Right when Claude dropped Opus 4.8, I landed another 500 AI website client. And because of that, I decided to build the entire website with this new model. And to my surprise, the entire project took me only an hour. And the client was blown away with the result as you can clearly see.
So in this video, I'm going to coach you through the entire process so you can get your first client, too. I'll start by showing you how to build a jaw-dropping website using Opus 4.8 quickly. Then I'll show you how I got the client. And third, you'll get the full breakdown of our sales call with the live recording. So you can get clients to trust you even if you've never done this before. So let's build a website that the clients will happily pay you $500 per hour for.
So first of all, we will build the website design as a first thing. To do that, we will use a website called Framer. This website is like a library of really really premium looking websites. If you're getting paid 500 bucks per hour, you must build a premium [ __ ]. And this is exactly what we're going to do.
Now, since the client wanted a website in real estate space, what we're going to do right now is that I'm going to search for real estate templates. And let me just see. Yeah, this one. This one. Yeah, this is the one I picked. This is very very lovely. Like look at this. Look at how awesome this is. Right. We're obviously not going to steal this template. We're just going to get inspired by it. And to get inspired by it and get AI to build it for us, we are going to use something called go full page plugin. The go full page plugin is completely for free. It's on Google store and it basically takes the entire screenshot of the website. so that AI then can clearly see what design direction you're basically looking for.
So, let's just click on the template. Make sure you load the entire page. That's super important because if you don't load it, the screenshot is going to be missing some elements because the page is not loaded yet. Now, what we're going to do, we're going to click this photo button, which is the go full page plugin. And as you can see, it's going to take screenshots of the entire page. And boom, we have the screenshot. Now, what we're going to do, just simply download the image.
Now, here comes the magic. The next thing that we're going to do is we are going to create a new folder on our desktop and name it real estate website. All right. Then we are going to get into cloud code. Open up this folder and we will select the folder that we just created. If you guys are asking why is this important, it is because Claude is going to be building that website inside this folder. Next thing we are going to do is we are going to click add new files and photos. Go to our downloads. get this template and now we will let it build this entire website for us by saying this prompt. So let me just record this and let's go.
So, so in the attachment I have attached a design of a landing page for a real estate company. And what I want you to do, I want you to basically replicate the exact same design with image placeholders because right now we don't have any images. And also the main purpose of this entire website is to book more appointments for that company. For the text, I want you to only create placeholder because I will be coming up with the copy later. And boom. I've included all the prompts in the entire workflows in the description in the video below. So if you want to get it, you can get it for free. Just click the link and you'll get it. voice.
As you can clearly see, it took us around 7 minutes. And look at how awesome this this website looks. Like, this is literally website done in 7 minutes. So, if you look at the actual website I built, it's got this sick background video, which makes it look super freaking premium. So, how do we actually build this? So, first of all, we want to get the video. Okay. So, if the client doesn't give it to you, just go to pixels.com, which is like a library of free photos and videos, and just type in real estate, you know, luxury. Let's see if it gives us something. Yo, I think this is so sick. Like, this would look so freaking sick, right? This video. Oh my god. Yes, this will look so sick. So, we will download this. And here is a very important thing. Make sure you download this in relatively low resolution because if you download it in 4K, the page is going to take forever to load and if pages take forever to load, people get pissed off. You know it from your own experience. So just download it from relatively low resolution. We don't want to like [ __ ] resolution. So I think this like SD 960 to 506 is perfect.
Now, what we are going to do next, we are going to put that background video on the website. So, we're going to click this plus button. We're going to click add files or videos. Um, we're just going to add it and we're going to type in the next prompt, which again, like I've said, I've included it in the description. So, this is absolutely amazing job. The next thing I want you to do is I have attached a background video for the website. And what I want you to do is I want you to put it on the hero section on the headline section as a background video. The most important thing is make sure to turn down the opacity so that the actual video is so that the actual headline is easily readable and easily accessible. Okay, we don't want to we don't want the video to override the headline and the buttons. Okay. So, please find an elegant way to make the video still look pretty, but also make sure the text stands out. Let's go.
Boys, look at this [ __ ]. This is insane. It took us less than a minute. And look at this. Look at how premium this website actually looks just by copy and pasting the video and saying the proper things to AI. Now, obviously, you will need to put the rest of the images on the website. And the way you do this is super simple. You just go through pixels, okay? And you just find relevant images for each one of these sections. And you just repeat the same process, but instead of saying video, you just say, "Hey, I attached an image. Please replace it in this section." And that's all that there's really to it.
Now the second step and the most important step is make cloth write the text for the website. And the way this works is the client gives you information about their business and then based on that you build a website with Opus 4.8 that books them more appointments. So what we are going to do right now is every single time you work with a client, they give you information about their business. Okay? What you just simply do, you ask them before working with them, hey, can you please give me more information about your business? Can you give me information about the company? Can you give me information about the services you offer? Can you give me information about what is the main problem that your customer has? And then they're going to give you a simple PDF or Google document that you are then going to simply copy and paste. I am going to copy and paste this into cloth and then what I'm just going to say is this.
