$1K in one weekend 😳

I wish that were the whole story.

But, the reality is that it took much longer.

Try 60 days for $1K to close in one weekend.

A little less flashy, but much more accurate…

So how did we put ourselves in that position?

Let me share…

Referrals go a long way

I often talk about the power of relationships, and this is a perfect example of why they are so critical.

Over 60% of our earned revenue has come from a single relationship.

A relationship that started with my first startup five years ago.

One of our new clients who closed this weekend came from that very same connection.

Referrals are one of the most effective ways to generate business, especially when you’re a young company.

Because people want to work with people they can trust.

Threads for the Win! 🎉

One of the clients that closed this weekend was a connection I made on Threads…

There is a thriving community of business owners and decision-makers there.

They are actively looking for opportunities and partnerships.

I have another client in the pipeline who came from Threads as well…

If you’re not there already, check it out.

It’s a great place to build in public and establish authority.

Establishing trust first

Both of these clients took over 60 days to close officially.

It required many conversations, follow-ups, and alignment on expectations. 

Consistently providing value, and helping them clarify their needs BEFORE signature built the trust necessary to close the deal.

That’s how we sell at TeachOne. We take the time to understand our potential clients’ businesses, processes, and needs deeply.

That level of understanding and trust doesn’t happen overnight.

It takes patience and is a critical component of any deal-making process.

Want seeds can you plant today? 

• Relationships built before the deal arrives.

• Consistently showing up in places like Threads and LinkedIn.

• Patience and commitment to providing value to the consumer FIRST. 

If you’re in the early stages, don’t rush the process.

Focus on relationships, visibility, and consistency.

That way you can build something that is built to last.

That being said…
