- I hate to break it to you, but if you're offering free trials for your Social Media Marketing Agency - you're playing yourself.

Dude, this is EXACTLY what Joe Soto teaches. I had been stuck in the paralysis of thinking I didn’t know enough and not getting clients because of it. I’m outsourcing now. Thanks homie!
but he told something different in his outsource video!!
@@vimalcurio yeah he had a different perspective back then.
@@collinruiten4944 so we can have clients without any experience in Facebook ads
@@vimalcurio correct
@@collinruiten4944 cool now I'm gonna crush it then
Business Owner Mindset over The Worker Mindset. HUGE Level of difference. Don't create another job for yourself - Create a system and hire the justice league.
Justice League, I like that
I hate free trials, such a waste of time and resources.
Would rather spend that time prospecting for leads who are willing to pay.
never thought about it this way, thank you, u changed my perspective completely
Iman is totally right. What you should do instead is settle and offer a free consultation if the client doesn't wanna take the next step. So you both could literally agree to do 1 hour sessions once a week and you do some free consulting. This in turn will have the marketing manager of the company more than likely start THROWING other companies in that same niche at you! Not to mention that at the end of the whole consulting gig you can ask for a testimonial and trust me, they will give you one.
Edweezi fr?
Agreed, I had two free trials and they both sucked and didn't close. Then I ditched it, and had 3 strategy sessions and closed all 3 for 2,000 a month each
Well damn what are some tips for a good strategy session
Hey Chris! I’d really appreciate if you discuss strategy sessions more!!
So true! The clients paying less is always a pain in the ass compared to the high ticket ones. I found out the hard way 😅 Even my dad said that the same was true in his business as a lawyer. So always go for the high ticket clients 😀
Yep, sets a bad tone for a 1 to 1 relationship - Immediately sets a bad tone.
i totally agree with Iman.. i think its the same thing as a business owner going for the more expensive agency because they feel like they working with a professional .. unlike free trails where they are not sure weather their brand is in good hands or not
Yeah, I've tried free trials and it really didn't work for me, they get all surprised when you say the free trial has ended and now you're going to charge them. I honestly hate free trials.
I wondered why your voice was so high, they I realised I had it on speed of 1.5 lol! Obviously you don't watch Iman Ghadzhi on x1.5 so fixed that with quickness! 😉
lol
I think trails should be public. Why should you have to pay to use them?
ChaosBelow 😂😂😂
Ahhh this video cleared it up a lot. Thank you for this!
Love it man! So much value 🚨🚨🚨
Iman I was so shocked when I saw your course was only 1000$!!!
I have offered free trials before and literally after the free trail, you get no response what so ever. it sucks and most of time it usually goes over the days of the free trial because the lack of communication, but now I am doing well.
Hey, can you share your strategy how you overcame when free trials were not worked?
Hey, your insight is really intresting. can we connect if you are still in the same industry.
2023 and this video still helping people! Crazy
I ride my bike on free trails all the time.. whats wrong with that?
Thank you Iman. I needed that exact video at this exact moment. It's so on point
Hey do you have an agency?
What do you mean use contractors ?? Like get a paid client for 2k per month then pay an Ads professional $1,000 a month to do it all for you and bring results ?
yup
Yes that’s right
Love what you’re doing bro , keep educating us 🙏🏾
That free trial 'FUCK NO" got it so clear to me 😂
Yeah, it makes no sense to work for free. People don't value free work. Also, you wouldn't do a free trial for your boss, even if you were a new employee in a new industry. So why should you do a free trial just because you are new at social media marketing?
I just bought a SMMA course that is telling me to do free trails. After watching this video, I want to get my money back. What should I do?
Great piece!!
I think free trials are good for people with no previous work experience to prove themselves, but if you already had results just show them the numbers
No
@@MattGarcyaDC haha you will get no sales, we all start somewhere thats why freelancers take cheap jobs to get that five star in the beginning
@@CharzMoritz Im talking about agency owners. But for you I guess we are talking about freelancers now so sure maybe free trials are good for you
Bruh he literally debunked what you just said
@@confidoplaysfx exactly
You don't need to do a free trial for a month and spend thousands of dollars. Just do a free week trial, develop their ad and landing page and spend about $100 for the week. It's as simple as that. You are doing this for a testimonial, to get someone results that you can market. When starting an agency, this should be your very first step. These days, if you don't have any prior experience or results to show someone, no way they will trust you.
I saw this video last year. I cam back to it again because one of my prospects is currently annoying me and my contractor to the bone😂I am legit laughing my ass of at how accurate this video is.
The worst part is that this prospect is trying to find out how to reverse engineer his competitors ads from us instead of letting us do it for him. LMAO
Howsit Iman. Good video, this is definitely my argument as well - having said that I have taken on a client in South Africa for a retainer, and Im giving its sister company in Ireland 1 month free trial (they asked for 3. wtf!). I have been thinking lately of outsourcing, however, the prospects Ive been meeting with look at me astonished when I say R7000 per month (like 500usd)... as if Im too expensive! So the question is, how do I find clients willing to pay $1000 and more for a service? I'll only outsource if I can sign up bigger retainers. Thanks Iman (or anyone wanting to answer).
