Free website design is irresistible, but if you can tell them what’s wrong with their current website, why they should improve it, and how it will help them, that would increase the conversion rate. If you can pinpoint specific issues like low speed or non-responsiveness and explain how these issues are hurting their business, that would be even better.
I tried calling like this for around 100 businesses with no or shitty websites so far and I've gotten like 3 maybes. I think it almost sounds too good to be true. Or maybe Canada just filled with punanis I dunno
Sam - Your approach is good, most will likely say "why not, it's free" and you might close a few, but.... I suggest you add "our modern website design introduces a new feature that will allow you to increase your sales by...." As you know, conversion is not easy, so show them how you can help them increase their business.
4:10 "I like giving away free value" You could also be at risk of giving your skills no value to say you'll do it for free. Tradies know nothing is free so they're probably thinking "what's in it for him?" which is why they're not giving buying signals. Also, a little tip, asking "are you still trading" might get better results than "are you still operating"
Great video! Timing can be tricky when calling from outside the US. From my experience, reaching out during US business hours, particularly mid-morning to early afternoon (EST), tends to be most effective. Could you tell me the best time to contact?
Try not saying um so much, also speaking too fast, you sound very nervous and unsure of what you're saying and people pick up on that. Been doing high ticket sales, and cold calling for over 15 years. Just wanted to help : )
Hi Ive been trying really hard to improve my cold calling and I’ve seen your comment on this video. Is there any way i can get you to help me a bit with my coldcalls? Maybe be looking over some of my calls and giving advice or something… I would be happy to help you out however i can if you need my help with anything be it manual web scraping for leads or whatever. I am highly motivated and would love an exchange where the both of us gain something if you were to give me the chance. Thanks for the good tips in this comment in any case.
@@Rīñrnp you can share the script you use perhaps and I would be able to tell you what I think about it. I am not an expert but I use a similar method to Sam.
Wish this was easier but I think it's just obvious to them that you want to sell something in the end, taking your time to call someone and constantly push back when they sway. Also the mention of the word website is not the best thing to say. I would say "A new custom space online to showcase your work" or something more appealing. Mind you I haven't done this yet though because I'm already dead after my first cold call wanting to run away and do email marketing instead lol.
Pavlo is calling people that don't have websites so the "are you still in business" makes more sense than asking that of somebody that already has a website. And then offering to send a free design to somebody that already has a website is going to be a bigger hurdle to jump.
Do i charge a monthly fee after the website is built? I think its important to build a residual income otherwise we are gonna be chasing clients all the time to stay ahead. Love the video btw. Im also a uk lad 🇬🇧 near birmingham
Great Value! I have a question. I'm a web developer who recently started an agency specializing in dental practices. My initial plan was to hire a designer from Fiverr to create a Figma design once I secure a client, and then I would develop and host the website. However, I really like your idea of providing a free design upfront. Given that I'm not proficient in design and it would cost me if I fail to close the client, what would you suggest? How can I effectively offer a free design initially without incurring significant costs? are you using the same wireframe of a design that you will show to the client???
I like offering value first. If you were to hire a sales person or run paid ads that’d still cost you. Offering a free design gets you in the door with a lot of companies. Test it on a few and see if it’s effective for you :)
Absolutely love this! ♥♥ Out of curiosity, are you calling their mobiles or business numbers? I've set up and agency and about to start cold calling - was wondering I'll get in trouble for calling mobiles from a data protection point of view
You’re getting resistance when you present a valuable thing for free from absolutely nowhere. You’re much better off offering less value or charging a small amount to get customer buy in
as a professional cold caller I can tell you have some practice, i have mostly the same tonality that comes from thousand of calls, your delivery is a bit sub optimal though, you sound too much like a salesman at time, should be more friendly/familiar and focus on questiology, but you are pretty decent. You could improve a lot with less delivery focus on what you want to say , and more questiology-familiarity, you need to gain the trust of people, sounding serious and motivated is nice but it can be even better
You’re a professional cold caller man. Are you a “professional” closer though? Being professional cold caller is not enough not closing the sale. Just saying. The creator really good in doing cold calling for trying to book a call. At least he has the guts to do it and practiced to improve his skills.
How do you get money if you're just offering a free web design? Or is it if they like the design you can build it for a price? Also before calling do you create a different mockup of the website every time or use the same one?
Heyy. Cool video.. each time I called they don't schedule the call. They rather say I should send the free website to them on Whatsapp. So how do I noe get them to book the call after sending them the free website on Whatsapp
Hey man. Not really sure about this approach. Seems abit like your begging for the deal.. you say questions like its free... free value would be like giving a lead..
So… you spend the time designing a free site, but they haven’t committed to anything yet? Are you using templates to make the design phase faster? If not, seems like a lot of wasted time… Also, wouldn’t the client be better served if you asks what they think could be improved about their site?
While I commend you for your efforts on outreach and cold calling, think this approach is massively flawed. By simply offering a free sample you’re in danger of forever creating free designs and never seeing any money. I think you would be better talking to the customer about how the website you built for client generated x amount of more business. Most companies will identify with looking to new and innovative ways to drive more business. I would start with something like an honest permission based opener. Then ask the customer if they are experiencing any of the problems you could fix for them through a new website. You can then discuss what you’ve done for other companies and how the thing you did had a direct impact to their business.
@TheSamuelDarby Which tool do you use for cold calling. I am looking for a Software like Skype which has reasonable rates for calling The only reason I am unable to use it because I am from India and Skype doesn't offer local numbers of any specific country in India.
Great Value! Hi Samuel, I have some collaboration ideas and suggestions to share with you. What's the best way to contact you directly? Please let me know!

