If you really want to make money running a web design business then you'll have to offer a premium service to the best type of clients and I can show you how to do that.

In order to build a company that offers complete digital solutions rather than being an overworked freelancer you will need to learn the following:

  • How to continue The basic principles behind the business.
  • Getting work Should you signup on bidding sites, cold call or concentrate on your site to bring in business?
  • Dealing with clients How much information, what to say and when to say it.
  • Numerous tried-and-tested email transcripts to simply paste into your client emails.

  • How to specialize … and ways to pinpoint your interests so you because the go-to business in a certain field.
  • And, meet the designers. Direct advice from over 40 successful independent web designers!

This isn't just my business model. We have surveyed over 40 different independent designers from the mega-successful to those just starting out. Some names you may know, like David Airey, Chris Spooner and John O'Nolan. They answered questions like how much you should charge, how much time you should spend marketing, how you should get work and many more.
