The thing I got from Chris in the last few videos is something I never ever thought of (which is so simple yet it never crossed my mind). Make the client money or make the client happy and that's what will make you money.
Like the old saying with a wife, "happy wife, happy life". Same thing with the clients lol, "happy client, happy life". Dumb analogy but also slightly humorous! Cheers!
Sell money.
@@thefutur now teach us how to tell the client that what they want isn't what will generate income. 😓
@@thearabicdpeveryone knows that clients are idiots (or "mostly uneducated on that particular matter"), except when they're the client themselves.
You don't know what you don't know, after all.
@@thearabicdpif you make the choice to allow those types of clients into your life you are asking for twice the work, half the pay, and a guarantee that the product you produce will never be good enough.
This is what I needed to see today. I just finished a value proposition for my ideal client and I was feeling nervous about launching the new marketing campaign but this video has me energized and ready to go! Thanks Chris and company 😊
I have been looking on your channel for this video for 5 days. Finally, it's here. Thank you.
Enjoy it
The breakdown of customer acquisition strategies here is spot on. One advanced tip is integrating a multi-touchpoint strategy.
yes
I think i should watch this video on repeat a few times. Thanks!
Please do!
Brilliant video! Chris Do is my role model in the creative industry...he is so knowledgeable and so good at these teaching / coaching sessions! Such valuable info for all creative professionals! Keep up the good work Chris and the Futur team! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much.
Emphasis on the pain points and the missed opportunities of not getting the thing taken care of. Excellent session!
Thank you
This was a great exercise. Thank you for letting us sample what it is you do in your program.
Love your videos. The "stop and think" critial thinking way of teaching is very educational for someone like me. I have to stop your videos from time to time for me to ask myself those questions and apply it to myself. I want to start my own business, its just an idea but i havent thought about how I can market myself. Really makes me think about it
Awesome Masterclass as always! One thing that I learned about getting your first 10 customers is starting off with the leads first before they come customers as obvious as it sounds. Your leads can literally be anything, even if you do not have an audience.
They could be the people in your phone contacts list to the personal folks that follow you on social media. Or even your LinkedIn connections, you would be surprised at how supportive a closer network of friends and family can be. Cheers!
Great response! I totally agree about having very organic leads.
Watching Chris is a gift, he has a way of conveying the most effective strategies he knows- so quickly, it is amazing.
I really love these videos, Chris. keep up the good work.
Thanks, will do!
This workshop/video was 🔥. Thanks you!
Haha I asked for the BIV video on the last one and here it is!
Thanks!
I have been watching you for a while, I see that you can help me. I am a business owner working on growing my business! 👍😁
Thank you for all the great content brother
Chris, super interesting to see a different take on Alex Hormozi POV, very helpful to deconstruct it your own way.
I'm going to watch part 2 right now (80 minutes, that's too generous 👍)
I'm so grateful to watch this series of content that I always have to send them to the people I really do care about their success, It's just so good
Thank you
Thanks Chris for the great video you had done❤
Bro, the FIRE ALARMS, SMOKE DETECTORS was on point, as my apartments just tested the fire system for an hour interrupted my day sleeping so I can work Swing/grave shift for 16 hours to continue to build my Beach Resort Hotel in the Philippines! Lack of sleep today but I’m motivated I’m hungry! LFG!!!!
Omg 🤯🤯🤯 the pain avoid part you discuss. Wow, wow, I don't comment on things often, but when you said that, I went, omg, that's that's the answer I've been looking for, just wow. I am so blessed to have found this channel. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Glad to hear. Welcome to the Futur
Great video. Simple and easy to implement but, very powerful in terms of building stronger relationships and increasing your revenue.
This was great content. A lot of persons struggle with a particular area of businesses. Some persons its sales, marketing etc. Great breakdown.
Super helpful. Thank you for this content. Loving the format of this series
Glad to hear it!
That was amazing! I’d never thought of marketing that way. Thank you
This is gold 🔥
That's me, with the 3 Cameras, you are the man, thank yous, Awesome Advice.
Pimp my business therapy, the show we wish Undercover Boss or Shark Tank could be.
gold as always
Great content! I’m a systems strategist (so not a creative entrepreneur), but your methods are still so relevant and helpful! Keep up the good work!
Great to hear!
Love this series. Remember me of the old days with Melinda and how Chris mentored her to break from client work to consulting
I'll be doing more of these mentor series.
I love dis .....This is literally one of most educative content I have ever watched and learned from ......Thank you!!! @futur
You’re very welcome
I like these videos !
awesome info, really help to rethink the parts of the business you think you know about.
BTW, it works for different culture zones, not only Western
Thank!
fantastic is the first word that always comes to my mind after watching these live coaching, and so far this is my best trio Chris1, chris2 and Mo
Wow, thank you!
Chris1 and Mo are more like veterans in the game, which makes it easy to show us that it's possible, while Chris2 is more like some of us in the audience 😅
@@thefutur we owe you all our respect 🫡
@@YourBuddyRio facts, that makes it more relatable everyone can find themselves in that discussion
Positioning yourself as a provider of video production to a company that doesn't have that capability may encounther the problem that the company doesn't have the experience to generate or implement a video content strategy -> NO ROI. As a result, they will struggle to justify the relationship's cost. However, teach them to fish with the tools and material you provide will truly make you an asset in their business.
