How do I make money with SellFolio?

Applicability: SellFolio 4.0 Complete and SellFolio 3.0 editions

Many of our customers have asked us about what other customers are doing to make SellFolios for clients, and make money. Here’s some anecdotal info that may help you make more $$$ with SellFolio…

How much can I charge a client for a SellFolio project?
We have had many customers tell us they are charging $100-$500 for a SellFolio project, with most being in the $300-500 range. Of course, this can vary widely with the amount of work involved, customization, size, and integration with existing websites, domain names, etc. It is possible that with SellFolio 4.0 Complete’s new powerful Flash creation features, the fees you can charge for a project can certainly increase well over $500.

What types of clients are requesting SellFolio projects?
Generally, our customers report doing SellFolio projects for other entrepreneurs and small businesses, like real estate agents, lawyers, IT firms, restaurants, retail shops etc. A good idea is to scan your town and contacts for small businesses and entrepreneurs who would like a more unique and professional website.

Are clients requesting websites or CDs or both?
It seems that most customers are primarily requesting websites, but more SellFolio users are reporting doing both web and CD versions for clients. It seems that in some instances, the client realizes the benefit of having identical content on both website and CD for handout.

What color schemes seem hot with customers?
Many clients are choosing color schemes that are classic, such as navy, maroon, etc. However, within the context of the type of business, you may want to choose colors that suit the business, such as red and green for a pizza parlor vs. dark brown and light blue for a trendy bistro. In most cases, your clients will have a special color already in mind.

Can I upload to my client’s site, and use their domain name with the SellFolio website?
Luckily, you can easily do this with SellFolio by uploading the client’s project, and then contacting their domain registrar to register a pointer.

What are customers requesting?
We’re seeing a rise in the use of embedded FLV video and SWF and the ability to launch a variety of file types, like PPT, PDF, DOC, etc.
