I'm an old man that nobody hires, I was looking into web freelancing but was about to give up, but your guide looks promising. Thanks.
you're only as old as you think, young man!

I love the fact that you addressed that it doesn’t need to be perfect in the beginning. This os something I struggled with so long and that was holding me back for so long.
Yeh I STILL struggle with this everyday but we’ll get there!
I learned that from the book "Finish" by Jon Acuff

really?@@theannahickman
This is by far the most honest and helpful person in the domain 💯💯
I've been running a small team of creatives as a media & marketing company for 7 years. THIS VIDEO has more value than anything or anyone I've spoken to (lot's and lot's of people) in those years!
I have been shifting the business over the past 6 months and have been pulling together some of these parts but haven't release the new branding and funnel to anyone as I keep getting stuck thinking about having it all before launching. One thing that has been hard has been how different the business model seemed to other businesses, so the conversations always seemed to point away from our offerings.
Today LUA MEDIA is coming alive and I will iterate the remaining changes throughout 2024! Thank you...
euphoric. how can you call this video good^^ greetings from someone who knows c++.
This is wild to see you set a goal for 10,000 but to see you at 20.5K. I found your videos like 2 weeks ago and it's inspired my husband and I to expand our web design business. Thank you so much for all of this information! When we first started last year I was so lost on what to do and just decided to start and now I find your videos at the perfect time to expand what we are doing after getting a few clients done. Truly a huge help to us!
EVERYBODY ELSE has pretty much already said,... but I'll say it again -- VERY WELL DONE, great detail, and presented with just enough detail to remain on point on not overwhelm us in the process. Thanks for sharing your time and talent.
Thank you - always try to keep to the point but worry about leaving out too many details so really appreciate that 🙏🏻
I was not even 2 minutes down the the video, And your honesty in saying " I will put everything out without holding back any information" Made me subscribe your channel right away trust me.
Your offer should depend on how much the average order the client is charging their customer! What an absolute nugget. I just did a website for a tech company who’s brining in multi million clients. Now I feel like I charged way less 😅
Haha definitely been there! Now you know what to do next time ;)
😍😍 I am a fullstack web developer for 15 years . Working at a startup . Not my startup . I have few clients only for freelance . Mainly because my personal freelance website in wordpress is not having enough content . I will follow this video and implement steps 😍😍
teach me how to program, im doing frontend for now, got discord?
@@S_U_M_E_Rwould you like to learn webflow ?
@@breadman3736 sure
I'm a react developer and I do backend with php & laravel now learning node js for backend would you please let me know how to get client's or start freelancing?

Amazing - I’m in the middle of launching my web design business and this is exactly what I need! 😊
Yesss love that - send me a message when you launch id love to check it out!
The tech industry is a bloodbath of mass layoffs, outsourcing, and AI replacements.
The auto repair industry, on the other hand, is the polar opposite. Even if you're a service writer and not a mechanic, you're guaranteed to have an endless supply of work and a secure job, and the work comes to you.
My plan for this year is to get myself in a better position to do web development as my main source of income (at the moment it's very much an "on the side for people i know" kind of thing) and this looks very helpful. Looking forward to seeing the rest.
Thank you for the time and effort you spent on doing this.
its not helpful and hes just fantasizing stuff and lying on cam. stop watching such videos.

TRANSPARENCY, I LOVE IT.
You're awesome. Right now, you have 5.93K subscribers and I can't wait to see the first 100K.
You are so generous with your knowledge and you make it so simple and doable.
Big like and support for you and I can't wait to see your success with this channel.
THANK YOU
Amazing video, coming just in time for me! Thank you so much 🫡 I did a project where my friend and I did everything. We made the brand visual identity (logo, color palette, fonts, graphics), signage, cards, menus, social media content, AND website. All for 7k! Niching down now towards just websites and a particular audience so this video really came just in time. Need the rest of the videos ASAP!! 🙏🏼
Oh wow! Yeh it’s definitely a LOT to do everything - hopefully with the new focus you’ll see even bigger growth. Let’s gooo
I love the insights at the beginning of the video; the note regarding the ease of selling what you know (vs marketing products) really hit home for me. I suspect the rest of the video will be just as satisfying, but I couldn't help but say a preliminary thank you!
