You’re smart.

Why aren’t you making agency sales then?

Lessons from 500+ DMs...

THREAD
All my DMs have the same excuses

So instead of reply to them 1 by 1

I am going to get rid of them in one thread

So people can stop complaining.

LETS GO
1 - “English isn’t my first language”

It’s not mine either.

I still have an outbound outreach agency.

It’s based on effective communication in English.

Thing is you don’t have to have the best English.

You just have to make people confident in you.
2 - “I’m not good at selling”

If you think that, you probably just need more practice.

The way you asked your parents to get what you want when younger.

Convincing friends to do things.

That’s all selling.

With a little more practice, you’ll be amazing.
3 - “I’m worried I can’t get results”

Work for free.

Build up a portfolio.

Eventually you’ll learn and get killer results.

That’s when you start charging.

Simple.
4 - “I don’t live in the US”

Neither do I.

You have the internet.

Location isn’t important anymore.

You can send a message to someone anywhere in the world and it will be with them in seconds.

Not living in the US is a silly excuse.
5 - “I’ve never ran a business”

If everybody thought like this no one would have a business.

If you complain about having no experience, but don’t go and get experience, you are dumb.

LOL
6 - “I don’t have time”

I study advanced Computer Science Engineering at University.

Still managed to build a 6+ figure agency & this account.

And after all of this, I still got time.

You do have time. A lot of it.

Manage your life or get managed by it.
7 - “The Market is too Competitive”

I used to think this about cold email.

Truth is:

The market isn’t saturated, your offer is.

You need to find ways to differentiate your offer.

Supply something better and the world opens up.
8 - “I don’t want to sacrifice my life for this maybe working”

Video games are fun, spending time with friends is fun.

But what’s even more fun is being super financially secure and being top 1% of wealth for everybody in the world.
9 - “I’m too young”

No you’re not.

I’m 18.

Here’s last month's revenue.

It’s on my Moms account because I still don’t have one.
10 - “The Agency World is Boring”

Winners in any industry stick things out before and after trends.

The people who chase the next big thing will always lose.

Why?

Because they never focus long enough to actually make progress.
11 - “It’s safer to have a job”

When you interview at companies you are already selling yourself.

You just stop at the first sale, and sell your time.

With an Agency you can sell a service again again and again.
12 - “I don’t have enough money to start”

I started with zero.

With the internet, I built up money from NOTHING.
