How we did a DR to get our first 6 clients
We obtained a list of all the gyms in our area from Google Maps through Fiverr. Surprisingly, many gyms had cell phone numbers listed. Our original plan was to cold call them, but with all the cell phone numbers available, we decided to run a DR instead. Here are the steps we followed: 1. We added the list to GHL (GoHighLevel). 2. We sent a message asking, "Do you accept new members?" (Of course, they do 😉). 3. We waited for a reply. If positive, we proceeded to the next step. 4. We sent a follow-up text: "I'm inquiring because I'd like to bring you 15-30 new members in the next 30 days. This service is completely free. I'll handle the follow-up and acquisition costs. In return, I only ask for a short interview afterward and for you to consider a longer-term collaboration. Would you be interested in a brief call? If you prefer not to receive messages, please send 'STOP'. Kind regards, Ashley." (Note: Consider adapting the wording a bit as the original is in Dutch.) 5. We sent a follow-up text with a link to a YouTube video of a previous interview, if available: "Here's an interview with [Gym Name], where we secured 63 appointments in 13 days." This strategy successfully secured our first six clients!"
