Thanks for haing me on the show, Wes! Hope your viewers are able to find something helpful from this.
Thanks again for sharing your insights, Apple! I enjoyed chatting with you!
If my client wants something outside of the package then I refer them to my Add-on list and they can pick any additional items needed. Great content!
That's the way to do it Zane... Scope-creep is real!
You are easily one of the most helpful and practical content creators I’ve found. I want to be you when I grow up!
Always abundantly clear ideas, concepts and strategies. Great job on your pacing and choice of words. Simple yet useful
This was a great video! In all my corporate UI Design roles I've advocated for a similar template system to offer customers a few packed solutions that can be built quickly.
I have a few questions you might have answered in other videos.
1. How do you define and build an audience?
2. How do you get traffic to your website?
3. How do you advertise your business?
4. How do you communicate with clients?
5. What service are you using to process payments?
6. What software are you using to manage taxes?
7. How do you track clients, projects, and tasks?
8. What happens if a client wants their money back?
Wes, love the videos. Can you please add end cards to the video you are referring to? I have gone through a few videos of yours now and the end cards are missing so I cant easily click through and binge your videos
That must mean you’re watching on a tv? The end cards are there, it’s however you’re watching that won’t let you see them.
Exactly what I’m working on!
This is exactly how I’ve been running my business for years. It is absolutely the smoothest way to run and grow/scale a service business.
I agree Rob! It's how I did it too. I dont sell services anymore but it made all the difference when I switched over to this model.
Yes U fully agree, very good ideas here ! thanks from David in Sydney.
Thanks David!
Great video, as always. Do you also have a pricing subpage?
I would for sure.
Finally🎉 someone who just doesn't throw that trendy "Productized" term around without actually explaining what the heck it actually means ❤
ha thanks for appreciating :)
Hey Wes, are you still offering design services? I can't find any info on your website. I just see the trainning/course.
Hey David, no I no longer do that... just focusing on my content these days.
Wes what system do you use to manage your customers? I know about one productized service which uses Trello.
not sure what that is sorry
How do you accept large payments on your website? I have done a lot of research into it and it just seems that it isn't possible with something like stripe PayPal etc, yes theoretically you can but the money will almost always be held once you bring in a decent amount of money. Then you can do the route of setting up your own dedicated payment from a merchant service but in that case you need at least something like 200k in the bank to show them if you are going to be taking in a decent amount of money a month.
I found with Stripe as long as you notify support of any abnormally large payments you expect to come and what they are for, they don’t hold it in suspicion.
i refer to this as "good,better,best"
Should I list the packages right on my website? Or do I reveal those to potential clients only? And what about prices for my packages and services? Do I list those on my website? Thank you 😊
I always recommend being super upfront with prices! Here's another video all about that if it helps :) ua-cam.com/video/0c1Pu4Lc08M/v-deo.html
@@WesMcDowellInc thank you! I'll watch it :)
So if I take payments for projects directly on my site, what happens (should I be lucky enough to have this problem) when too many clients book a project at once? If they pre-pay, aren't they expecting the turnaround time to start when they pay? How does one manage that?
yea if you go tinto that situation, or even jsut if you wanted to be able to choose who you wanna work with, youd want to just do a consult first, rather than a direct purchase.
i dont want low stress.... I WANT PROBLEMS! ALWAYS!
Well then I guess watch this video for... what NOT to do?
😂😂😂 you want drama 😂😂😂
"I want problems! Always!" is a meme...a little known but funny one.
@@sowhappyyeah I know I have seen it a few times 😂😂😂 your comment did make me laugh 😂😂👍
So when and where is he showing the packages and pricing?
You'd ideally have a pricing page where you lay it all out
Is this something you did with your website design business?
Yep! It’s all detailed in the video
1 hr of podcast editing doesn't depend on the content. A website can have videos, custom graphics, varying levels of complexity and interactivity, and content that needs to go through several revisions - that isn't as easy to bucketize. I don't think one short video is enough to cover this for service-based businesses
It’s not a complete course, you’re right. Just introducing the idea.
@@WesMcDowellInc I don't think this idea works for websites or app development or building houses the way Apple applied it to his business
@@TaskSwitcherify Website package 1, $2000: You get a homepage with up to 5 blocks (banner, services, social proof, etc), a services page with up to X sections, an about page with X number of sections. If you need me to find your imagery, that's another $500. Additional pages cost x. Its extremely do-able.
This is why the entire internet all looks the same. Why meet the clients unique needs when you can shoehorn them into an ineffective template.
Because if you know your clients you should know what they need (and can really benefit from) more than they do!
I see what you are saying, however, I do feel like a lot of the “standard” layout options on the web are standard not because they are effective, but because they are options in available page builders. I prefer a custom design from beginning to end where you can really present information in a unique way that coordinates with the branding and dial in the user experience. That takes more time, thought and of course costs a lot more than 10K, but I think it is worth it. In my experience, engagement is so much higher on a site that was designed specifically for the content and not the other way around. I guess it depends who your target customers are.
So you don’t think it’s possible to produce amazing websites using a builder?? Only pure coding can do awesomeness?? Gotta move with the times. Framer is a totally no code website builder and the things that it can do are mind blowing and with all the right client info and content, can be done in 7 hours. Totally unique, like no other website out there. I know which I would rather use😂😂 . I use to only ever build using code but these new tools are lower the barrier to entry and people are getting faster. My clients want their money making websites today, not in days, weeks, months, framer builder all day for me.
As someone who has worked in design for 20 years, I can tell you most clients want a lot of the same things. However, offering packaged offerings does not mean all projects will look the same. You change fonts and colors per brand, you pick imagery accordingly, tweak layout accordingly... What you're selling is a pre-built structure, not a pre-designed work. If I sell a 10 page ebook package to a financial client and a 10 page ebook to a flashy e-commerce brand, those two ebooks will not look anything alike.
Exactly! I think a lot of ppl misunderstand what it means to productize a service.
This is like wedding photographer packages. "productivized" is a new word for the same old thing, nice try youngsters
Less can definitely be more...
Agreed :)
He was so successful that he started a UA-cam channel.
Are you saying starting a YT channel is something ppl do when they're failing? Not sure your math checks out there ;)
I don't see the packages in his website creatorsagency, it looks he's helping creators close brand deals. 😅
