How to Win Web Design Clients by Mastering Your Project Process

If I were to ask you, “what sets apart a really professional freelance web designer from a newbie?” What would you say?

Some people might say it’s, “all about the quality of the design!”

Others might tout the web designer’s ability to communicate their ideas or hit deadlines.

But, none of those things really separate the pro’s from the rookies.

So, what is a tell tale sign of a truly professional freelance web designer?

It’s all about their process.

A real pro will have a process for completing projects that they have built over time. This process will walk customers through a step-by-step system and get the absolute best outcome.

What Having a Project Process Can Do for You as a Web Designer

The best part of having a killer project process is that it’s one of the MOST EFFECTIVE WAYS to win clients.

And, there’s an added bonus of using the process to keep the project on track. It’s guard rails for you and your clients.

It can save you from scope creep and missed deadlines alike.

This isn’t something that’s just a good idea that you should get to later. It’s something that is important to implement right now at any stage in your freelance web design career.

Thankfully, Michal Janda is back with us this week to go over how he teaches freelancers to sell their web design services with their process.

Dialing in your process is something that can take a while as a freelance web designer BUT it will be well worth the effort.

Creating a Process and Delegating It

Then once you have a process, you can hire other people and train them to follow your process. Your work doesn’t suffer once you’ve created a process and delegated it to people you’ve hired.

It’s as if YOU are the one doing the work. ONLY, you don’t have to be the one doing the work ☺️
