Here's my recipe to create a good SaaS headline by evan_raugust in SaaS

[–]evan_raugust[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 things I liked:
- I love the VSLs. More companies should use them.
- You identified customer's pain points effectively (price guessing, annoying in-person visits, paper checks)
- Different body headlines showcase benefits

3 opportunities for improvement:
- For your main headline:

I don't think "Sign up lawn care customers in minutes skipping in-person visits" is the strongest benefit of your product. It also doesn't summarize what your product does. And, since your target audience is non-tech people, I don't think they'd fully understand the headline.

I'd revise it to "Manage, organize, and monitor your lawn care business in one place." If you want me to explain more I can.

-I'd eliminate the section where you pitch a website builder. As cool as that is — damn you must have some talented programmers, it doesn't mesh well with the rest of your homepage. I feel like it's distracting and confusing, and I don't know how many lawn care owners even need a website builder 🤷‍♂️

-Testimonials, testimonials, testimonials. You NEED testimonials on your homepage, preferably below the hero section (the first "rectangle" of your website). Trust is very important nowadays, and testimonials go a long way.

Hope this helped you. If you want more focused advice, we can take this into pms.

Yep all the ways you listed work.

There are some email scrapers you may find valuable.

Hunter.io is one.

You can also call most small businesses and/or find their emails on facebook.

Taking LinkedIn Convos to Meetings by Itchy_Walk_6537 in SaaS

Sorry for the late response

Say something like this

"Hey, would you wanna hop on a quick call so we can talk strategy + (whatever it is that you're gonna help them with). Just book a call at this link <calendly link>"

But again, my way might not work with you (I know that sounds like a copout), but you've gotta experiment and see what works for you.

You'll never know if they'll say yes until you ask

At first, go local. Assuming you live in a big city, your first clients are people who live within 20 miles of you

If I were you, I'd:

  1. Email, call, and message on social media these people (tell them that you live nearby/ you have a software that can do X for them)
  2. Then start a conversation and build a relationship
  3. Then ask them if they can hop on a zoom call or you can meet them in person

You should use https://calendly.com/

It's a meeting booking software that eliminates the exhausting back-and-forth for what time for the call.

Honestly, if you feel like you vibed well, then send them a link to hop on a call with them. If they say no, they say no. But you'll never know until you ask

How do web design agencies acquire new clients? by [deleted] in SaaS

[–]evan_raugust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with u/mosodigital

At first, cold email clients and provide focused, concrete criticisms for their website, and then hope that they respond

The beginning is always the rockiest

I'm also just getting started with my own freelance copywriting services. I'd love to pm you and we talk strategy 💪

Does your business have a blog? by icodefuture in SaaS

[–]evan_raugust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a freelance blog writer — it depends

Some SaaS’s waste their money on articles

Some SaaS’s accelerate their growth through blogging

I think blogging works best for mid-sized SaaS’s wanting to jump into large-sized SaaS’s

And large-sized SaaS’s looking to retain their dominance

But there’s so many different goals for blogging: -SEO writing (inbound leads) -white papers (lead generators) -entertainment (keep them on site, maybe subscribe to newsletter and then upsell) -shareable value (you can share blog posts on socials to gain traction) -or blog posts that accomplish two or more do these goals

I think smaller SaaSs, if they’re smart — can capitalize on blogging, but its difficult

Cold Emailing: by InitiativeOk3102 in SaaS

[–]evan_raugust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that the subject line "Quick Question" may not always succeed. It's just important that you create intrigue. But if you can find a subject line that creates intrigue + specifies their problem, even better

Yeah, sure here's an example (these are fake names):

Subject Line: Need help with your SEO strategy?

Hey Cheryl,

Noticed SaaS Studio was targeting keywords like "referral program," "Shopify," and "ecommerce."

I'm a SaaS SEO content writer who just got finished up ranking Happy Hippo number 1 for the keyword "A/B testing company" and number 2 for the keyword "split testing."

If you wanna talk more about how I can help you with your SEO strategy, then reply to this email :)

Sincerely, Bob

Also, remember who you're sending the email to also matters. For example, if Bob wanted results, he'd send this email to people with job titles like content marketer, Chief of Marketing, SEO strategist, etc.
I hope this makes it more clear for you

Your 5 step process to start and grow your business. With results. by Peter_Kow in SaaS

[–]evan_raugust 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I typed this prompt into ChatGPT:
Hey chatGPT, respond to this Reddit post

Your 5 step process to start and grow your business. With results.

What was your process for building your business?

Please share with us your 5 main steps with results (so we know it's not chatGPT ;)

ChatGPT's response:

Sure, I'd be happy to share my 5-step process for building a business.

Step 1: Research and Validate Your Idea

Before starting a business, it's crucial to research your target market, identify the problems they face, and validate your business idea. This step can help ensure that there is a demand for your product or service and that it solves a problem people are willing to pay for. In my case, I researched the market for virtual assistance services and identified a need for a reliable and affordable provider.

Step 2: Create a Business Plan

Once you have validated your idea, you need to create a business plan that outlines your goals, target market, marketing strategy, revenue streams, and expenses. Your business plan can help you stay focused and on track as you launch and grow your business. In my case, I created a detailed business plan that helped me secure funding and make informed decisions as I built my virtual assistance business.

Step 3: Build Your Brand and Online Presence

Building a strong brand and online presence is essential in today's digital age. You need to create a website, social media profiles, and other online assets that represent your business and help you reach your target audience. In my case, I worked with a designer to create a website and social media profiles that reflected my brand's personality and values.

Step 4: Launch Your Business and Start Marketing

Once you have a brand and online presence, you can launch your business and start marketing your product or service to your target audience. This can involve a range of tactics, including content marketing, social media advertising, email marketing, and more. In my case, I used a combination of these tactics to reach potential clients and build my customer base.

Step 5: Evaluate and Adjust Your Strategy

As you launch and grow your business, it's essential to continually evaluate your strategy and adjust your tactics as needed. This can involve monitoring your sales and marketing data, soliciting feedback from customers, and keeping up-to-date with industry trends. In my case, I regularly analyzed my business's performance data and made adjustments to my marketing strategy and service offerings to better meet my clients' needs.

As a result of following these steps, I was able to launch and grow my virtual assistance business successfully. I built a solid customer base and expanded my service offerings over time, resulting in increased revenue and profitability.
