To all those who are doing a design agency as a monthly retained service, or a dev agency as a monthly retained service, How has it been going? What has been your strategy to get clients? Would love to know your thoughts and processes. Thanks

- Cold emails: Find directory of your potential clients, scrape their emails & start mailing them. Don’t directly sell, ask if they would be interested. - Cold DMs: Works well on LinkedIn - Build personal brand: Show your expertise in consulting, build trust and authority. Inbound leads will come eventually - Offer Lead Magnets: Once you build a following. Offer something for free (e-book, checklist) in return of their emails. Nurture them to convert to your buyers There’s a lot more! 💬 You can dm me on X/ Twitter to learn more :)

Running a dev agency on a monthly retainer has its ups and downs. The key is setting clear expectations from the start. As for acquiring clients, networking in niche forums and attending industry-specific events have been gold mines for us. Authentic relationships make all the difference!
