One of the benefits of being a web designer is your option to build recurring revenue. As a WordPress web designer, I learned that one of the best ways to do this was to offer a hosting and maintenance plan. Or “care plan” as it’s more commonly referred to these days.For years, it was my assumption that if you use self-hosted platforms like SquareSpace, WixStudio, Webflow, Showit, etc then you can't offer care plans because there's no plugins to update or advanced security to monitor. But I was wrong...you CAN offer care plans (even if you're NOT using WordPress!!)A great example of this is Eleanor Mayrhofer, a SquareSpace web designer and member of my community Web Designer Pro™.On a recent weekly coaching call, Eleanor and I chatted together about how she could build up more recurring income as a SquareSpace designer and we came up with offering an “SOS” plan.SOS stands for "Strategy, Optimization & Support"Eleanor launched her SOS plan and literally overnight generated a few hundred dollars per month of recurring revenue with this plan and her clients are loving it! She’s on the podcast this week pulling back the curtain on her plan!We cover:What she includes in her SOS planHow she prices itHow she sold it to existing clients and got several signupsHow her SOS plans work alongside her growth/marketing plansHow she’s protecting her time with this new service by going slow and steady with promoting it Get all links and resources mentioned along with a full transcription at:https://joshhall.co/331View all Web Design Business Podcasts with show notes and full transcriptions at: https://joshhall.co/podcastGet my quote, contract & invoice templates (for free) with a 7-day trial of 17hats, the CRM I've been using for over 10 years!👉 Start my 7-day free trial