Hey, the website looks absolutely stunning. What I have done right now is I have given you full information about the entire client's business that I'm making this website for. And what I want you to do is I want you to replace the placeholder copy on the website with a copy that put that makes people want to book an appointment with this company. Okay, specifically a private consultation with this real estate agent. As you can clearly see from the information about the business, the page should only make people book a call. That's the only purpose. Okay? Don't change the design. Just change the copy and make sure the copy is written in super simple way that a 15-year-old could understand, but it's also written in a tone that's premium, elegant, and speaks to our target audience who basically are rich people who want to buy luxury properties. And boom. Right. And then let's just copy it. Like I've said, all the prompts are in the link in the description. Okay, so
Okay, boys. Again, so freaking sick. Took us eight minutes. And look at this. We have a full copy, full text. I have gone through it. The page directs people to book a call. It's written very nicely. And yeah, you can see there is this booking form, right? The problem is the booking form doesn't actually work, right? Because if I put my name in there, my phone, it doesn't get sent anywhere. It must get sent somewhere. We need to ask our client for their booking form, okay? For the calendar that they're using to book appointments. And what you're going to do, you're simply going to ask them, can you please give me embed link for your calendar booking form?
So, let's just use my calendar as an example. So, we want to go in there and as you can clearly see embed on website, right? Then I'll just copy code. I'll get to cloud again [snorts] and I'm going to copy and paste this link and I'm just going to say this. Hey, this is so awesome. The copy looks really, really great. The the last thing that I want you to do is I want you to replace the call booking form with the actual real life existing form that I put inside this conversation. Okay, it's embed link for my calendar. While doing that, make sure that the width and the height is the same as the as the original form that you created by yourself. Okay? Don't touch anything else. Don't touch the main headline of this section. Don't touch the sub headline. Just replace the booking form. And that's pretty much it. And boom. Let's just wait a couple of minutes again. Sick.
1 minute later. You can clearly see the form is embedded and it actually will book the consultations properly. So just ask your client for a link. And if you don't have client and if you're building your portfolio, just make AI make up a you know good-looking form as it did before for me.
Now the last thing that we want to do is we want to make the website live and what we're going to use is something called Netlifi. Netleifi is basically a hosting platform that you know you take the file that you build with clot, you just upload it and then this app right here makes it live. So what we want to do is we want to click choose a folder and then we just want to you know select this real estate folder upload wait for a couple of seconds. Now after it's uploaded we want to click to this quick setup and we want to change the URL because it's like the URL is just going to be [ __ ] some [ __ ] dorky thing right and we don't want that. So, I don't know. Um, let's just call this, um, real estate Spain one, right? Update project name. Let's see if it's available. It is. Click finish later. And if we click on this, guys, look, this is so freaking awesome, right? The website is fully built. Obviously, we need to replace the images. And look at this. The form is working. everything is working.
Now, the last thing that you want to do before getting to a client acquisition, before getting to outreaching to clients, is to repeat this process four more times simply because you want to have portfolio. You want to have sample pieces that you can show to your clients so they're impressed before they hire you because you want to make clients trust you.
Okay, so now I'll show you how I got the client and there are actually three steps to it. So step number one, let's find a client. So you go to the top right of Upwork and click on jobs. Then in the search bar, you type landing page. Most of people who are looking for landing pages are businesses who need more appointments, calls, etc. Once you do that search, bunch of jobs pop up. Now you click on a job and scroll all the way to the bottom where it shows you the client's past hires. If this client's been paying people one, two, or three grand for landing pages, that's what they're going to pay, too. But if their history is full of $50 hires, expect the same. So, you only want to pitch clients whose past hires are over $500 because past behavior tells you future behavior.
Step number two, how you actually get them on the call. So once you find a good job, you hit that big green apply to job button and scroll down to where you write your job application, which is where most people mess up. Most people try to get the client with the message and that doesn't work because it's like trying to marry a woman after a first date. Your only job is to get the client on a call and then on the call you make them pay you. And you do it like this. You start a message by using something called social hacking. And it looks like this. Hi, client's first name. I've reverse engineered over 100 of the best websites in their niche. So when I build yours, you're not getting something I'm guessing will work. You're getting something based on what already works. Then after making a big claim, you need to confirm you can do the job. And you do it like this. Here are a few of my best pages so you can see the quality you can expect. and then link one, link two, and link three. Now, if you haven't made any websites yet, just watch the rest of this video because I'll show you how to do that. And then lastly, what you want to do is you want to invite them on the call like that. If my approach resonates with you, I'd love to hop on a quick call to learn more about you and your project. Do you have 15 minutes this week or next?
And step number three, close the deal on the call and get them to actually pay you. Now, since most beginners I talk to would rather eat [ __ ] than get on a sales call, I decided to record the entire call and break it down into six simple steps you can immediately use on your next call. And just so you know, first I'll play the call footage and then I'll tell you what I did correctly and how you can replicate the same too. So, let's [ __ ] do it, >> right? >>
So, I think we can start. Um, what I usually do with all my clients very very honestly, I just ask questions to get to know your business a little bit more to get through project basically. Then you ask me a couple of questions if you have and then um after this we literally just say whether it's good fit or not. So the first thing I did correctly was telling him how the call is going to go before he could run it himself. Because if you take charge, it makes you look experienced and the more experienced you look, the more they'll pay you. So, let's watch the second step.