You should only do that once you get the appointment booked. You don’t wanna talk too much or sound too salesy in a cold call
They don’t care about that they care about results only.
I tried calling like this for around 100 businesses with no or shitty websites so far and I've gotten like 3 maybes. I think it almost sounds too good to be true. Or maybe Canada just filled with punanis I dunno
They cut the call before you say anything most of the time. So a free website at 1st is good catch most of the time.
@@scum3112 on the contrary, open up with familiarity, say what's wrong with their website, book the call
Sam - Your approach is good, most will likely say "why not, it's free" and you might close a few, but....

Love this approach. Lead with value. Enjoying the series looking forward to the next video
Appreciate that!

Been struggling with cold calling and I’ve been using a similar script to yours but I will never give up till I get my first client
Never give up
Try this method, hopefully it helps!
Any results so far?
Any results?
No I’ve been with my brother for the past 2 weeks because he’s won’t be living with us anymore but I’m back cold calling
Also knowing the business owners name helps by 5x… I don’t know where I got the figure but I feel like its right!
Cool video! This makes me feel better about doing this. Its pretty daunting haha
Great video! Timing can be tricky when calling from outside the US. From my experience, reaching out during US business hours, particularly mid-morning to early afternoon (EST), tends to be most effective. Could you tell me the best time to contact?
Your tutorial is exceptional I will try this method from now on and let’s see if this works for me too❤️
Please do!
i don't know how many times watched this video. Please make another part love from Pak♥
Try not saying um so much, also speaking too fast, you sound very nervous and unsure of what you're saying and people pick up on that. Been doing high ticket sales, and cold calling for over 15 years. Just wanted to help : )
How do you recommend to open the call with? I get hung up on immediately most times 😭

I agree that we shouldn’t say um so much, but cold calling can make anyone nervous, with time I believe, we get better.
It sounds more natural and less salesy…
@@Rīñrnp you can share the script you use perhaps and I would be able to tell you what I think about it. I am not an expert but I use a similar method to Sam.
Pavlo script
Not really it's mixed

I can see when you are on call your hands were little shaking it happens to me aswell😉
🥴😅
People are so much nicer in your country than the US 😅
i mean it depends on the person
😂
This is encouraging .
Amazing how many companies just answer the call with 'hey' ...why not use the conpany name when answerijg 😅
Pavlo makes it look so easy lol.
Pavlo is calling people that don't have websites so the "are you still in business" makes more sense than asking that of somebody that already has a website. And then offering to send a free design to somebody that already has a website is going to be a bigger hurdle to jump.
Why do you offer to send the design instead of getting them on a call? does that not complicate the process with extra follow ups?
This is very interesting!
Hey when do you reckon is the best time to do calls for trades businesses?
I think you read Persuasion book, I can see those guitars 👍
Do i charge a monthly fee after the website is built? I think its important to build a residual income otherwise we are gonna be chasing clients all the time to stay ahead.
Love the video btw. Im also a uk lad 🇬🇧 near birmingham
Lots of different ways to do it. Set up one time fee, recurring, combination of setup + recurring
Great Value!

