    My main business is my fitness company which is based in London. I also have a digital agency based in Cyprus. I run my digital agency company together with my brother.
    The digital agency business was started by my brother. In the beginning he was working in a job, but then he decided that he does not want to have a boss. He wanted to build something for himself. My brother started selling websites to his friends and eventually he became working like that full time. That is how he started the digital agency.
    I am now his partner. Our main services are website design, SEO and online marketing. Our first clients were our friends. Then, our friends recommended us to their friends and that is how we were able to grow.
    We bring something very new to the market like SEO in the proper way. We are offering this service because we want to change the market. We want to make businesses understand how much value they can get out of SEO.
    If it was not for SEO, I would not be able to grow my fitness coaching company. That is one of the main marketing techniques when it comes to getting new clients. It is very important to get free traffic from Google.
    Being number one on Google is absolutely priceless. Our approach of dealing with our clients is very unique and very professional. We guarantee results.
    It is different approach compared to paid adds in Facebook, but if you know how to do the correct marketing, then it is worth it. The traffic that you get from search engines is way better quality than any other traffic.
    Cyprus has a very small population and it is hard to spread the word out there. It is a very good sign if you have a lot of referrals. That means that you deliver results to your clients. If you deliver results, people will want to work with you.
    At first we started with small businesses and start-ups. Usually, we prefer to avoid start-ups now. We work with all types of businesses, but prefer to work with medium to large businesses.
    Our goal is to make your business have an online presence. It is very important to be on social media and to have an amazing website that converts and that generates online traffic.
    The way people think in Cyprus is very old fashioned. It is very hard to convince them to spend money on Facebook adds.
    The number one key to getting new clients is giving value to people. If you do that, then your clients will know that you know what you are doing. We also have our own funnels. We are doing seminars, talking on stage.
    People who attend your speeches on seminars have a lot of trust in you. When they come to you, it is relatively easy to close them, because they are like inbound leads.
    We have a lot of employees that work at our offices full time. We like to be around our people, see what they are doing and how well they can handle the work. We do not believe in outsourcing.

  • Beggars VS Business Owners
    In this podcast you will find out what it takes to be a boss on sales calls. Not just survive or get by, but thrive... and close sales for thousands of dollars. We go into the mindsets and tactics that allow members of the Daily Business Hustle mastermind close millions of dollars in sales per year.

    People who own a business do not beg. Business owners think about what they can do in order to help their clients make more money. Whereas, beggars are not interested in their client’s business at all. They are just begging for money.
    Saying that you can do the job is not enough. You are not going to impress clients like that. You have to show them that you are interested in their business.
    There is just one difference between someone who wants to work and a beggar. The person who wants to work is willing to contribute and the beggar is a lazy person looking and begging for money.
    The difference between an employee and a business owner is that the person who has a job is thankful that he can get a day off and get a higher salary or maybe a free car. But, the business owner is the person who gives the raise, who gives a free car or a day off to his employee.
    The business owner has more leverage and influence. He also knows that he will automatically make more money from that. That way he builds a system that will bring him more money in return.
    A business owner can hire someone, train him and pay him while he is learning. He wants his employees to succeed in life. Even though he knows that you are going to quit, he wants you to start a business. He does not want you to be a slave for the rest of your life.
    Business people know that the more business people there are, the better the world becomes. That is why they want their employees to become exactly as successful as they are.
    If you want to become a master on sales calls, you have to ask intelligent questions and ask everything you need to know about your client’s business. You have to make a really natural conversation and engage your client. You have to make the client know that you are the expert and you know everything that is needed to make them improve their business.
    Asking questions like “What is your revenue?” is not awkward, because that will help you make them more money.
    Another thing that is good to be shown to the client is that you are empathetic. On sales calls people see whether you are able to communicate on a basic level. If you are not showing empathy and you cannot communicate properly, it does not matter how smart you are and how much you can help. People will never do business with you.
    Handling objections is a very common problem that most sales people struggle with. You have to show them that you feel confident, that you care about them and that you understand their business.
    The call is not about you. It is all about the client and how much value you can bring. You have give them advice and feedback about their business and you will get money in return.
    Being nice and empathetic to clients builds trust in them and the more trust they have in you and the more quality work you do for them, the more they will pay you.

  • The Reason You Should Never Get A Job (NSFW Rant)
    (NSFW) Here's my breakdown of why you should never ever get a job. If you're easily offended, look away :)
    “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook:

    Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin”
    It used to be that you needed to go to university and you had to study for 4/5 years and you spend your time getting wasted partying and learning how to work in a bureaucracy and learning skills like excel, accounting and so on.
    After you graduate from university you go and apply to a job. It takes you 4/5 months to get a job, which is unrelated to the degree that you got.
    When you get your job you will get a mentor at work. This is a person who has been doing it for 20 years and is a few steps ahead of you. He is making 50% more money than you. He is not teaching you how to become an entrepreneur. He is teaching you how to work in a bureaucracy. He is teaching you to become what he is right now.
    All the time you get told: What do you want to do? What are you strengths and your weaknesses? What do you want to become. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? You tell them your dream and early on you tell them the truth. You tell them what you actually want to do.
    You tell them something like: “I want to travel and I want to see the world and I want to do lots of interesting things and do lots of interesting things and meet interesting people.” That is what most people want to do. They will tell you that this is not a dream and that you want to become an accountant.
    What do you actually want to do? Do you want to get into business or do you go into a company and be mentored by someone, who teaches you how to pay your duties?
    “I worked really hard to get here. When you get to my age you will understand.” Do you want to listen to those guys? Do you want to listen how to become them?
    Do you want to listen to your boss? Do you want to be depressed at the age of 40? Do you want to create a business? Do you want to travel the world? Do you want to see places, meet positive people? Do you want to be the person, who is behind the steering wheel? Or do you want to be a pencil pusher in an office in a cubicle, which is how most people in an office work these days.
    I cannot believe that this is still the case and I cannot believe that people are still in traffic and spend time in traffic every single day. You have the opportunity to not do that, you have the opportunity to do what you feel like doing.
    What is the solution?
    Look at people, who are not doing the traditional route. Look at people, who were ridiculed that they took the untraditional path. Look at what those people are doing.
    You can replicate almost any kind of success. It does not matter what kind of talent you have, it does not matter what parents you have or what they tell you, because they lived in a different time and most people are stuck in a different time. You do not want to be stuck in the past.
    I have been travelling the world for 4 years. I have been in business for 8 years. You do not want to go to a job.
    I have been to a job for 8 months. You learn some things and maybe you will get into sales, which us a very useful skill, but it is not fulfilling. There is that empty feeling. Why would you want to that to yourself?
    People who have a job and settled in and not moving forward. When you stop moving forward, that is when you start dying. First they dye on the inside and then their body dyes. That sounds very negative, but that is the real truth.
    Do you really want to live the traditional life, where you study, get a job and then retire? Have a few children and one of them comes to visit you every few years. It is just not appealing to me.
    There are a lot of people who live that kind of life, but for me, I am not satisfied with a life like that and I will not stand for it.
