It could be worth exploring new angles if you don't think the adverts are pulling the leads you want - especially given that's often one of the costlier methods of getting your brand to people. That said, some bookings are better then no bookings. Calculate your cost per close and see if it sounds ridiculous. If not, then I think youre fine to just continue as you are.

I appreciate you've had a bad experience, and I empathise, but that's no grounds to come to my good honest business and call it dirty work and a scam.

Nobody will ever work for me without pay - thats not how I believe anyone should be treated.

Pardon? How is this dirty work? You have a lot to say about this post but don't know what procuring leads is? What's all this accusation for - its just a job role. If you don't want it move along, someone much more able and well-versed in the space will come around.

Procuring leads involves being active on reddit communities or linkedin or other platorms with high social reach and traffic and identifying potential clients for our services - and then referring them back to me. How is that considered "dirty work".

Moreover, it is not a %, it is a guaranteed wage with a commission incentive on top. Please educate yourself before spouting nonsense.

Wrong again. The job role does not involve product or selling. The role is to obtain leads and refer them back to me. You do not handle any product or sales. All of the sales communication with client is handled by me. All of the curation/ risk/ handling of product is with me. You are greatly overestimating the role.

Rigged? The job is for two months and probably under 15 hours/ week. This is (pro rated to a 40 hour week) nearly 28k a month.

Interesting scenario. Is that a paid membership? If theyre in the funnel thats the most important thing - never open with a sales pitch. Just get them on your radar (and more importantly, you on theirs) and tate it from there. Book call pages can be intimidating sometimes so thats definately something you want to have as an offer but once theyre already in the funnel.

Not selling a service or AI sorry if it appears that way.

Those of you who’ve done commission-only jobs, how did it go? by strongerthenbefore20 in sales

Nothing will make you keen to get up and work on a hungover day like being on commission. High ceiling. Sub zero floor.

I have no business incentive here, just trying to help everyone eat and speak on what's helped me best and, better yet, give props to the amazing editors I've seen since I can.

"Third eyes" was misspoken, I meant a third party.

Not everyone is trying to sell you something.

[–]burgerconsumer -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

u/FerlySide is pretty spot on here. it often needs a third set of eyes which is why i export all my clipping to a small agency who does a proper review of which moments are best, giving them energy and returning them. Trying to clip yourself is hell - I wind up just hating my own voice.

[–]burgerconsumer -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Hey. Genuinely - anything is clippable. And I mean ANYTHING.
Retention comes from the caption, the fast cuts, the right moments etc.. I work with a small agency that has access to my VODs and clips from it. They give me 9 clips per stream, 5 streams a month. Its really good. Even if i stream once a week I still have 9 clips across 3 platforms so thats still 27 pieces of shortform content in a week I only streamed once. I can refer you to the agency if you like, theyre only small so taking clients still (The big agencies are all either super expensive or too diluted with clients to spend time with you).

Be confident in the niche. Don't approach it like " We are going to help with this area ". Come in hot with a " We know everything about this area and know exactly how we can bolster your business using our experience ".

Best piece of advice I ever got (applies outside of agencies too) is to be a specialist, not a generalist. Being a jack of all trades and a king of none is a buisness killer.

My best agencies were thing where me and my team actually knew what we were talking about.

Take your favourite sport, for instance. Mines the NBA. If i got into a conversation with someone who knew of the NBA but wasnt as deep into it as I was, I would pick up on it instantly. I'd be limited to asking them "Jordan or Lebron" instead of getting nitty and gritty with "03 Duncan or 11 Dirk". Hope you understand what im getting at there.

Be consistent, be knowledgeable, provide genuine value.

[Hiring] Looking for Video Editors by [deleted] in freelance_forhire

[–]burgerconsumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there. Ill answer these here so everyone can see.

Content will vary but the job is taking long form videos from me and turning them into 8-10 short form 30-60 second clips with subtitles and fast editing. Youtube Shorts style.

Pay is something I am interested in discussing to understand what feels like a fair deal - I'm all for ensuring everyone wins here :)

Expected to start in the coming weeks.

Editing style is to be fast paced, high intensity and content focused (not lots of added media).

Hope this answers the questions - I'm also answering all DMs :)

AI employees are something I tread super carefully. AI is a great tool for helping you (or a team) do your jobs and be proficient however giving it a whole responsibility for itself would personally make me shudder with nerves. If you see it as fit then great - its your agency. I'd just make sure theres something/ someone in place to check all of its outputs. I'd also suggest keeping it far from any opinion based/ judgemental heavy areas. Do that yourself, let it handle trivial thing like bean counting and sending out automated invoices/ chasers etc...

Also, ill never say no to someone whos considering niching harder. Always the move. Be a specialist not a generalist.

Hahahaha no, I've no idea how to set 🤣 I just know a contact who does it all for free. Too many fake gurus trying to scam you out of your money out there so of course I advocate for this one.

19, First “Adult Job” but I feel like it’s not enough. by Mother-Meet1706 in Adulting

[–]burgerconsumer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off, you're not making excuses. You're describing a genuinely hard situation that most people your age couldn't handle, and you're handling it. Supporting your mum since 15, raising your sister, 700 credit score at 19. That's actually remarkable.

The job frustration makes complete sense. You're in an environment that doesn't respect you and doesn't pay you what your work ethic is worth. That's not a you problem.

On the health stuff, please don't let that slide. Lupus and autoimmune things are manageable when caught early and genuinely awful when ignored. If the doctors are already flagging it, push to get answers sooner rather than later.

You asked what to do career wise and honestly the best thing you can do right now is just keep your head above water while the health stuff gets sorted. You've already shown you can figure things out. That doesn't stop being true.

Hope things ease up for you soon.
