The Transition to a Fiver Platform?

Trena ramp up revenue on the on the agency side. The idea is that we won't take clients off a fiver, because that's obviously against of service. We're only just kind of still in the beginning stages of starting our sales strategy. Right now we're going down the route of doing hyper pers ized emales.

talking about that transition, ecause it seems to be somewhat common in that ocamo to use a platform, whether it's five or whether it's amazon, whether it's even you tue to a certain extent, like using these, like many search engines to validate and get social proof and build a portfolio, and you'll get your confidence and even start to build your team up. And then try to drag people off the platform. Not necessarily that youwould want to do thato from fiver customers, but like, in terms of commerce on amazon, like, i can include a little in my packages that we'll get tenper sent off when you go directly through our website instead. I don't knov amazon likes that either. But like trying to not be so reliant on these other platforms. Cad year, one algorithm change away from from disaster in some cases. Talk to me about this transition. And trena ramp up revenue on the on the solos are on the agency side. Yes,
Speaker 1
for sure. So the idea is that, you know, we won't take clients off a fiver, because that's obviously against of service. So, anyone who finds us in fiver, we stay inside fiver. You know, on the very rare occasion, well, get people who have found es in fiver reach out to me, like one linked in, for example, and i'm not going to deny their requests, you know. So anyone who comes in on fiveer pretty much stays in fiver. We don't take people off the platform. But as for wizard of content, you know, this is exactly where the difficult part is. You know, we're only just kind of still in the beginning stages of starting our sales strategy. And we do have a sales consultant who's been, you know, gearing us up for 20 22 and, you know, outlining some message ten plates and creating some by porsonas. And we have all that nail down, which is amazing. Soe really, we're ready to go, basically. But the problem is now is figuring out how we're going to get people to trust us when they've never heard of us for because obviously, with fiver, you have all these amazing reviews, and basically just have like a much more reliable platform. But off of that, you know, we can just be another another sales emerfor them. And we don't want to be there. So we're kind of trying to think of some more innovative ways that we can engage people. And right now we're kind of going down the route of doing hyper pers ized emales. And i guess with that we'd be growing at a slower rate. But i think it's more important to get it right, rather than focus on scaling, scaling, scaling to the point where your delivering, call it bad quality work, or alternatively, not finding the right clients that you want to be working with.
