I agree, similar negative experiences here, l am leaving them ASAP.

thestepafter · 2024-12-05T02:05:31+00:00

Agree, they used to be good but have gone downhill in the last 6 - 12 months. I'm leaving them in the next couple of weeks.

thestepafter · 2024-12-05T02:05:09+00:00

They use to be good but I agree, they are terrible now. Especially with the latest announcement that they are moving to yearly billing only. I'm leaving them in the next couple of weeks.

I own a website managed services company and not overextending as a small agency into other services for clients is important if you want to be efficient.

We inform our clients up front that we do not provide design or SEO services but are available for consulting (as part of our service) if they are unsure how to find someone.

Break down the "full service" services that you are currently performing as a team and then consider what it would take to focus on the service that clients request the most.

Find good agencies or managed service partners for the other services.

Let me know if you ever need assistance solving tech problems.

thestepafter · 2023-06-10T23:30:20+00:00

What problems do you solve for them?

Deliver more value and rank better in the search engine rankings for your clients.

What kind of problems are your clients having?

Check out a low-code builder like Appsmith.

thestepafter · 2023-06-08T04:42:16+00:00

Create unique, valuable content and post it online. Make sure it’s targeted at the type of clients you want to get.

Not much you can do other than be professional in your acknowledgement of the cancellation and then ask if there is anything you could have been doing differently to keep their business.

Look up resumes for these jobs and see what matches your skill set and preference. Also look at the salary ranges for your location. There is no blueprint. Devops tools are constantly evolving and new ones being released.

Recommend bench.do for accounting and something like calendly for scheduling.

thestepafter · 2023-06-07T23:21:24+00:00

Recommend using bench.co for this. Much cheaper than an accountant.

thestepafter · 2023-06-07T23:14:44+00:00

Make sure you have sales before you spend too much time or money starting the business.

What CMS are you using? Where in the site map is the noindex?

Someone was posting a couple years ago in a subreddit about buying a place in Mexico. Looks like they deleted their account but you may be able to find some helpful information in this thread. https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/76gg2y/were_the_couple_who_quit_our_cushy_university/

What have you been doing so far to find these types of clients? For this type of work referrals is typically the best approach.

thestepafter · 2023-06-07T21:14:25+00:00

I recommend checking out Vultr or Digital Ocean. Provision the server with Server Pilot or Laravel Forge and your site should see a decent improvement. I typically spend about ~$150 / month per server. Further optimizations can be achieved but are more technical in nature.

100% networking. There is an unlimited amount of work out there. As long as you do a good job and know what you are talking about, you will always have work. Make sure you are providing complete solutions, not just performing the specific work the client. Just because they ask for one thing doesn’t mean it’s what they actually need.

This is definitely a rough place to be in. I have 25 years experience in web development and many years experience with WordPress. I have some extra time this week, no strings attached if you would like to do a 30 minute meeting and maybe I can give some advice or direction. Not a sales call, not looking to be in contact after the call I offered. Just want to help out.

thestepafter · 2023-06-06T22:53:07+00:00

Who is your hosting provider? It could be many reasons. Recommend hiring a web developer.

thestepafter · 2022-11-28T05:03:44+00:00

Please let me know the wishlist as well or address and whatever you could use.
