The truth is that 9 of the 10 groups in FB looks like spam folder. Everybody just posted self promotion and nobody care about other posts. I think it doesn’t have much sense to post on there. I tried a few times - no likes, no comments, no messages.
I completely agree, most of it’s spam and I’m not getting any interest so idk what to do
Great video as always Pat, thank you
Thanks so much!!
Let me know if you give it a try!
Ton of value Patrick🔥
Really appreciate that Charlie!!
I really appreciate all of the value shared here and on Discord!
Thanks so much Sergio!
Hope it gave you some ideas 😃
great advice! Will try
How I could help :)
Let me know how it goes!!
the value in this video is insane! all that's left for me is to take action.
Really appreciate it Jay. Haha the action part is always the hard bit, but the most important.
Let me know how it goes!!
He said "then why are you here looking for ways to find new clients" - Homie did a 4th wall Jedi mind trick through the phone 😂
😂😂 I just had a feeling
The algorithm recommended, I wasn't meant to be here 😂
😂😂😂😂😂 to funny 😆
Great video! Thank you
Glad you liked it!!
Great man!
Thanks Adrien!!
Thank you so much for this video😃
Glad it helped!!
Thanks for this man❤💯
Hope it gave you some ideas :)
Great to have you buddy
Have me where 😁😆?
Awesome video as always, I will try this method starting monday, and will update if something happens!
Thanks a lot Steven.
And yes definitely let us know how it goes 😃!
?
How did it go?
@@NigelHeaton , it went too good, now he is on mars, selling to aliens
Hi Patrick, I just finished your video. I have posted on a few sites. Thank you for your help!
Hi Kristy,
Awesome!
Hope it goes well and keep me updated :)
How is going the situation bro?
Hi patrick, this is very good thing for me im going to start next week.
Hey Yousef, awesome!! Join the discord if you have any questions :)
Woah! I've been trying to market in facebook groups without much success, but I think I've been going about it completely wrong.. I'm going to try this way :) Thank you!
Haha glad I was able to give some new perspective Angus!
Let us know how it goes!!
@@patrickspiegel So far - I made a site mockup for my niche in figma to show what I could produce and started posting in the way you suggested. At the moment the mods seem to instantly ban my posts in the first few groups I posted in.. I'll be persistent with it though, and tailor the message a bit
@AngusGaukrogerDev unfortunate that can happen sometimes
Like you said, try different groups, be persistent!
Maybe even message the admins personally and start a conversation.
Then you can ask if it’s ok to post this for some feedback!
Great video. I have been building WordPress websites since 2011, but it has always been my side gig. I do need more clients; I want to replace my current job and focus on building web sites.
Awesome!!
Let us know how the pursuit goes!
It's a trick to attract people. Liked this strategy 🙂
Glad you found it useful!
Let me know if you try it out :)
Hey man great video bro. I'm new to this Web design agency thing, I'd like to ask however is it more favorable to have a select niche in web design or can I get away with general
Great question!!
I think both are great.
When you're starting out, you can be a generalist and go to networking events, or local business meetups and therefore get any client in person.
But if you want to systemise your business and scale I personally would recommend niching down.
This doesn't have to be an industry although that can really help!!
Hey Patrick, I hope you're doing awesome brother, So I was actually going to try this strategy to find clients, although I wonder do I have to create a normal or business fb profile to target people in my niche!
Great question!
I personally like doing it with my personal account as people like talking to people.
And if you have a business account with 10 likes people will see it more as spam.
But that is only my option :)
Hope that helps
@@patrickspiegel Okay thanks patrick, and like is it important to create a business page for your services in your personal account?
In my opinion not. Some people use their business page and some use their personal page :)
But they of course need to look professional @@khanabdulrehman26
@@patrickspiegel sounds fair Patrick, thanks a lot brother
Pleasure :)
Would love a video about advertising on Facebook using ads and how to properly target and get the best response
Definitely interesting. I personally haven't used ads just yet but will be looking into it in the near future!
Do you have a professional website for your agency or for port? I couldn’t find it here or IG.
Hey patrick, what image should we share when we are posting in the group? Like just a hero section, or whole homepage?
Doesn’t matter
Both work 👍
Good way to be labeled as a spamer... This rarely or never works, people are there to network, get referals, or new jobs from other people working in the same area, they are not there to be pitched a website, if they wanted one they would look for it elsewhere not in a group. Not to mention mods will insta ban you for spam
I've posted in countless group (1 or 2 times per group), got kicked maybe twice, and had many people message me after posting (As i wasnt spamming nor promoting directly) Plus I've gotten calls and clients from it.