I don't recommend free trials. I brought my first client in on a 14 day trial. Got amazing results, after the two weeks she then said she didn't have the money and her business was getting sued so she had to cancel. Haha
Loool I j seen a ad saying everthing u were saying not to do 30 day trail social media content creation
Wow this was BIG stuff for me Iman. Thank you! Wtf...
Iman, great video! I have only one question, really hope you answer. Do you have any suggestions on finding a ''contractor'', as I do not know where exactly to start? And do you think working with someone online will help as much?
philipine fb job wanted group, network, upwork - might have to train them
Yes, but how/where do you find FB ads contractors?
Upwwork
Fiverr
Linkedin
@@michaelngac1432 what about Facebook?
@@vimalcurio You can use Facebook Groups as well. Good group you can join is Ad Buyers Job Board
@@michaelngac1432 okay thanx brotha
@@michaelngac1432 can I have your instagram brotha? 😊
How do you go about setting up meeting with businesses that are in a different area from you? Like, far cities, different state ext...? I have been cold calling businesses from different cities, and I have been wondering how I would set up a meeting and actually be able to close them through the phone or video call. I'm not sure how i can successfully have a good meeting with a client far away.
@6ixoul Will this also work if I stay in another country
Skype or zoom call it saves them time and you because hop on the call then finish call and that’s it if you had to physically be in the office it takes longer so that’s why do skype call or zoom call
Hey man, I love your content. Also I'm thinking on enrolling your six fig smmma course. I'm from Vietnam, do you think what your course have can apply to my country? And also, should I build personal brand first? Please reply man, I really wanted to learn from you, but if it can't apply to where I live, I'll be in trouble. 1000$ is a lot of money, it took me a year and a half to save it.
Thank you
I think you can apply it to where u live but not sure you can charge as high as Agencies in The US because your country's GDP or standard of living is different but what I want to know is if I can also do this from my country(Nigeria) and target US,UK and Candian clients instead of Nigerian clients.
A.C Martin Xavier bro what’s your socials? I am Nigerian too and I want to enter smma
Steve Dutta yes
Hey slam are you still currently doing SMMA? If you are, I would love to connect for a coffee, I am currently living in Vietnam
I'm interested where did you find your contractor? Because i'm searching for one but it's hard to find people which really know what they are doing and can bring the results!
Upwork
Trials* when I first clicked on I was like wtf is a trail? 😆
One point that i wanted to ask, you said your fb ads coach didnt help you
why is that so?
Guess I played myself 😂
How'd that work out for you?

Where is this contractor source you speak of I see no links....
up work, fiverr, go into Facebook ad groups im sure you can find people with case studies willing to work for you
Love your videos mate but this is one area I diaagree
Gary V love him or don't love him always talks about free work. That's how D Rock got his job with Gary V. He literally said I'll work for you for free and Gary V loved his hustle and now D Rock is his main man by the camera.
I've also worked with many other businesses that offer free services and products and because of this gain hundreds of new clients.
Do you recommend run the '90 days program' when we start??
What about Hormozi's new video
Congratulations. You played yourself.
What do you mean?
Yea but what if you don't have clients yet?
Nvm I watched the video now haha
man i wish i had a good facebook ads contractor, where do you guys find yours???
I agree with this
What the background song?
Matt Garcya need to know that as well lol
Your a God 🙏
Trials*
It could be used to build trust
Iman do you offer facebook ads training? if so I would like to pay for them to be able to learn
if you wanna learn fb ads go for Dan henry or Billy wilson theyre teaching fb ads.
So then what do you offer If you have no content?
authority highjack ex." im just getting started but my mentor iman in London who owns a 7 figure agency has walked me through how he is helping business' do x by doing x in x niche and have been looking for an business around here to help me test this strategy out" or just completely bullshit it and steal someone else' case study
@@bmxtrev32 So ultimately lie to the Potential Client? Have you used this to get any clients starting out?
Ike O it’s not lying if he actually did learn from Iman if he bought the course
exactly if iman or who every you choose to learn from, taught you the exact ad, copy, targeting and the funnel its at very good odds that you can replicate the same numbers@@MattGarcyaDC
Lol just put strongly instead
what is the best way to find a good contractor?
I am the sorriest salesperson I know because I find that I need to "turn the salesperson mode off" around the people I love and when I sleep at night. This business seems to require alot of shtick, sales gimmicks and PUA style skills.
@Free trials :)
Has anyone done Imans smma course?
U shouldn't learn your craft to a degree before u hire someone so u can fact check them and make sure there not bullshit
where do you guys find your facebook ads contractors??
wuz beast Upwork
trials* bro
Trials** haha fix the title
You claim to try not to be like everyone else but you don't interact or comment on youtube. smh
It can get quite busy :)
