Hey Everyone,
I recently launched my web design agency and decided to kick off with cold calling. I’ve reached out to about 100 businesses, particularly painters in Toronto with basic websites, offering a no upfront cost deal at $25 a month for hosting and maintenance for my first 20 clients. Unfortunately, I haven’t seen much traction. Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong or if my offer needs tweaking? I only do static sites so basically no e-commerce would that be limiting myself?
the issue is the channel (cold call) you are choosing to use, its not typical for web design to use that as an approach, and most people will assume it spam call. you can try messaging on their website (if they have one) snail mail to their studio, linkedin messaging, messaging via deviant art and related placed.
additionally, try and find events where painters would meet, nothing bets speaking to a customer face to face.