Will there be times that you'll be unlucky --> Absolutely, but if you play it safe and post in a respectful manner, then the upside is greater than the downside :)
It's not spamming, it's outreach. Even large companies do outreach of some sort. If you were to consider this method as a spamming activity, it would be like saying that ads are spam too... There's nothing wrong about reaching out to people and telling them about how your value might benefit them.
My thoughts as well.
Would it better to only get inbound leads - 100%
But for most people outreach is the best way to get the first client
Even if you've never had any clients, you can create before-and-after examples by letting AI generate the website first and then redesigning it :)
Great idea!!!
Have you done that yourself?
@@patrickspiegelNot yet but as a beginner, I plan to try this approach
Awesome!
Have you done any other outreach strategies? @@paranthre
@@patrickspiegelSo far no. Only when I worked for SEO agency where I did cold-calling (people with very bad websites), but the outcomes were not as favorable as anticipated.
Oh ok!
What are you next steps or what are you currently struggling with in your business?
Let's give it a try and see!
Absolutely!!
Does it work?
@@vivekanandpandey735 worked for me 😁. Test it out!
Thanks for the method bro worked perfectly, I have a question :
I have an interested client for a web design in the dental niche but I don't have neither a personal portfolio or agency portfolio
what should I do to sign him up just like that or should I drive him to my Upwork profile however I don't have no experience and no reviews ?
Well I always recommend people to create 2-5 designs so a potential client can see your design skills etc.
Hey Patrick, would it be better to do the outreach on fb using your personal profile or create a business profile?
I think both work
I personally like the personal route as I still believe people buy from people
Hi Patrick, I'm curious if you uploaded the image of the entire site or just the main page. When I post the image of the whole website, it resizes and becomes blurry in the post. On the other hand, if I crop it, potential clients won't be able to see my entire website. I'm interested in how you handled this. Thank you in advance :)
There are a couple of things you can do.
Either upload a video (Square or Portrait) that shows you scrolling through the website. Or you can break the design into 2 sections and have it laid out next to each other on the design post. Or of course upload two photos where the design is broken up into 2 sections.
Let me know if that makes sense!
@@patrickspiegel Thank you! I already broke it up into 2 sections and put it like that, but the video one is not a bad idea, I will try it!
Your videos are really good Pat! I design landing pages and a question that has been bothering me is, can I close a client on the DMs if I'm not able to hop on a call, or should I find a VA?
It's very tricky and I personally always hop on calls.
Is there any reason you wouldn't want to have calls?
@@patrickspiegel Yea, my main reason is that I still live with my family and I really want to keep my business private...
Ah ok,
But cant you find some time to close the door to your room and tell them in case they hear you, that you're just practising with your friends?
@@patrickspiegel They'll want to know more and if I don't open up to them they'll start accusing me that I'm doing bad things... I'm thinking of getting a VA who could close a deal through the calls but they might charge me a huge percentage of the pay and I'm just starting
@growthwithreagan well how come you don’t to tell them?
Are you worried they’ll take your money?
Great video Patrick! These are really good tips for beginner designers. For those of you who are more established asking people for a review may have you lose altitude with higher paying clients so I'd post something where you offer to do an audit of their website for free. This may get you additional interested parties and you'll still maintain your position as an expert.
Really appreciate it Maria!!
The only down side when posting about an audit, is that the post will have a much high chance of being rejected.
Maybe one could post a comment on the post, mentioning the free audit 🙂
Hey Patrick do you have any cold calling scripts for outreach for websites?
Hey, not at the moment unfortunately!
What tool do you use to create websites? Do you store them all on the same hosting?
I use webflow :)
webflow.grsm.io/3rkd99edv1qd
Hey Patrick,
Can you share DM script or cold email script for cold outreach? And please make a video about this topic.
I’m currently still perfecting my messaging but will definitely make a video about it in the future
Actually, watching this video because I needed some inspiration, and you're cute as hell, so here we go!
😆😁 Really appreciate it haha!
Hope the video also gave yo some ideas or helped you with your next steps :)
@@patrickspiegel I was pretty distracted but Ill try to focus better in the future, Patrick.
@@benwarped7272 😂
Amazing video. What software do you use for editing? Do you use any Motion VFX plug-in or do you create your animations from scratch?
Hi Diego.
Thanks so much for the kind words!
I use FCPX and used Jitter for some of the effects :)
@@patrickspiegel Learning how to edit has been a pain. Thanks for the insight!
