406 - Client Retention Q&A + my Black Friday Deals

Web Design Business with Josh Hall

I’m sharing the replay of my recent Live Q&A session where we dug into all things client retention, communication, and keeping your web design business running smoothly… even when outages hit or the unexpected happens.
You’ll hear me break down some of the same strategies I taught at the recent Circle Summit — including how to set boundaries, create repeatable touchpoints, and turn one-time clients into long-term fans.
And since we’re heading into Black Friday, I also walk through this year’s Web Designer Pro® deals, including some really solid bonuses to help you level up going into 2025.
We cover:

• personal welcome videos that set the tone
• launch packs that turn go-live into referrals
• 30-day post-launch buffers to reduce scope creep
• monthly reports to stay top-of-mind
• A/B/C client segmentation for holiday outreach
• the “website is never finished” mindset
• SOS plans for Squarespace and Webflow clients
• calm scripts for handling outages + tough conversations
• shifting from designer → strategist
• what’s new with Divi 5
• security basics and support plans
• Black Friday offers worth sharing