@@TheSamuelDarby Thanks now I am going to do paternship with a UI / UX designer. And I will see if it works or not.
Hi
Pls can you tell me how you got access to the owner?
Call the number on google?
You are baiting with free but then you wipl go with amount after...would it be good?
just a quick quesiton how do you bypass gate keepers?
Usually when starting aim for mobile numbers
Absolutely love this! ♥♥ Out of curiosity, are you calling their mobiles or business numbers? I've set up and agency and about to start cold calling - was wondering I'll get in trouble for calling mobiles from a data protection point of view
Mobiles, they are publically available via google profiles so nothing illegal
You’re getting resistance when you present a valuable thing for free from absolutely nowhere. You’re much better off offering less value or charging a small amount to get customer buy in
I like this strategy and I think it’s a great idea!
2 minutes into the video and I thought that first call was great, it’s just that the guy already had a website
Where to get clients who don't have a web? Google map?
Unbelieavable how many people say no to free stuff, I wonder why. What do you do if you cold call for a company that doesn't have any good offers lol.
Make a good offer haha
Could you show us the free website you sent them out?
hey i wanna know that does you first make a design and put there content or logo and secondly what if they accept free design then what you will get
after proving free design then how to convert them to clinet
as a professional cold caller I can tell you have some practice, i have mostly the same tonality that comes from thousand of calls, your delivery is a bit sub optimal though, you sound too much like a salesman at time, should be more friendly/familiar and focus on questiology, but you are pretty decent.

i have same question did you got any clue
obv we'll push the hosting on our platform which will be a monthly/annually payment
@@sinatraforeign can you plz elaborate what do you mean by our platform and what if client only keeps free design.
@@Asadullahabbasi-mi6cq Don't bother with option B and C if you don't have at least 5 clients. easier if you just gave them for free instead.
When leads leave their phone number on snapi website, what’s the script then?! What do you ask them on mobile, how do you then plan zoom call?
We’ll be doing follow up sales calls and they will be posted on this channel and the full recordings inside the skool group.
Legend
This might be weird but do you cold call when you are sick
Heyy. Cool video.. each time I called they don't schedule the call. They rather say I should send the free website to them on Whatsapp. So how do I noe get them to book the call after sending them the free website on Whatsapp
Sales skills! They getting a good deal, to get it they need to hop on a call :)
I was thinking he was speaking english in a little weird manner now that I have read united kingdom now I know why
Why most cold call videos are from the UK?!!!!!!!!!!
That’s where I’m from, I will do US ones in the future!
Hey man. Not really sure about this approach. Seems abit like your begging for the deal.. you say questions like its free... free value would be like giving a lead..
can you host the websites on Figma also or use external hosting platform??
Wordpress!
So… you spend the time designing a free site, but they haven’t committed to anything yet?
Are you using templates to make the design phase faster? If not, seems like a lot of wasted time…
Also, wouldn’t the client be better served if you asks what they think could be improved about their site?
He doesnt do it until he gets a client booked and also only uses a template that takes 2m
where do you get numbers?
Google
luxury lawn it is
How does he monetize from free to paid?
Hosting the website for monthly recurring so it's win win situation at all
Dude u literally copy pasted the title of Pavlo
are you using the GHL website templates ? Is Figma part of GHL ? see I am a newbie :)
What is shocking to me is that not one company answered with their company name. Very unprofessional

totally agree. Starting with free then having to convince them to pay for it is backwards. Find the pain inside their business and then solve it
why do you say its free?
Design is free, he charge for the implementation.
@ankitkushpoul4765 but he did he can keep it
@ankitkushpoul4765 what does that even mean? Design is free
He says free because building a website is a one time thing and he offers that as free and charges for maintenance and hosting.
Nice try Diddy
@TheSamuelDarby
Which tool do you use for cold calling.
I am looking for a Software like Skype which has reasonable rates for calling
The only reason I am unable to use it because I am from India and Skype doesn't offer local numbers of any specific country in India.
Great Value!
Hi Samuel, I have some collaboration ideas and suggestions to share with you. What's the best way to contact you directly? Please let me know!
