350 - How to Launch a Web Design Business (and Get Clients Fast) with Alexia Lynn

Web Design Business with Josh Hall

I don’t know about you…but I didn’t officially “launch” my web design business when I got started. I just kind of fumbled through starting my freelance journey. But if I were starting today, I would put much more effort and emphasis on creating an official “business launch.”
Now to the big question…how do you launch a web business successfully? i.e. Get clients fast?
Well, my guest in this podcast chat, Alexia Lynn launched her web design business in June of 2024 and got 3 new clients in her first 2 weeks after her amazing launch. So I can’t think of anyone better to learn from!
Alexia went ALL OUT for her launch and it’s paid off in a big way in just a few short months. And today, she’s pulling the curtain back on exactly what she did, step by step.
We cover:

• How she got her business ready in order to “launch with confidence”
• What marketing channels she decided to use
• How she built anticipation for her big launch
• How replying to comments kept her launch posts top of feed for weeks
• And even though it was a success, what she would do differently

If you enjoy hearing what worked for Alexia but would love a more step-by-step, checklist guide for your own launch plan…you’re in luck! She’s made her launch plan available FOR FREE at https://visualvibedesign.com/designer-launch-plan
Big thanks to Alexia for sharing everything she’s done in the first phase of her journey. Whether you’re preparing to launch your own web biz or you’re an established web designer looking for a revenue boost, you can use these strategies as well!
