336 - Building Recurring Revenue through Maintenance and Growth Plans with Marc Hyde

Web Design Business with Josh Hall

Recurring revenue…the two most lovely words in web design (or any business for that matter.)
Having enough recurring income to cover my family's bills is what changed the game for me, it’s what helped get us through a 56 day NICU journey and it’s what ultimately led to me creating my first course on how to launch and sell website maintenance plans.
One of my students Marc Hyde went through that course back in 2021 and within three years, his maintenance plan is now over 30% of his business revenue. And he’s on track for well over 6-figures this year in 2024. Recurring revenue allowed him to grow his business to become profitable and stable enough to go full time and now support a wife and family of 8 kiddos.
Today, he’s on the podcast sharing exactly how he came into web design, built, launched and sold his maintenance plan to clients and now how he’s offering his new passion for SEO and marketing plans alongside his standard web design and maintenance plans.
We cover everything from:

• Having a people and results-first approach to sales
• How he launched and built up his recurring revenue through maintenance plans
• Where to draw the line between maintenance/support and growth plans
• How to build relationships with clients to retain them
• How to get better referrals from current clients and more

Marc is one of the most engaged members of my community Web Designer Pro™ and is a great example of every sense of the phrase. I hope you enjoy learning from him and take from his example of putting an emphasis on creating recurring revenue through better client relationships!
It all compounds to a stable, sustainable web business very quickly.
