ABE KURIAN, CREATIVE WEB RESULTS


The Journey To Building The Service-Based Business You’ve Dreamed Of Owning Starts Here:
There are two big obstacles that stand in the way of growth for every service-based business.

Whether you’re just getting started with your business or you’ve been running an agency for years, it’s inevitable, you’re going to have to face and overcome these obstacles.

Do you know what they are?

According to a recent study I conducted with 149 service-based business owners, you’re probably more familiar with these roadblocks than you’d like.

Here are the most common words the business owners I interviewed used to describe the challenges they face.


Escape the Lack of Clients or Lack of Time Trap
Not enough clients or not enough time.

For most service-based business owners it’s one or the other.

Yet, I am willing to bet your inspiration for starting your own business wasn’t to be consumed by anxiety about how, when, and where you’re going to find your next client...

Or to spend 90 hours a week trying to service your clients, just so you can scrape by, pay the bills, and live to fight another day.

No, like most of us, you are likely looking for a better way.

Running a service-based business is a chance to do the work you love while leading life on your own terms.

More importantly, your business is an opportunity to turn your expertise into the financial asset your job could never become.

But the moment your agency meanders into the not-enough-clients or not-enough-time trap two things happen:

1
You transform your dream business into a high-stress job that absorbs (NOT enhances) your life.
2
Your business fails to deliver the security, benefits, time off, or even the pay rate most hourly 9 to 5 jobs offer.
These outcomes are the opposite of your ambitions and inspirations.

And I don’t want you to suffer this fate a single day longer than you have to.

So today, I want to share how you can break free of the not-enough-clients/not-enough-time doom loop and build the business you’ve always dreamed of owning.

The Origins of the Data Driven Story

Hi, I’m Jeff Sauer

You may know me as the founder of Data Driven.

But long before I started my online digital marketing training hub, I was a freelance web developer, a database specialist, and an SEO…

Honestly, I was a freelance “I’ll do whatever you pay me to do within reason.”

Now, fortunately, I found my way out of this phase of my career.


And, I worked my way up to become a partner in an award-winning digital marketing agency.



By adopting the principles I am going to share with you today, my agency grew so rapidly we were recognized as one of Inc. 5000’s Fastest Growing Businesses five straight years in a row.


Yet, the best part is the fundamentals I’m sharing with you have helped hundreds of others achieve their own business success.

You see, by building your business to avoid the lack-of-clients/lack-of-time trap, you can use your business to create real financial and lifestyle freedom.

I know this because I’ve lived it.

The success of my agency allowed me the freedom and time to not only travel the world but also build Data Driven into a 19,175 members-strong community.

19,175

MEMBERS

And the 1,000s of Data Driven members who’ve joined my business programs have seen life-changing success as well.

Last year was a record year for me in terms of both revenue and profit



SEAN POWER

I used the ideas from your course to identify my niche, hustle for meetings with key decision makers and eventually price a value driven proposal for a prospect who responded. After 3 face to face meetings and a long call, we signed a contract with a retainer which is 5x of what I used to charge and a nice setup fee.



SID JASHANI

So let’s talk about how you can grow your business to support the life you ultimately want to live while achieving your most ambitious financial goals.

The Three Growth Principles you MUST Implement to Create a Highly Profitable and Sustainable Service-Based Business
There are three key principles that comprise the pillars of growth for every service-based business.

Embracing and implementing these principles in your business will allow you to:

Magnetically attract clients to your business
Scale your services while increasing your profits
And manage your business to achieve your growth targets
Agency Growth Principle #1

Build Your BRAND Into Your Lead Generation Machine
Myth

The best way to attract clients is to do great work and deliver above expectations.







Truth

Word of mouth and referrals are unreliable sources of lead generation. If you want to be in demand, grow your brand!





Great work is what your clients expect, and rightfully so. Your clients will focus on themselves first. Sure when it’s convenient they might mention you to their colleagues.



But if your work is truly great - the secret weapon your clients can’t do without - they also might want to keep you all to themselves so they can monopolize your expertise.

The truth is word-of-mouth and referrals are unreliable when it comes to lead generation.

So what other options are out there to get in front of clients?

Job Boards, Paid Media, SEO?

Here’s the deal.

All of these tactics can work. But ONLY if you differentiate yourself from the pack… AND... deliver a message that captives the attention of your potential clients.

The best way to connect with your ideal clients and stand out from your competition is to…

Build Your Brand
Building your brand doesn’t mean you have to become Nike or Pepsi.

It simply means you need to do these two things really, really well:





1.

Identify your best service and industry niches



2.

Craft a unique selling proposition that resonates with your ideal clients


Most agencies fail to attract enough clients because they don’t understand how to leverage niches. They also have no idea what motivates their clients to hire a service provider.

Now, this is great news for you… because guess what happens when you select the right niches for your business?

And when you craft a unique selling proposition that speaks to your clients most burning desires?

You magnetically attract clients to your business.

And this wealth of client opportunities allows you to choose to work with the cream of the crop… which in turn allows you to experience successes that build your brand even faster.

The process of building your brand all starts with this simple equation:


Nail these two variables and no matter how you choose to promote your business, if there are clients within your reach, they’ll be lined up to work with you.

To be honest, we just copied most of the strategies from Jeff's course, and it helped us to create a foundation to become Estonias top AdWords agency in only 10 months. So, money well spent 🙂


ANDRES RUUL, HOLINI


Agency Growth Principle #2

80/20 Everything
Myth

The only thing you need to do to grow your business is land more clients.







Truth

Clients bring in revenue, they don't create profits. To Increase your profits and make your business more efficient you need to 80/20 your service plan.

