Recently, I met a guy named Brett. Brett makes $1.3M/year with a one-man design service (itâs called DesignJoy). Heâs got no employees. He takes zero meetings. And he works only 5 hours a day. (oh - and did I mention he did it while he had a full time job?) His story really got me thinking⦠Most agencies doing $1M+ have at least 10 people on the payroll, right? And most agencies also require sales calls, proposals, tedious back-and-forths with clients, and chasing down clients to get invoices paid, right? As we all know, agencies can be a massive logistical headache to run. So⦠what does Brett do differently? The answer: he productized his services. Sounds fancy, right? Not really. It just means that instead of charging by the hour, or by the project, he standardized his services and sold them as a product. - Itâs the same service for everyone.
- Itâs all paid upfront.
- The work is simple: Client sends a request async, and he gets it done. (he charges $5,000 / $8,000 per month, specifically) And the result? - He has no tedious back-and-forths with clients.
- He has no client proposals.
- He has no pricing negotiations.
- He has no employee management headaches. This allows him to focus on delivering more value for his customers and generating more revenue for himself. Which is f*ing brilliant! So⦠is Brett just a lucky genius? Or are there more people like him out there? Well, I spent hundreds of hours researching this. And the answer is: thereâs a shit ton of people making millions with this simple business model. I found 104 of the most successful productized services, broke down all of their businesses, and put them into a 40-page report and database for you. Here are a couple that blew my mind: - Brad started a college application coaching service that makes $4M per year.
- Jaredâs biz grosses over $15M by organizing company retreats.
- Jess charges e-commerce owners $7,000/mo for a super niche service. (And there are 101 more) And Iâve been studying them so I could learn: - How did they go from agency/freelance to productized service?
- Whatâs their pricing strategy?
- How did they get their first clients?
- What are the most lucrative niches/services being productized? I found the answers to all those questions, and more.
