This style is very effective. I've always liked this about Chris' teaching. It shows that you care enough to walk away because you know they'll return to you if needed. Happy selling everyone.
I love how Chris sells himself AND gives value at the same time. I find hard to find balance in pricing because I'm so afraid of the rejection, the "this is too expensive" phrase, but the Futur content helps to embrace the basic truth - really listen and be respectful towards yourself. The rest falls into places itself.
@@theriddhimaan Yeah, reaching out cold always seems kinda weird. When someone cold dms me, my first thought is either: 1. Scammer from a Nigerian call center. Or 2. They service must be dog water, cuz they don't have any better leads. So if you need to be reaching out cold, it's probably good to start with relationship building and providing value. That way you can learn if your service will benefit them, and they'll trust you before you start tryna sell your Gimmicks, right? That's just my perspective from having people cold dm me.
Can anyone confirm if they have already tried the "I'm not sure a company of your size can afford us"? How did it go? Genuinely curious as it sounds like the rudest thing to say, and I thought as artists we need to build rapport and a good relationship with our clients.
Hey Chris, what does it mean if my clients don't have any objections to my pricing? Am I charging too little or are they just good clients? For context, the labour isn't cheap and already priced above average. Cheers.
@@thefutur It sounded a bit like you had included Germany in the Eastern European countries without any opportunities, haha. 🤣 To be honest, Germany has been on a steep decline for a couple of years now. But anyways, thanks for the "can you even afford us' line. I will definitely use it the next meeting with a client to trigger his ego 🤝💰❤️

“I’m not expensive, you’re poor” 😂 I love it
Chris really nails the art of handling objections with grace and strategy.
Thank you

Strong leaders demand actions, weak leaders demand options...
Thank you Chris for demanding actions🔥
I didn't think of these like this but this statement makes sense.
It's nice to receive advice thats universal to most business types, also helps me believe in myself a bit considering im semi-new.
This video is an another gold mine of extremely helpful, insightful and actionable information. Thanks for sharing Chris and the Future fam.
Coming back to this time stamp. 11:20
Chris, can you make a video on how to approach clients via cold DMs or cold emails or cold calling without using the cliche direct pitching?
Why are you doing those things in the first place?
@@Jesse_Leyk To get clients. Is there any other reason people do that?
@@theriddhimaan is it working?
@@Jesse_Leyk For now it's so-so working... But I need a better way to do that

The whole video is so powerful 🔥
Hey Chris, thanks for the video 😊
This is extremely useful. Thank you, Chris! Are there any other book recommendations on the sales and negotiations subject ?
Never split the difference
Not related to the video but the video editing is so clean. What typeface is used, looks super clean!
Helvetica
Chris, I would love a video around how to build character profiles and personas
I can do one better. I can provide you with a GPT script when we do the video so you can copy and paste it. how does that sound?
@@thefutur yes please
Client: Yeah I will save the money.

Ò in ❤

6:07-5:33 is not very. too many metaphors. what exactly are you trying to say here? 🙏
Excuse me? i'll let you know that im the number 1 Digital Broccoli website designer in the world!
back when Chris was rocking his howie mandel look xD
Pre cap
I mean, the video is good, but too abstract. Old versions of this conversation has better, more applicable, content and examples.
Thank you for the feedback
Yooo Chris 😂😂 did you just trashed Germany into an cheap country without opportunities? Hahahaha
No. I’d never do that.