Thank you! This is exactly what I needed. Please don't stop growing your UA-cam channel!
People like you are just wonderful. I bought your web design templates a few months ago and they more than worth the price. I'm happy to be a witness to your successful journey. Keep it up!
Thats so kind thank you so much!
Excited to watch the growth of your channel as this series is released! Incredible work, amazing value for viewers!
Anna, your content and attitude are life changing.
It helped me gain so much more confidence as a new freelancer, spot gaps in my knowledge and begin to create a process that helps both me and my clients. You've saved me months if not years of my life - thank you.
I rarely comment on stuff but this is 100 percent what I was looking for. If you out there reading take notes
So awesome to see you here on UA-cam!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 can’t wait to see it take off 🚀🚀🚀🚀
Finally someone not trying to sell me a course. 100% subscribed. Great video!
Anna, you are so generous with your knowledge. Thank you.
Thank YOU ❤️
Thank you so much Anna, this is so helpful and to the point, I am always struggling with my niche and this is my issue which makes my journey hard. Can't wait for your next video. 🙂
Don’t overthink it just lean into the things your good at/enjoy and it will happen over time!
This is the series I've been waiting for.
I love how simple you make this
Oh good! I always worry that it makes sense to me but no one else haha
@@theannahickman noooo!! one of the reasons that I love your content is that it’s easy to digest, it’s real and usually actionable steps to take. A lot of other people say a lot without saying anything or say so much that you don’t understand so you walk away feeling like you aren’t knowledgeable enough to take on that task
As someone starting out in design and dev, this was truly an awesome find. So subscribing, thank you!
Anna,
I just watched your incredible UA-cam video on the web design course - huge appreciation for your efforts and detailed insights! Your dedication is truly commendable.
Excited and hopeful that 2024 is my year for growth. Quick question: You mentioned using Framer in the course, which is awesome! Will you also be covering SEO aspects within the Framer tool?
Looking forward to diving into the course! 🚀
Thanks a bunch! I'm seriously impressed with how you packed so much important info into just the right amount of time. Eagerly awaiting the next video!
Thanks for watching!
Really amazing to see your content. As a web designer and dveloper I have also a plan to create an agency. Getting related clients and managing them is one of the most important things in this sector. Hope you will make more videos in Getting and Managing clients... Thanks
One of the best videos I’ve watched. Hoping to start a business this year, thank you.
Very humble person 🙏 your transparency is a breath of fresh air in this industry
It's obvious right from the start when someone is giving you an submission.
Anna, thank you for sharing with me your million dollar strategies for free 🎉🎉.
Congrats for your new mark!! 10 thousands!!
Thank you!!
This is the best guide yet. Thank you so much!
i love your openness and communication style, and thanks so much for making these, I think its exactly what I needed!
Just loved it. Pure knowledge and No hyped up attitudes and animations. I feel like learning from a younger brother ❤.
Love the transparency ❤
You the real MVP Anna! Thanks for this
This is really good! Thank you Anna!
My pleasure glad you enjoyed!
You just nailed it! The right words, the right examples and the right attitude. Thanks, you have done so much good.
This is amazing content, the best I have seen so far. Had to comment, this is what I needed to start my business. Thank you so much.
This is seriously good. I'm going to implement everything I've learned from this video. You're awesome. Thanks for making this video.
Great one, I really love your content. I hoping to going all in into web design this year and this video will help. Thanks
Hi Anna,
Just now discovering your content.
Just want to say a huge thank you for this value.
All the very best to you,
Grant.
Thank you Anna, for your efforts. Keep going.👍
You communicate your thoughts so well! Love these guides!
