I hope people understand how rare it is to get this level of raw insight into a coaching session. There is a mountain of Gold here for those that have 'eyes to see'.
@@thefutur agreed its not the norm, however what it has done for your brand, your creditability, and value! I compare this to, say a new cookie shop, giving away there cookies to some influential people, which will come back to you in folds! You are goin places, Be well, Be real, and Be you!!

i was literally trying to follow along, connecting the dots with another video of his where he teaches the framework. and you did it better!!! with time-stamps! thank you bro!
Step 4: Framing price & close Normally, agencies charge 20% the value you'd get only in the first year. Thats 20% of 1.25mil = ~240k and I can solve that for you. How do you want to guarantee it? If can't guarantee it. If I could guarantee it, the number would be close to 1.2mil. The higher the price of the solutio, the less risk there is. So if I am to come up with some solutions, I need a few days, to write a plan for you and Iwill come up with a few pricing options.Are you ok with me doing that?
Chris Do is the smoothest, unbothered person I've ever seen. Like imagine how to make him speechless it's impossible his wife must be good at arguing lol
Best 47 mins of my day! Anytime Chris do speaks it blows my mind. Just seeing you two guys together speak on something I'm looking to raise myself (Value) helped me so much ! Thank you always Ron!
Both these guys are awesome. Their ideas and talks have inspired me so much. I do try to keep in mind what pieces of this industry I am passionate about. I'm not only passionate about making money.
Incredible watching this 4 years later and see how it's all come together. First, breaking down imaginary boundaries and putting a real plan together to make it happen. SO valuable. Bravo.
I feel like I could listen to Chris speak all day long. He makes a 47 min video goes as fast as 2 min. Just love the value of his thinking! Thanks Ran and Chris for this, you guys are changing a lot of lives for the better, I know mine is!
This is amazing. We, as viewers, basically received a free consultation from Master Do! And now we also get to follow along Ran's journey as he takes the Business Bootcamp! So dope!
Aside from Chris's brilliant way of defining value and putting a price tag on it, he's also using the rules of commitment and consistency. He's making the client say in their own words how much THEY think the value is. Very important, if you make them say it they are committed to that thinking and it will force them to be consistent with that - otherwise they'll be seen as unstable and unreliable if they back track, especially when both parties agree.
What a wonderful video. I admire Chris a lot and this video is just proof of the value his mentality brings to all designers. Thanks Ran for filming your own interview with him. It has been very valuable, and also very fun! Greetings from Argentina!
Learned of Chris Do a few weeks ago, amazing. Just learned of you, Ran a few days ago...and now seeing this convo just blew my mind...especially because I also just watched Inception tonight and you reference it?! What?! No coincidences in life, I guess I am really watching what I am meant to! This conversation is a MUST for any and all young designers to watch.
One of the things that makes Chris Do a really smart guy is that he wants to share his skills and knowledge with you. Another is that he tells you how he came to know or understand what it is he's sharing with you. Thank you for this excellent interview on your excellent channel.
Such an informative video. Thank you Chris and Ran for this priceless meeting! It is so valuable to all creative professionals who want to start their own freelance business. Thank you guys! Ran I am a fan of your videos for years now!
Gold...the high/super-high comment is so true...both in seeing what my competition delivers Vs what I deliver, and in always knowing that the clients genuinely and rarely know what they are missing. Certainly, as I've involved others in the business, I've had to accept that my standards are not the only solution...
This is really mind-blowing. Even though, I am just a recent grad and looking for a job, this video provides me clear path or goal to be more efficient and bring more value to my design work. Thanks for both of you for sharing this information.
I am living in China for the past 12 years and the only reason my creative business has grow is because I talk about value, and this is actually pretty difficult here in China. Everyone wants cheap cheap but keeping my strategy steady has paid off... Now I have a very solid business and pretty big clients that come to me again and again. This video is really amazing and I cannot wait to see more. These 2 guys are awesome.
Compelling video, obviously referred to me because I follow 'The Futur' and everything Chris Do. The title of this video SHOULD be: "Becoming a $500/hr Consultant: A Chat w/ Chris Do of The Futur". You're very articulate, and I wish you the best...
I remember your video with Chris Do and as a Digital designer it was important for me to see the results of that. That time I was a junior UI/UX designer in a small company based in Yerevan, Armenia. It helped me a lot, your channel was like a reminder of what to do to stay passionate for every project. Thank you for that shift it helped me be where i am now. and more exited to see what upcoming years are gonna be.
What an amazing conversation, this is worth a lot. Thank you so much Ran for sharing this video in full. I took so much value out of this that I can't even think of a number to put on it.
Two superstars design entrepreneur together?! In the same video! This is really too much for a You Tube. You guys are a total inspiration! I enjoy every one of your videos. I totally enjoy watching both of you talking about these things that we are so passionate about. Awesome! Made my day! Period! :))
A thank you doesn't seem fitting enough for allowing us to be a fly on the wall of this powerful consulting experience. Although it doesn't specifically correlate to my business, conceptually its spot on and I'm exciting to put these ideas into practice. Appreciate you sharing this.
I stumbled on this episode since it’s picking all sorts of Chris Do content. This is amazing. Thank you for sharing this. I know Chris charges money for this kinda work and it’s amazing to see this process. I’m taking lots of notes. Hope you’ve reached your goals since this was aired!
ok, so I have watched your videos for the last 24 hours and its been by far the most informative content. I am in the process of switching from brick and mortar to consulting and have no idea how to start. thank you for all this great info!
This was amazing. Thank you so much for sharing this content Ran ! You're awesome, im so happy to see you pursuing a better life day after day. Best of luck !
Such valuable converstion! To really change and make a difference, it does take a master consultant but also an open mind to absorb new knowledge! Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks for sharing Ran, the talk was really good to listen to! Best of luck with all the steps you need to figure out for scaling your business! Will be following along here.
This video was packed with so much amazing value, definitely need to rewatch it again. Love Chris Do and his RUclips channel. Excited to see your journey in growing your business along the way!
Thank you Ran, for sharing this wonderful conversation with Chris I just stumbled on this video and it was worth every minute i watched. Thank you again Ran and Chris.
I appreciate the knowledge of the value on every video you guys make, it helps me a lot. But, in my honest opinion, it would be a lot better to hear discussions without interrupting the other person. But, then again, it's just my point of view. Thank you both for providing knowledge for us, as a creative people and as a human being in general. With respect, Adrian.
"But, in my honest opinion, it would be a lot better to hear discussions without interrupting the other person." it's just a natural human conversation, it involves genuine emotional reactions at real time, it is a mean of the personality, nothing wrong
Ran! Your channel is amazing! I love that you have such a great attitude. Watching your latest videos has inspired and motivated me to take more action and move my design career forward. Stay awesome!
4 years on, he's closing in on 500k subs. I wonder if he hits his $4m goal. Nevermind if he didn't but he has the guts to dream BIG and goes after them...
Brilliant Ran, really appreciate sharing such a valuable content. Master Do's reach continues to grow! Really cool video with loads of great content to think about. Had considered the Futur's Business course but hopefully will be in a position the next time if they run it again.
Cool vid. My small business is very new and small, but there were definitely very new ways of thinking here that I might be able to apply, that is quite revolutionary. Thank you.
This is gold! I liked it on the thumbnail alone :D You two are a great pairing! I mean the energy, your openness and integrity, it's a value on its own. And btw... When I see an episode with Chris Do, I expect it to last at least 30 minutes, otherwise I'm disappointed ;)
Absolutely amazing. I love this! Thanks so much for sharing! I think it is so encouraging to see this kind of meta thinking around the projection and planning of the creative business! Thanks again!
I hope people understand how rare it is to get this level of raw insight into a coaching session. There is a mountain of Gold here for those that have 'eyes to see'.