@Diego_Cabrera haha it is a long learning curve. And can be painful.
Happy to help :)
Hi
where did you learn web design do you recommend any course or resources
I honestly just looked at a bunch of websites and practised myself.
There’s enough free content online to learn the basics of design.
Then it’s about Building that skill -> by experimenting and practising :)
But the post must be only the hero section or a full-page?
Doesn’t matter.
As I mentioned you can two options :)
I put out a message in an expat group that I'm in, and had to stop it after 6 people jumped on things within an hour. They're in a way different timezone too.
Currently doing SEO and web work for all at the same time.
My first agency clients, but I've been a designer for companies my whole career. It was shockingly easy, so this video absolutely tracks, and I know there's going to be even more opportunity.
Yeah he is brilliant, thank you Patrick
That's awesome!!
Cant wait to hear future success stories.
Keep us updated!!
@@patrickspiegelI will definitely do so, and share the info as well, since now someone with more authority than me is sharing what I told them already, haha!
😆😁 Looking forward!
Good ❤❤
Are yo going to try this method?
@@patrickspiegel yes absolutely
I mean a dm
hey patrick, what are your thoughts on building websites for clients using web builders that require no code such wix, squarespace, showit? Is Coding necessary to become a web designer?
Hi 👋
I personally use Webflow so no, you absolutely don’t need to know code to build websites for clients.
I’m fact, most clients will prefer that you use no code tools :)
Hope that helps
The discord link could not open. It couldn't finish loading
Oh that’s odd.
It works for others.
Maybe try a different device if you have.
Or re-download it ?
Sorry about rhat
Is it better to use a screenshot instead of the web URL?
I would use screenshots.
If you use a link, then they will be unmotivated to go to another website to see results.
With a screenshot, they see the design right there :)
I like how you flipped the logo in your thumbnail, so people can't see you're talking about FB groups. It confused me with is it twitter, discord, trello or something else
Haha that was the plan 😉
Hi patrick, I did it but they quickly blocked my account for suspicious activity (I guess it's because my account is new, I created it because of your video, since I don't really use facebook).
I could only post it in 4 groups, normally how many posts a day can you make in different groups?
Hi, oh i'm really sorry to hear this
I posted in 20 groups and didn't have any issue; but I've had my account for many years.
Is your account blocked from the groups or from facebook?
Sorry to hear!
@@patrickspiegel From facebook, I mean, I can't access, but anyway I already sent an appeal, in a little more than a day I should receive an answer.
Hey did you hear a reply yet??
@@patrickspiegel Hello, they confirmed that account is suspended forever. so I created another account, it's been a few days and for now it's fine, i'm considering changing niche, but that is a different matter
Thank you very much for being so attentive
Oh that’s a shame!!
Sorry to hear that.
Maybe you need to use the account slowly and for a longer period of time.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
Your information is just like a path to heaven😅😅 , but brother I post a prototype of dental website but no one replied even I also commented on their post for website development but no response 😢😢! Any Idea 💡💡
Can you share the link to this redesigned website? And any proof that you made it.
I think the video is a little bit of a scam, tbh
I ended up doing a redesign but they developed it (with their friend) as it was out of budget. Let me know if you want the link :)
Sorry you feel that way. I just shared what worked for me (didn’t think it would get this much attention 😂😆)
The niche link didn't work.
Do you mean the Niche video?
Here it is :)

Make sure that you've crafted a really good offer before jumping on to the sales call
Great point Benjamin!
Do you do full website delivery service?
@@patrickspiegel I am still working at a full time job but my goal is to break free by July and start my own webdesign service business.
@benjaminkalungi1330 awesome. Have you decided what niche or direction you will go in
HI
Hey 👋
Some niche people hangout on Instagram. How would you handle that? No groups on Instagram sadly.
What do you mean some niche people?
And then I would go to a different platform! :)
I was looking for "California Landscapers" and found out they do not hang out on FB Groups that much. Very few posts per week. They're pretty active on Instagram. Talking in that context. Would you switch the niche or the strategy in that case?
What would be the strategy on Instagram or on twitter?@@patrickspiegel
Great question.
Are you sure you cant find any facebook groups?
If that niche is what you want to pursue and makes sense for you, I wouldn't switch niches just because one strategy doesn't work :)
For instagram, you'll probably have to do outreach.
But double check if you can find some groups somewhere.
Sorry that I couldn't help further!
Any tips for instagram? What strategy would you follow?
Other than engaging with your type of clients and doing outreach it's very hard to do anything else.
Except for posting of course.@@ahmaliic
Its called bombing