Thank you Anna. I’ll try this process immediatly
At the moment i've been struggling between building a pod business or looking at freelancing work atm noting having a job so been very difficult to make a choice given having no income coming in every month bills wise i,m fine for a while its just trying to pick something thats not going to cost a lot every month to top up anyway amazing video you've made me think.
Thank you for your effort! This is amazing and very helpful!
Hi Anna - nice video... do you include SEO / Adwords management in your plans/pricing? Just wondering how you package things up - do you have a website I can see? Thanks!
Hey! I don’t but purely because I don’t like doing ongoing SEO it’s really not my specialty. I include basic on page SEO and set up in my website builds but after that refer to someone else for ongoing maintenance. Hope that helps!
@@theannahickman thanks for that much appreciated 👍
I have a question!
I have a client lined up and we are signing contract on Monday, but I wanted to know what I should do about the tools I use like elementor I can use one my licenses but do I pay for the clients renewal every year for ever lol, or do I purchase 1 single license for 1 year and then get the customer migrated over to take the reoccurring payments every year? Thank you!
For any recurring subscription like this I would always just get my client set-up on their own plan from the start. Unless you have already agreed to ongoing monthly website maintenance with this client in which case you can keep them on your subscription as long as they are paying you monthly maintenance fees (not something I offer, but you can do this)
Thank you so much for the input!@@theannahickman
Thank you, Anna🔥
Thank you so so much for these videos like this is golden information! ✨✨
Awesome video ❤
Thanks for watching ☺️
THIS IS LITRLAL GOLD
I have a question about the niche topic, I am happy about every opinion I can get. So you said find a niche and be an expert in it, which makes totally sense. I like to design the overall corporate identity of companies and especially webdesign. But for a good webdesign there is a need for a styleguide/branding guideline. So I approached it this way. I put the webpart into the center and tell i offer everything about the web, which means: branding (build color palette to build web on, logo which can be used on the website), Image/Photo Editing for creating images for the web, Videos, which can be used in the hero section and even 3D-Models, which can be build into websites (3d-models are kind of our hobbyhorse).
What do you think about this approach? Is it to broad? Does it not appear professional (mentioning your sushi example)?
I also want to add, that sometimes for companies it is convenient to get everything out of one hand, meaning they dont need to find a photographer, the dont need to find an animator for the video on the hero section, they get everything out of one hand, which is a selling point. Isn't that the purpose of an agency in some way?
I'm curious about your opinions and would be happy to read some.
idk why but this video is so easy to understand & digest. thank you.
I will be more than happy to apply these tips! As of now i am selling Video Editing services, but open to this idea! Thanks
I’m interested in starting a video editing business too, tips?
@@thegreatestyoutubeuser Tip 1: IF YOU DONT HAVE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT HOW EDITING WORKS - YOU NEED TO DO SOME RESEARCH HOW THE PROCESS OF EDITING GOES THEN COMES TO THE PRICING PART - REASEARCH THE MARKET BY DIGGING INTO SOME TOP 5 FREELANCING PLATFORMS: FIVERR, UPWORK, FREELANCER, ETC. SEE HOW THE PRICING OF VIDEOS ARE BEING CHARGED AND FOR WHAT QUALITY OF VIDEO. TIP 2: BUILD A PORTFOLIO OF YOUR WORKS LIKE WHICH YOU ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE EDITING STYLE, SOME EDITORS FOCUSES ONLY ON DOCUMENTARIES, WHILE SOME FOCUSES ON SOCIAL MEDIA VIDEOS, Pixar style animation, etc. Tip 3: CREATE SYSTEMS - client's onboarding process, what will be your primary and secondary payment methods, FAQs, testimonials, your previous work experience, TIP 4: Marketing: THE SIMPLEST BUT NOT EASY PART - Create OMNICHANNEL MARKETING STRATGEY, DONT JUST RELY ON ONE SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM BUT HAVE OMNI PRESENCE - CREATE ATLEAST 6 VIDEOS SHOWING WHAT YOU DO - IF YOUR WORK IS GREAT YOU WILL HAVE YOUR CLIENTS IN FIRST 7 DAYS. Tip5: if you have big competitors - dont fight you will end up in decreasing your profits - instead collaborate with them.
there's hell loit of things - this comment section is too small to discuss.