You can’t grow your business without clients. Yet, too many clients can also kill your business if you’re not prepared to handle the workload.



And while clients bring in revenue, they don’t create profits.

What creates profits for your business is scaling your ability to deliver your services.



1.

Low-value tasks need to be automated, delegated or outsourced.



2.

Your services have to become standardized as much as possible, without watering down the personalization and customization your clients are buying from you.



3.

Your lead qualification process needs to be highly efficient, so you don’t waste time on bad prospects.



4.

Your new client onboarding needs to be a well-oiled machine that sets the right expectations and gets your customers excited to work with you.

BUT, if you never hired employees or contractors before, OR standardized your services, OR created an onboarding process…

Then taking on these challenges can feel more overwhelming than simply maintaining the status quo.

So how do you make the 80/20 shift in your business?
Speaking from experience, there are really only two ways to do this.



1

The hard way: Go for it, and hope you don’t get burned by a bad hire, or process oversight, or a gaffe with a client.

OR



2

The fast way: Learn from someone else who’s already been there, borrow everything they’ll share with you, and adapt it to your business model.

When my agency truly started to take off we hired a $6,000 a day coach to help us fix our processes so we could grow profitably. As costly and difficult as it was to try 80/20 ourselves while were growing, it was still the best money I ever spent on my business.

80/20 your business early on and you’ll be able to bring in new clients profitably without hitting a revenue wall or burning yourself out.

Doing the exercises in the (Data Driven) programs allowed our business to take a huge leap forward. They forced me to take a look at my business in a way I never have before.


LORRAINE WATSON, TRISPHERE


Agency Growth Principle #3

Don’t Just Know Your Numbers … Manage Your Business To Your Numbers
Myth

Profit is the only metric you need to worry about.





Truth

Earning a profit from day-1 is a great start, but if you don’t know how to use your profits, you can’t scale your business.

The members in my business courses are always surprised by what they learn when they enter their business’s numbers into the Data Driven growth projection model.

This model reveals by-the-numbers answers to many of the questions that keep business owners awake at night.

Questions like:

How many clients do I really need to hit 7-figures in revenue?
How many employees can I afford to take on and when should I hire them?
When should I increase my own salary, and what do I risk by pulling money out of my business?
Turning your vision for your business into tangible Data Driven targets is an absolutely crucial process.

But the real skill lies in managing your business to hit your targets.

Jeff’s course is like getting an MBA in running an Agency. Intense, thorough, rich in detail, and taught by someone who has lived the agency life and started and scaled a successful agency. This is not theoretical knowledge – these are hard-learned lessons, taught by an entrepreneur who is excellent at teaching.


FRED PIKE, NORTHWOODS SOFTWARE


Now the bad news is, there’s no magic pill that will transform your ability to financially manage your business.

You have to learn and you have to earn these skills.

Yet, the good news is there are ways to drastically reduce your learning curve and avoid the substantial risks of financial mismanagement.

The Faster Way To Grow Your Service-Based Business
The opportunity I am about to share with you is unlike any I have ever offered before.

The programs I am introducing today are uniquely designed to provide you with the guidance, knowledge, and resources to:

Develop a brand that magnetically attracts clients

80/20 every stage of your service process

Manage your business to your targets

Now, before we go any further, I need to share one more truth.

If you’re suffering from lack-of-clients or lack-of-time, there’s no overnight fix for these problems.

But, what you can do is take control and dedicate yourself to make a change in your business now, before you hit the point of no return.

And starting today, you can follow a complete program that will guide you through implementing the three guaranteed growth principles for your business.

SEAN POWER

DIGITAL MARKETING FREELANCER

Hi Jeff, I just wanted to send a quick note to let you know I finished the Agency Course and it exceeded my expectations. Seriously, mega! I honestly feel like there must be thousands of digital marketers out there in a similar position to me that your course would help give the confidence to make the jump, so keep up the great work and I wish you all the best for success.



NICK MATHER

When I put Jeff’s sales techniques to use the results were immediate. He helped me take all the awkwardness out my sales pitch. And literally the day after I started using his tips, I had the best sales call in the history of my company.



JOSH BRAATEN

BRANDISH INSIGHTS

There are numerous consultants out there pitching their services to business owners to help them generate more leads and help to grow their business

Once you start digging it's amazing how many of these experts have had their successes just by selling their information products and coaching programmes to people looking to grow their business

They haven't got a solid track record of recently selling their services business to business or if they have then it's from years ago.

Jeff Sauer is different - he's not only built his own agency over a number of years but he is also putting his selling expertise into practice today dealing with clients looking to utilize his agency's digital marketing services.

Sometimes it's just refreshing to get a different perspective or to know you are doing the right things right.

The video training, templates and step by step processes he provides within all his program are outstanding



SIMON CONNOR

FE MARKETING

I learned more in this course than I have pretty much all the other courses I’ve taken in my life. The great thing about this course is that everything is actionable. It’s not all theory, it’s all actionable and Jeff makes it very easy to take action with the handouts and spreadsheets.


The biggest thing that the Agency Jumpstart Course saved me from was instead of entering into a partnership with another freelancer, I decided to remain independent. Based on what I learned from the course, and the personal feedback I got from Jeff, I broke off that relationship amicably. It saved me from making irreversible mistakes with my business. That alone was worth a lot of money that I could have wasted in the future.

And if you are worried about the investment, this course can easily save you tens of thousands of dollars of mistakes in the future. Depending on how big those mistakes are, it could even be hundreds of thousands of dollars. I feel confident in saying that it can save you tens of thousands of dollars over just a few years.
