perform well.
Minimum website project is 5.5k, the moment I just stopped working with smaller budget clients, the moment my time opened up to pursue more profitable partnerships. The cap on sales is only on production assets and could easily be 2xed using the same methods and more lenient sales tactics.
Most clients could care less about technology, but most of our projects are in Umbraco which allows us to not be apples to apples to your run of the mill wordpress providers (im personally a fan of wordpress and have hundreds of WP sites from my affiliate marketing and webdesign background)
I reviewed your portfolio, if I was hiring or looking for a web provider, it wouldn't work for me because nothing in the portfolio is complete. You should determine your audience also as most of your portfolio language is heavy with design terms, business owners (if that is your audience) should be talked to in their own language.
- gotrythis 6y agoWhat's your site if I may ask?
- chronicler 6y agoIt would be great to get your advice regarding my company. I've started a small company and have 5 clients currently, I manage social media, SEO, website changes, content writing, etc. I'm charging a small upfront fee (about £500) followed by a monthly retainer for a minimum term of 12 months (£300). The problem I have is that it doesn't scale at all. ALL of my time is spent on SEO, Social Media Posting (Creating posts and then scheduling them), and finally content writing for blogs. I could hire people to do these things (i'm actually struggling to find jacks of all trades like myself) but the problem is that it's no longer profitable if I start hiring. Any advice? It would excellent if we could chat privately somehow.