Great video thanks for sharing. I’m doing a bit of website design on the side of my full time job at the moment🙌🏼
Hi Anna,
Well done and Thank you so much for the great guidance. I am trying to start my web design business. However, I do not use any no-code solutions. Do I have to learn any? Do clients, sometimes dictate the technologies I am supposed to use?
Also, the local market for web-dev services is not wide here. What is your advice on how I can land clients in other places or even countries?
Anna baby you’re so smart 😍😍😍
Haha thanks for the ego boost
@@theannahickman Omg you replied ...🥰🥰🥰
01:55 This is such an underated GEM
Great video Anne, I found the information you provided in it very useful and something that I should definitely try out, it truly got my attention.
Amazing video Anna!!
Hey Anna! :) I loved your sincerity and charming way to help people like me! :) I send you a virtuall friendly hug från Sweden. :)
Tack så mycket!! Hej från Canada 😉
@@theannahickman Åh, vad kul du skriver på svenska! :) kram till dig vännen! :) Om du vill hålla på kontakt bara säg till, för det skulle vara fantastisk om vi kan fortsätter prata/ skriva varandra? :) Virtuell kram!
You're the realest! Thank you for the information.
Brilliant. Wish I had met your 4 years ago. Quite amazing.
so insightful, even for someone who's been doing this for the last year !
Jammed packed with info 💥🔥
Really wish I found you before splurging on a Becca Luna class. Awesome work.
Damn, if this does not make you viral I'm going to scream at the virality gods and demand justice. Joke aside, this is incredibly well done. Thanks so much 🙌🏼
Every success with your channel, content here is superb. TY 🙌
Loved your course, tysm 🙏
you are just awesome.... Keep rocking 😉
Why does one have to use a platform (wix, WP, Shopify, etc), as you suggested? I am a software engineer by profession, would it be problematic if used the reactjs framework as my go-to tool for building websites? Would there bre any benefits for me if I went with one of the platforms you suggested?
Thanks :) !
It depends on who your clients are and what their needs are - a lot of clients like to be able to manage their own websites. You don't HAVE to use a platform but if they fit your clients needs better and help to speed up your workflow then that would be the main benefit.
The main takeaway is to just stick to one way of doing things so you can streamline your workflow and become the go-to expert in that one thing. Instead of hopping around platforms or trying to offer everything to everyone. So if reactjs works for you and your clients, just stick to that!
@@theannahickman I appreciate that, thank you!
I can't seem to find the template to create offer, can you kindly share the link ?
Thank you for the lessons in the video
Hi, can you post a video on the technical aspect like creating a website.
Thank you Anna
Anna you did amazing on this video. Do you do zooms ?
Love love love this thank you!! But I’m so curious, how come you have a poster that says Göteborg behand you?! /a Swede🙃
Thanks, Anna! Looking forward to the next video, and thanks for the FREE templates!
Damn!!! Phenomenal content 👌🤯
subscribed you legend!
Amazing, I learnt so much from this video. Definitely going to implement these!
Miss Anna , i have a question . What about AI ? AI is like making really gigantic leaps and is automating everything. So what will happen after 5 years ? Won't the web development business die down? Genuine question.
What do you think about outsourcing everything to freelancers?
Its what im doing . I haven’t got a clue in how to do any sort of design. Just star your agency vet a few serious free lancers and then employ them cut them a deal/% per job. Your job is managing marketing getting clients and cutting deals.
@@Libaax00 you ever hear of go high level?
That's awesome Anna ❤, thanks a lot