So, can I just start by asking you obviously you've said um you need help with cohigh level landing page for a real estate agent or something like this if I'm not mistaken. So, if you just could give me I would love to hear two things. um basically a little bit more about the real estate agent or about you know the project and what is the purpose of the landing page. Is it like to book I don't know more meetings? Is it to book like what is you know what is the purpose of the landing page? Next thing I did correctly is I simply asked him about this business and what he wanted the page to do and then I shut up and let them talk. And there's two reasons for that. One, you need to know their business to do the job right. And the only way to know it is to ask. And two, when you let someone talk and actually listen, they feel he hurt. And someone who feels hurt likes you and respects you more. So ask and then shut up. The more they talk, the more authority you're getting.
>> One last thing before I let you speak, I wanted to ask because you've said a premium design. Um what I've been doing because I've been in go high level really really long time [clears throat] is >> you need to use custom code. So are you >> coding it? And obviously because I know the main the main objection here will be you cannot like um edit it by yourself right because if if it's just code >> so is it fine if it's like half coded half build because >> I'm going to tell you straight away if if you if you use just go high level it's not going to look this premium like 100% sure. So yeah that's >> completely open to it and thank you so much as well. uh I I appreciate your expertise. >> Then I simply show them I'm an expert by telling him I'm going to code this whole thing instead of building it in the drag and drop builder. So the next time you're on a call, simply tell them you will code the entire website so it looks custom and more premium. It shows care for the client and it instantly boosts your chances of getting paid more.
Um and then I'd love to hear I guess finally from my side just so I can arrange the budgeting um how long you think the scope of work will take to complete um in terms of hours in terms of anticipated cost. >> Yeah. So I I don't charge hourly. I charge just per landing page basically. >> Okay. >> Um yeah and um can I ask you I I'll I'll do it this way. What is your budget? And let's just um let's just um obviously I guess you saw um how much I charge per landing pages like roughly. So let me just know your budget and uh >> somewhere where we both are happy because Yeah. >> Sure. No, I appreciate that much. >> So it's crucial that you let your client say the price first because if you let them ask first it clearly shows where the interest is coming from which clearly is coming from their side. So whenever you are on your first call, just let them ask first.
>> Uh so from my side, I understand that you get what you pay for, right? So it's more like I can lowball you and I don't want to do that. >> Um so my budget is >> I I I wanted to keep it under £500, [clears throat] like $600 700. Um, now yeah, I I if that's a deal breaker for you, we'll see. Um, I just wanted to get what your window is. My budget is to keep it under £500, $600 to $700. Um, but yeah, I would ideally like it to be lower than that, but also understand you can't get your quality work and not pay. So, you tell me what what you think the window is, if that's reasonable. Yeah, >> of course. Of course. So, for one landing page, I charge $500. So, which basically includes the split tests for the hero sections. And then I can also um if you would like, that was another um another question because I'm a copyriter. I come from copyrightiting space. I can >> the WSL script. I like to give a full package because if I'm doing something, I want to do something that's like that's the thing, right? Yeah, >> that's pretty much that. >> Yeah. Okay, sounds good. And then for the um actual uh landing page copy as well, is that something that you would be doing or would you need us to provide the copyright? >> I will do that. I will give you all the questions. You're getting everything.
As the good old saying goes, less is always more. It applies to this situation more than anything. So, after you say the price, just shut up. If you don't defend your price, it clearly shows you're used to charging those prices. And if you're confident in what you charge, it makes the business owner confident, too. With with the payment, super simple. I just like to keep it safe for for both sides. So, you create a contract, you fund it, which basically means you don't have the money, but I also don't have the money. And then you're happy with uh with the work, you release it. spirits. >> I've been doing >> with every single client. Um, you can you can have a look at my reviews because obviously I understand it's not, you know, pockets chart. So, you can have a look at my reviews. >> Everybody says I'm super easy to work with, >> but I understand. >> I can tell. I can tell. I can tell. Trust me. Yeah. Straight away. Uh, that sounds good.
Okay. And last thing, I walk him through exactly what happens next starting with the contract. And here's why this is so freaking important because even if he agrees to the price on the call, he hasn't send the money yet. People often change their mind after they hang up. So get them to pay as fast as possible because once the money's in, the deal's closed and only then you can start working. So strike the iron while it's hot. Sick.
So now you know what to sell, who to sell it to, how to sell it, and how to deliver it. But here's a problem a lot of my students have. You can do every single thing I just showed you perfectly and still get zero clients. And the reason is super simple. Before a client ever replies to your application, the very first thing they do is they click on your Upwork profile. And if your profile isn't built to sell, you're toast. which is exactly why I put together a completely free 1-hour course on how to absolutely crush it on Upwork. It's everything I learned after making over 47 grand on the platform. And it's something I honestly wish someone gave me when I first started. And you can watch it right
