And… the preview for this video it says “I messed up”. Dude you are killing it! Whether you intended that headline, I think you could have said “growing pains, and we honored our guarantee”, or something to that effect. I don’t think you messed up, you just found out another way to deliver exceptional customer service, and demonstrate your strong work ethic, credibility, and accountability. All exceptional values that any client would want to be associated with!

I'm surprised your client requested for the refund though. Usually for me at least, they say: "oh don't worry about the guarantee." Because at the end of the day you made them money. What you can do instead is one month with the guarantee, and if you don't fulfill that, you say at the monthly call: "I suppose we're not a good fit moving forward since we couldn't deliver on our guarantee". They'll say "oh but I want to keep this relationship going! Is there any way we can do this guarantee thing again for next month?". Then, you can just say: "Actually, clients who continue with us operate on a retainer basis"... something along those lines. I'm not an expert but have some experience. What do you think, Juan?

Transparency and honesty is invaluable congrats Juan you are ahead of ninety-nine percent of people

To avoid losing that guarantee by a slim margin on your next clients, make sure you run the ads from your own business manager. That way, the client can't see the ad spend. If you need to use some of your own money for the ad spend, you will keep some of your money and still hit the guarantee.

Your transparancy is so motivating

Amazing video brother thank you for the bangers! Where is the best place to learn how to build perfect backend systems and processes to make everything simplistic and effective?

Hey Juan, you are inspiring us by your transparency. You are not like fake gurus out there. Keep growing. I have 2 questions if you like to answer. 1. How many clients you got till now? Have you got any from cold email? 2. How much should I charge per month for Facebook ads to get client easily in start for remodeling niche? Would love to hear back from you.

I'm watching your videos and literally everything you're saying word for word with the ad performance is what I'm experiencing as well. I had the same problem then launched a video ad and things went up. Make sure to check your frequency on the ads manager. Once it gets to over 2-2.3 ads stop performing well. Also, if you offer a guarantee, make sure you have an adequate budget to make it a reality. Because a big reason why you don't reach the guarantee is if the client didn't spend an adequate amount to reach it. Now you know more about how much a client needs to spend in order to reach the desired numbers.

In one of your videos you personified the issues with not being able to find anyone to sign or give you a chance and how much volume we have to do for prospecting, that's what Im living right now. What extremely stresses me is not knowing how long it will take. I have quantifiable objections that aren't being met so had to put them on hold, going through every damn day the family struggling in some way because of finances. I should say Im going to sign a client this month but I don't know what the exact plan is. Done multiple methods but they don't seem to work at all. I have other methods in mind but I don't know how to do them well yet

Awesome video. This is the reason why many agencies have VAs, who call every single lead, as an automated text is not enough. Every 4-5th should convert into an appointment, if that's not the case, something might be up with the follow up. Also, you might want to try an AD into Calendly link streight (clients calendar), that eliminates bleed process, also you can incorporate stripe charges, workflows to guarentee they show up.

Hey Juan, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I loved your videos. I was wondering if I could help you edit your videos and also make highly engaging shorts for you to grow your business.

Same exact thing for me. Text response after lead form comes has been working better for us than calling. If they want to talk right then and there we live transfer them to the owners. We are in the solar niche for context so may be a little different.

That’s interesting, I’ve heard a lot of people do better calling but maybe for solar niche it’s different! 💯

Everything is predictable if you factor in all the variables necessary. It can seem unpredictable because you are not aware of the severity of certain variables, so factor them in. For example, time ads run compared to when people are most interactive with ads. Location the ads are displayed to, etc. Good luck bro!

For our agency we do both a follow up sequence and we call the leads that need that little extra push so I would say implement a great sequence and call when needed.

Great job, Juan I love watching your journey, I hope I can do it too. Just wondering about your service fee,… so you offered a refund for month one, and then charged for month two with the same guarantee? So if you succeed you’ll essentially get paid for one month, but provide two months of service? Just wondering, thinking of cash flow projections and how much money I should expect to start my agency, and not run out of money. Cheers, and congrats, you are a true inspiration!

Would defintely say that calling leads are the best strategy!

Hi! I was wondering how much you charge your clients and how do you justify the price without showing testimonials ( if you don't mind me asking )? Did you tell your clients explicitly that you are just starting out? Thanks!

Hey Juan - can i check with you, for your guarantee of 15 appointments booked: 1) Does that that come with sales conversion at the appointment as well? 2) Was there a set budget that you were given by your client, i.e. you have a min. cost per appointment that you cannot exceed? Thank you and continue killing it!

Hey Juan, I want to get practice running ads aswell so I can have something to show to potential clients. I was thinking of running a dropshipping store like you did. Just have a couple questions for you. What supplier did you use? (Because of the long shipping times) And I’m also in Canada like you so did you get a sole proprietor license just for a practice store?

Hey, how did you find your contractors/ people who make your ads? I’m struggling to find people explaining where to find them and how to get the right one :/

Your being too nice. End of the day, clients don't care about what you do, just get the results. You brought in a positive month, why did you refund??? You 4x'd their investment in 1 month. Don't mix client satisfaction with being taken the p*ss out of. Business is all about authority, especially B2B. If you show signs of weakness, they'll walk all over you. Gotta make em need you bro. Keep it up tho!

Hi Juan, I hope you're doing well. Great video! I just wanted to know how you fund the ads? Do you use the money from the service fee and if so how do you refund your client if the money went to ad spend? This is something I'm still struggling to understand, especially if an agency owner has no collateral to fund re-funds out of pocket...

Hey Juan I have a question Do you run ads for your clients everyday throughout the entire month? if so how much do you spend on ads that whole month?

Love your videos! I have a question: Does your client have a booking page on their web page? If they have, can't you just track how many leads from you ads book a session through the booking page by using a facebook pixel?

I prefer you to use Convertions API Getaway. Easy and much more accurate rather than Pixel

you should check the country rules before you start calling leads, for example, I'm in the real estate niche and in British Colombia, you can't call leads unless you're a licensed assistant/ real estate agent, my client got a fine because he didn't know this. also I'm in Iman course too let me know if you want to jump on a call

I bought a course, and the course said you shouldn’t test or put new ad creatives in an adset that’s performing because it will put ur adset back into the learning phase. Which will hurt your overall adset performance because in the learning phase, Facebook’s algorithm doesn’t know what audience will like ur ad so everything becomes less optimized. Even if the adset wasn’t performing, u prolly made the adset go back into learning phase which hurt the overall performance of that adset even more

Did you first take the money in the beginning of the month and then refund it or you simply didn't charge them st any time?

Juan, how do you know the amount of $ you can spend from a clients account on ads? I was thinking about u and other other youtube smma creators and how people have guarantees for client aquisitions but like does that not depend on the amount of $ you spend on ads? I mean if you advertise with $20 a day and $100 a day its a huge difference since you reach so much more people.

mayby someone can expalin to me becasue i dont get it yet did you get creatives from the client i mean photos and vedios he prepared or you request him to do it in case he doesnt have any

No way I would have refunded that, you had awesome results