One of the many useful and important things I understand you to be saying about strategy reframing was said by Stephen Covey and Tom Peters which was “a satisfied need does not motivate.” Thanks for the reminder. btw you had me at I paid to much for a carwash… Cheers and much gratitude 🙏
Well said!
A good book for hopeful entrepreneurs: "The E-Myth Revisited"
Understanding the technician vs the entrepreneur
35:37 And I think Mo productions is doing it for you am I right! 😂🤟🏻❤️
14:30 I was dying here 😂 I couldn’t for the life of me figure out what starts with C and rhymes with comment
Thank you, man. Awesome, as usual. Chris, may I kindly require a video about creative sales on EBay, how to make them effectively. Btw, thanks for referring to Rework book, it’s really good.
Don’t know anything about that.
@@thefutur I got it, no problem. Reading another book you’ve recommended, 100 million leads by Alex Hormozi, it’s completely insane. Thank you.
$5. I like this structure that allows me to solve for x. If I'm in a rush I'll buy the cheat book premium
14:00 I knew it, its content
🎉content🎉
Y'all need to throw a peak limiter on the audio, MASSIVE spike in volume at 13:50
Chris can you please write bigger so i can see an engage more so that the idea can be clearer and stickier. Thanks master🙏🏽
The board is too small. I will write bigger next time.
not me on the sidelines at 13:00 shouting "COOONTEEENT"
☠️"convict"
10/10 for creativity tho
22:35 so wait a minute! 👀 The thing is to at the end of that quiz what people need to do is put like a CTA or image to say what’s the best offer for them? 🤔 Like a journey based on their choices like some interactive netflix movie 🍿?
This is gold as always, thank you! Any chance you could share Chris's production company and youtube channel. Would love to see what he's producing :)
Blind.com
Thanks so much! Does Chris Franklin have a website too?
Thanks Mr Do! What would you think about offering discounts to existing clients when they refer you to another client?
sure. discount based on future work. could work.
ooohhhh lol content!
23:29 maybe at that time I’m dead 😂🤣
Nothing rhymes with "content." 😂
Why am I screaming at the screen - CONTENT!!!?? 😂
35:29 📝👀
CONVICT MUSIC!!
Ex convict hahahah I loved this.
❤
Moment and content don't rhyme in Chris's defense lol
Thank you. haha.
Nonsense, hehe
This was great, thanks🫶🏾‼️
26:52 they hate to feel that someone is trying to sell them something, the minute they fell like there’s something behind they’re out. Just my POV here ✨
‘Moment’ though??? 🤔😆
Omg... 😂
Comment??
Convict???
It's content!!!
24:36 Mo: “I don’t exist.” 👻😅
Hey looks like Jon jones from ufc came to Chris for a master class.
Now that would be fun.
I wish i got the permission to make youtubes for you whiles i make notes of your info😅
You can make clips
12:59 What is Mo doing? 👀😅😁😎
If anyone can help direct me to any video/workshop where Chris discusses product base businesses please do??👉🏼👈🏼 I always watch service based business vids and try to work from there but I might be missing some… thanks
What’s the product?
@@thefutur handmade jewelry
The idea of requesting things by chasing the No is interesting. It's the opposite of what we often hear, to look for the Yes in order to trigger a positive willingness from the prospect. I guess the game is to be able to ask Yes informative questions and No request ones. Right ?
Chris, please write smaller, my bifocals aren't challenged enough 🤣💕
You have to be there.
Amazing videos like how you mentioned there was a diamond in 4:30 I would also like you to describe it with steps like Step 1: marketing/sales. Step 2: closing or onboarding Step 3: (action)do what you have to do also thank you for teaching us
38:02 how the *ck do you do that? Please I need a video explaining that right there 🤯 cuz yeah I can get people from South America to edit but production 🧐 and paying like it was one person! What’s that business model?
24:59 Chris inside: 😆 (no way he’s at 75%)
Convict 💀💀💀💀💀
🤣
My only client doesn't want to refer me because he said I'll have less time for him.....
Create an agency and let him know you have other people who will work on the actual work and that would give you free time
Omg... 😂
Comment ??
Convict???
I think negative comments should be left on here.... it's all a bit obvious. Don't you think?
They are. We don’t remove critical comments. Just racist and sexist comments.
29:25 I’m sure the people in charge of the event wants to see a happy end for the wedding soooooo no mistakes on the show, don’t bother with the camera, don’t be weirdo with a camera….and on and on and on!
what the heck is the word lmao
Dont recomend this channel
Haha. Why not?
@@thefutur , few things. 1. Dfferent values. You recently in one interview criticized Elon Musk in advantage for one nation. You lookef like propagandist.
2. You learn very slow, like speaking abilities. Rarely learn feom fenomenal guest you have.
These two makes you bad example.
3. You, Chris Do, look like weak character.
Bad example for world, except as designer and talker about brand where you are good.
3.
Aaa you deleted my response.
40:57 you’re a legend ❤️🚀🪬 god bless you for keep creating content like this! 🎆
35:08 🔥🔥🔥
19:40 Cognitive Dissonance is another pov on this topic.
Chris²
