Wanted to share this with you guys because this one message made me $10,000 almost immediately.
Making money as a creative really comes down to this one thing: knowing how to sell yourself.
If you read through the message, you can see how I painted the picture for him by bringing up past successes and also pushing away by saying "take some time to think about it"
He originally wanted to spend less than $5,000 - so how did I get him to double that?
By increasing the perceived value. I painted the BIG picture for him. And because of that, the value in his head went up.
Not to mention, after seeing the result of the work, he offered me a $12,000/month contract that I ended up not taking because I had some other things going on. So if you really think about it, that message was worth $144,000/year + the initial $10,000.
This is not the first time I've done this. I've seen this work over and over and over again.
Anyways, this is a message that you guys can use. Take it as a template and put your own twist on it.
And if you have any questions, I'm always here to help. Ask away!
