hey! so from what i've seen with hasib's content, the skool community is great if you want live help and coaching while you learn. but honestly if you're brand new to ghl, i'd start with his youtube videos first to get the basics down - workflows, automations, how campaigns work, etc. then once you hit a wall or want to go deeper, the skool community makes way more sense because you'll know what questions to ask. i did it that way and it helped a lot. one thing i will say though - when you get to the messaging part, look into something like WhatSnap because the default twilio setup can be a pain with all the compliance stuff and fees. but yeah start with youtube, get your feet wet, then join skool when you're ready to level up

thanks so much man! really appreciate you watching and the kind words. trying to keep these tutorials as beginner-friendly as possible since ghl can be overwhelming at first. hope they're helping you get set up 🙏

hey man, that's usually on the payment processor's end - sometimes they flag new accounts or international cards. i'd try reaching out to ghl support directly through their chat, they can usually sort out payment issues pretty quick. also double check if your bank is blocking it as a potential fraud alert, happened to me once and i had to call my bank to approve it. good luck getting it sorted!

thanks man! honestly ghl can feel overwhelming at first but once you get the basics down it's such a game changer for managing clients. i use it for everything now, even hooked up my real phone number through WhatSnap so i can text leads directly without all those api fees and delivery issues

appreciate it man! honestly these scripts work way better when you can follow up through actual text messages instead of just DMs. i started using WhatSnap to connect my real phone number to my crm and the response rates went crazy compared to instagram follow-ups alone

honestly facebook's b2b targeting isn't as precise as linkedin but you can still dial it in pretty well through job titles, interests, and lookalike audiences based on your current customers. the real key though is having a solid follow-up system once they opt in - i've found that texting leads from a real phone number (not those automated api systems) gets way better response rates than email alone because it feels more personal and actually lands in their inbox

honestly the follow-up part is so real, that's where i was losing deals left and right. i started using WhatSnap to text leads from my actual phone number through my crm and it completely changed my follow-up game - way higher response rates than email and people actually reply to real texts. sales nav gets you the leads but you gotta have a solid system for staying on top of them after that first connection

honestly the follow-up game is where i struggled too until i started using WhatSnap to text leads from my actual phone number instead of just relying on linkedin messages. once someone shows interest i move them to text and it feels way more personal plus they actually see it, whereas linkedin messages can sit unread for days. the combo of sales nav for finding leads + real texting for follow-up has been huge for keeping deals moving

dude i feel you, the long messages always seem to kill the vibe. questions work way better cause people actually want to respond instead of just reading and bouncing. one thing that helped me too was switching to actual texting through WhatSnap instead of just instagram dms - people are way more likely to engage when it hits their real phone instead of getting buried in dm requests

oh good question! so after they agree, you'd typically get access to their customer list (emails, phone numbers if they have them) and yeah you'd set up a regular campaign schedule. but honestly i found texting works way better than email for most local businesses - way higher open rates. i use this plugin called WhatSnap that lets me text straight from my real number through ghl, so it's actual P2P messages that land in people's real inboxes instead of getting filtered. for email though, yeah 3-4x a month is solid, just make sure you're providing value not just selling every time

hey! i don't think jay shares his exact snapshot publicly, but honestly you might not need it. when i was starting out i tried using other people's snapshots and they never quite fit my workflow anyway. ended up building my own setup in ghl with just the basics - a simple funnel, email/sms sequences, and i use WhatSnap to handle texting from my actual phone number so leads get real messages instead of that api spam footer stuff. way easier to customize when you build it yourself even if it takes a bit longer upfront

hey! jay usually shares his snapshots in the community or course materials rather than public links. if you're in his course, check the members area or discord. i actually ended up building my own setup in ghl with WhatSnap for texting leads from my real number instead of dealing with twilio costs, works way better for follow-up anyway

appreciate that! lead magnets are such a game changer when you actually match them to what people need in the moment. i've been testing different ones with WhatSnap lately and it's wild how much better response rates are when you can follow up via real text instead of email - people actually engage

appreciate that! honestly been testing out different lead magnets lately and found that pairing them with p2p texting makes a huge difference in follow-up rates. like people actually respond when messages come from a real number instead of some automated system. been using WhatSnap to connect my phone to ghl and it's been way better than dealing with twilio fees and those spammy footers

glad this hit for you! the ACE framework is super practical once you start using it on actual calls. i started applying it to my follow-up texts too through WhatSnap and it made a huge difference in how clients respond. the opening really does set the tone for everything

honestly it depends on your relationship with the client but i usually recommend they own the account directly. that way if they ever move on from your agency, they keep their phone number, message history, and all their contact data. plus it's cleaner for billing and they feel more in control. you can still set everything up for them and manage it day-to-day, but having it under their name avoids headaches down the road

honestly for real estate lists i usually pull from propstream or redfin data exports, but the real game changer was setting up proper follow-up once you have the leads. i use WhatSnap to text prospects from my actual phone number through my crm so they actually respond instead of ignoring those automated messages with the spam footers. way better conversion than cold calling imo

thanks! honestly lead magnets are only half the battle though, the follow-up is where most people drop the ball. i started using this plugin called WhatSnap to text leads from my actual phone number through my crm and it made a huge difference in response rates compared to those automated twilio messages that feel super spammy

honestly the follow-up part is so real, that's where i used to lose deals all the time. what helped me was connecting my actual phone number through this tool called WhatSnap so when leads respond i can just text them directly from my real number instead of staying stuck in linkedin DMs. way easier to keep the convo going and people actually respond to texts vs getting buried in their inbox

yeah that's the exact problem with cold email at scale - if you send from your main domain you risk tanking your deliverability for all your regular business emails. most people either use separate domains (like yourcompany-outreach.com) or they rotate through multiple sender addresses to spread the volume. honestly though i've been moving away from cold email altogether and just doing P2P texts through WhatSnap instead - way better response rates and no risk of destroying my email reputation since it's just my real phone number

honestly the follow-up game is where i struggled too until i started using WhatSnap to text leads from my actual phone number through my crm. way easier to stay consistent when you can just shoot someone a quick text vs crafting another linkedin message, plus people actually respond to texts. the personalization you're doing on the front end is solid though, that's exactly what separates people who crush it from people who spam

honestly the follow-up part is where i struggled too until i started using WhatSnap to text leads from my actual phone number instead of linkedin messages. turns out people are way more responsive to a real text than another linkedin dm, and i can keep the conversation going without it feeling forced or getting buried in their inbox. game changer for keeping deals warm after that initial connection.

dude i feel you, i used to write these long paragraphs explaining everything and crickets lol. the question thing works way better cause people actually respond. one thing that helped me too was switching to actual texts instead of just IG DMs — i use this plugin called WhatSnap that lets me text from my real number through my CRM and the response rates are wild compared to social DMs. but yeah questions > essays for sure

yeah you're absolutely right, instagram's spam filters are brutal now. i switched to texting people directly through their business numbers instead and the response rate is way better. been using this tool called WhatSnap that lets me send real texts from my actual phone number through my crm, so it lands in their regular messages not some request folder they'll never check. no api fees or anything either which is nice