Thanks for watching! Happy you found it helpful. 🙏

LOVED this video. Hits so close to home with what I am currently going through. Loved it, favorited it, and added it to multiple playlists.
Silly of me not to block it, still you can’t see Cvv and I have 2 factor authentication for unfamiliar transactions so not too worried
Flux glad to hear. I'll edit the comment and this one as to not draw attention. Keep up the awesome work man!
This is like a dream come true!! 2 guys I really look up to in the design community.. so good!!! 🙌🙌👍👍🙏

Very cool seeing Chris on your channel! Thanks for all the valuable content.
Thanks for sharing this content! This is brilliant and not a lot of people are willing to share that many information with the public.
The Most awaited Video. Thanks, Ran.
24:48 when Chris Do starts billing you 🙌🏽😂 Love it!
2 of my most inspiring designers. keep the good work guys
Kuda Shamu I second that
Kuda Shamu will do.
4 years on, he's closing in on 500k subs. I wonder if he hits his $4m goal. Nevermind if he didn't but he has the guts to dream BIG and goes after them...
wow Flux + Futur!? The video I didn't know I wanted, this was extremely helpful and nice to watch!
You guys are heaven-sent for me! Thank you for sharing this wonderful interview video. You guys are like top of my inspiration list. :)
How did I miss this? The great Chris Do and my idol in one video! Wooo
No kidding it was the most insightful 47 minutes I ve could ever have!! Thank you for sharing!!! Hope you can make it to your goal!
Brilliant Ran, really appreciate sharing such a valuable content. Master Do's reach continues to grow! Really cool video with loads of great content to think about. Had considered the Futur's Business course but hopefully will be in a position the next time if they run it again.
Amazing session. Thanks a lot for you being open and sharing with it!
Wao! Two of my favorite designers whom I follow. This video is going to be so insightful I know it!
Cool vid. My small business is very new and small, but there were definitely very new ways of thinking here that I might be able to apply, that is quite revolutionary. Thank you.
This is so brilliant love to see this kinda video.... best of luck man.
Writing this down so it sticks in my head: “Value is telling them something they didn’t know”
Ran is an amazing teacher, but Chris is just WAY up there.
This content is super rich and it’s all for free! Thank you so much!
I mean I already watch Chris and have been for a while, but that was crazy valuable!
This is gold! I liked it on the thumbnail alone :D You two are a great pairing! I mean the energy, your openness and integrity, it's a value on its own. And btw... When I see an episode with Chris Do, I expect it to last at least 30 minutes, otherwise I'm disappointed ;)
It's like Starsky and Hutch, Bonnie & Clyde, Fred & Ginger.
Do & Flux
Cool Conversation. Boost My Confidence to Work smart and charge my client more based on the outcome.
I love Chris Do. This was amazing to watch.
Cool. Finally both of you met!
Ronald Surya it was bound to happen.
Wow...this even blew my mind! Lol! Thanks for sharing this conversation! Very informative and inspiring!! And you will get there!
Best of luck on the journey!
Super helpful, cool to hear advice being given to a real person instead of hypothetical people
Talk about a cup of inspiration/knowledge smacked into the face, amazing value!
Jose A. Santana Jr. Lol.
Wtf this is soooo valuable for me as a designer! Love it
Chris is gold!
Absolutely amazing. I love this! Thanks so much for sharing! I think it is so encouraging to see this kind of meta thinking around the projection and planning of the creative business! Thanks again!
