Far_Fault_5899 · reddit · 2026-09-01
A developer with no existing network shares their strategy for landing automation agency clients:
Core Strategy:
- Offers a "free automation library" with 5 simple Make.com templates and video tutorials that agencies can set up in 2-3 minutes.
- Introduces the paid "Agency Growth OS" at the end of videos.
- Outreach: Uses cold email and cold calling to pitch the free library first, not forcing a sales meeting.
Service Scope: Automates lead qualification, CRM, proposals, onboarding, internal ops, and follow-ups. The author guarantees delivery within 20 days.
