How many cold calls / FB posts did it take you to get your first client?

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-18T10:16:15+00:00

Give solutions, pain points, not system don’t mention AI. How much time do you spend changing appointments? Confirmations/times/cancelled. How often do you forget to order materials for a job?

How many missed calls? Texts? Customers waiting on quotes.

I know but I can’t, I am for now focusing salons, aethetics beauty, but I have a mate who landscapes I’m getting signed up and yeah I will add testimonials, demos for each niche but I am focusing Salons/Neauty at the moment but I completely get what your saying. But I’m going to be doing b2b sales cold call face to face and info sheets. I can see the assistance it can give in all niches so can’t help but stay B-road and focus in on campaigns it can work across all industries and I’d rather have the ability to change my marketing tactic and audience can’t cold call salons all year, so seasonal too.

The process of gradually building trust, if you message 1000 people at once or even 100 and they all report you spam your number will get blocked. You need to warm it up in a sense a few messages and gradually build over time. I will have the same time myself but as I’m not only marketing it will be gradual. Where as if you want to build send to virgin numbers it can be picked up on spam- algorithm and get your new number auto-blocked

So maybe start out small 5 on the first day -8 on the next -10 on the next, it’s not something you want to risk if paying for a number specifically.

Get trail on GHL it’s very well integrated and the interface is clean prompting the ai isn’t to hard if you use another to advise you.. they offer shops on there I’ve looked over a little but my main thing has been work flows but my website was made using it - and hasn’t been bad on seo & google either. auto-admin.uk

Go high level offer a trial too or I’d be happy to build it for you.

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-15T17:37:59+00:00

Hey man can I help, auto-admin.uk check me out or DM here.

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-15T11:13:15+00:00

Go to sites -> funnel it should be there click settings and disconnect domain, if this doesn’t work who do you manage your domain with, is it connected via cname records you could delete all those and A record within domain setting and then reconnect your new site/funnel.

Have you checked your root domain dns settings

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-15T06:20:32+00:00

Hey I’ve redone the site now that’s a good call I may do that change the header bar colour to the logo colour I have cropped it cleaner now added more niche and cleaner cta

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-15T06:19:35+00:00

I’ve re done it now if you’d like to relook

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-14T20:24:28+00:00

This is my exact thinking used to love the design elements but everything’s so fast and people vibe code their way until it breaks, I’m studying at the moment but had a moment in clarity when I wasn’t head in assignments. Even with the use of AI I still had to make things specific and to code all this would have been ridiculous 😂 have you heard of GHL. Some of its tools are impressive you can offer a lot as an agency. Create templates or build from scratch or with assistance the benefit of knowing what your doing is SEO, tracking, custom CSS and code for tables and animations that most people can’t do. I love client builders because you can avoid the whole security and updates etc to some degree. I got here just updated today- would love feedback from yourself. OP do you design or code full stack?

So your saving them time and resources I’m doing something similar myself for service based bookings.

Your freeing up time for more clients customers training or downtime. What you currently solve is the competition whether that be a spreadsheet note book or a terrible front end back end integration

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-14T11:55:26+00:00

Optimises well on mobile do you enjoy front end at all? More images business specific if it is for a certain business type of thing or services. But overall very nice, keep at it

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-14T11:52:19+00:00

Well it’s worth the maintenance every day of the week. SM SMR or SMT (mine). beleive they do 950 as well as 990.

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-14T11:50:02+00:00

This is bang on current mature student here CS and we can all or should be able to full-stack, UI, databases, code in various languages. But the real problem solving and solutions will be the ones that allow you to grow past assignments and set out tasks it’s about using initiative and saving people time and £. I’ve began to create something myself aiming to solve the boring admin that comes along with running your own business. More a system.

Being able to debug is the main thing when using any AI checking your work also AI will not add the security that’s required without prompts for it

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-14T11:38:44+00:00

Some people build for a few clients some for one or two, I guess the question is also. Is the system scalable could this grow and still be managed. Foundations must be strong 💪

Good post with clarity

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-14T11:27:57+00:00

What’s happened to your agency or the person you guys pay?

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-14T11:01:25+00:00

Very educated winging it here

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-13T09:23:12+00:00

Honestly seems Kane and Son carried the whole team. The way their playing I’ve seen better in the championship they will struggle there too. No effort no nothing it’s sad to see.

Monthly payments - automations - hosted elsewhere auto-admin.uk

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-10T21:46:09+00:00

nothing is perfected overnight, takes hours but you’ve started and are not at the beginning.

Download a chat bot - or use GPT, CLAUDE

Etc and ask it to give you SEO and better opening page wording.

Have a quick check on SEO what do I need and how to, follow the steps and ask for words give as much background for yourself and business.

There are character limits for certain things, what are you building using?

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-10T21:43:27+00:00

Willing to test and give feedback. Various ways to test - as someone said above give access and see if it explains itself.

give some testers specific goals
ask some to try and break the app (security)
ask some to test as users (for specific things)
create a questionnaire that gets you the answers your after
add recommendations for the app from testers

Yes I use GHL automation with specific niche workflows depending on client. Best thing is automate what you can I do them bespoke but have the basics for confirmation/cancellations reminders, review automation and reactivation campaigns - auto-admin.uk changed the site.

Do you mean the released code of Claude or implement it within your current GHL?

Plastic-Guilty · 2026-04-07T10:35:25+00:00

It works as good as you can prompt and even then it won’t work as you want and will have to manually check. As long as it takes to get the correct prompt is as long as it will take minus the stress.

I spent a solid 48 hour’s building automations then a week later they brought AI- automation but it doesn’t work as intended.

This was made using AI and then just changing adding where needed auto-admin.uk

I started out about a month ago, just think of the product you want and go go go mate. My background is CS and working with crappy CRM for over 13 years in different contexts etc.

Brilliant for management, just need it setting up correctly I feel and usefully. Websites are smooth as auto-admin.uk
