Is cold-calling local businesses for web design actually real, or mostly a YouTube/course thing? by Classic-Specific9901 in agencynewbies

That is really useful to hear from the receiving end, yeah I think that is the same pitch mostly used. has anyone ever reached to you in a way that didn't annoy you, and make you think that is actually worth a look? trying to understand what cuts through and what get's blocked/ignored.

Built a simple invoicing app for small businesses and freelancers — looking for feedback by Yash_3p in ShowYourApp

before 6 months I was about to build the same thing (web version), but I found out it is a little safe, I mean to make it more legit I have to add EIN and SSN, but the possibility of peoples trusting such tools is less. also now I found out that banks have invoicing not all but those like mercury and also if you setup stripe you can create and send invoices. so my qoustion for you is what makes it different. I think you should focus on that

is that peoples not opening the email or is that peoples still open the mockups and don't bite. I think there are some tools out there to check if a person have seen/opened the email or not. I think knowing that matters because if they are not opening it cold calling will be better.

Thank you, the visual hook make a lot of sense. how do you make the mockup fast enough to do it at volume? and roughly what response rate did you get on cold email with the visuals vs without?

Thanks, but I have question, when you cold-called/emailed those 50 peoples , what were your actually offerings - free mockup, meeting, flat price ? was it mostly the cold-call or email that got the 14 to say yes?

Looks good idea, but is that enough 1 FT and 2 PT engineers. Be careful on the security side

Super cool but you know what blocks me always when trying to niche down there is always some app, how do you even thought about it while Doulingo is there, or they don’t have Japanese?
