"Entrepreneurs fail not because they try to "Reinvent the Wheel" - they fail because they never stop to ask if they're actually using the right wheel in the first place."

Every one of my biggest breakthroughs came from borrowing the wheel off a completely different vehicle and putting it on my own. This is one of them.

I haven't seen anyone else talk about this model yet, so right now… you're getting it straight from the source.

My name is Vince Rieck, and the breakdown you're about to read is the culmination of over 3 years of compounding trial & error.

That's over 1,000 days of intentionally testing every single mistake possible, so that you don't have to make them all yourself.

This was put together over countless long days & nights…all compressed into one straightforward protocol you can use to build your own 6 (or 7) figure online business in the largest, and fastest growing, market that's been sitting right under everyone's nose for 2 decades.

I'm about to show you exactly how I built a single "Website Factory" from $0 to over $250,000 a month without speaking to a single customer, having to do a single sales (or client) call, posting any content on social media, or having to manually fulfill a single customer.

The Proof

The image above is a screenshot taken directly from the backend of my Hyros Analytics Dashboard from just May 20, 2025 to June 22, 2025.

Just as well, here’s a picture of my Facebook Ads account where you can see just under $100,000 spent in the same timeframe as the revenue screenshot above:

I wanted to show you the most recent revenue at the exact time I started writing this case study so you’re aware that, not only does what I’m about to show you work very well…

​But that this, in fact, is actually working right now.

So now that we got that out of the way, let me tell you who this case study is going to help:

Who This Is Going To Help:

A lot of people who are currently using our strategies here started off exactly where you probably are right now..

Maybe you're doing agency work, sell a course, a coaching/consulting program or maybe even doing web design work…

  • If you currently sell something related to starting or scaling a business, you're gonna love this.
  • If you sell something related to marketing, you're going to feel like you're right at home.
  • If you already sell high ticket services or coaching & you want to strap on a rocket engine that profitably acquires leads for your main offer, you're in the right place.
  • If you want something that's scalable, hands-off and won't distract you from your existing gig, you're in the right place.
  • If you simply just want to have the ability to generate several thousand customers (buyer leads) a month without having to manage the logistics and costs like a physical product business, this is going to be music to your ears.

Who This Is Not For

If you are any of the following, it's best that you just leave this page now:

  • If you're looking to build something small & for the short term, this is NOT for you. Website Factories historically do better the longer they operate, due to their compounding nature. So, if you're looking for a cute little side hustle that only nets $100k a year - this is NOT for you. This is for people who are looking to create an absolute behemoth of a customer acquisition engine.
  • If you aren't trying to actually make your customers happy or provide real value to the customers you'll be generating, this is NOT for you.

Layer Zero: The Truth About Generating Hundreds of Paying Customers Per Day...

Here's the truth about generating hundreds of paying customers per day that no one else will tell you…

If you're reading this, you realistically operate in the "Wealth" Category of the big 3 niches (Health, Wealth or Relationships).

Most guys in the "Wealth Category" struggle to build something truly scalable not because they lack marketing skills, sales skills, or they can't provide great products & services.

They struggle to scale because they don't recognize what business they're actually in.

Most guys in the Wealth Category THINK their business is just what outcome they get for customers once the customer gives them money.

In reality, your business is the overarching action that customers are performing en masse.

​Let me explain with two quick examples:

  • McDonald's isn't in the food business, they're in real estate. The burgers are bait. They make their money from franchise leases.
  • Volkswagen isn't in the car business - they're in financing. The cars are bait. The highest margin part of their business is VW Financial Services.

So, if you sell any sort of product, service or information related to making more money (in any fashion)...

  • You're NOT in the sales business.
  • You're NOT in the marketing business.
  • You're NOT in the information business.
  • You're NOT in the content creation business.

Those are just the things that we either give to, or help customers do.

We're actually in The Capital Formation Business.

The businesses that make the most amount of money are the ones that monetize at the "deepest layer" of their customer's business (or life), which we'll show you how to do momentarily.

Here's an analogy that will make it clear what I'm saying.

Most "business gurus", service providers and people selling something in the Wealth Category are like selling shovels to gold miners.

Sure, they make a bit of money…

BUT, it's costly, service-heavy, detailed work, and they have to replace the shovels when they break etc.

But what if instead of selling the shovel...

We just sold the train ride to get to the gold rush? And what if we could sell that train ride to BOTH the gold miners AND the shovel sellers?

That's exactly what happens when you build an automated funnel that sells website templates like I'm about to show you right now.

We can easily build a monster customer acquisition machine that scales to multiple 6-figures a month in just a few weeks, because we're selling one of the fundamental "deepest layer" tools that everyone needs, not dealing with the complex, costly & time consuming details of how to use it…

​This is the real secret why we're able to drive so much volume.

​So, while course sellers & marketing agencies essentially "warm up the audience" whenever they post content about the detailed stuff like advertising, sales, branding, product design etc. and "hype up the crowd" on the gold rush…

…We can casually just sell the tickets to get there like clockwork and "wipe our hands clean" by providing a basic, systemized product.

And think about it for a second…

A website is the true "core symbol" of what it means for someone to start a business & is pretty much the deepest layer of a beginner entrepreneurs business we can sell into without putting up millions of investment capital.

All the other things that go into online business that the content creators, marketing agencies & course sellers are selling are just more costly, complex and time consuming.

​Therefore, in order to move the greatest amount of possible customer volume we can, we just sell the ONE thing that:

  • Every business needs (100% addressable market)
  • Requires little-zero customization on our behalf (infinite scalability)
  • Delivers instant gratification (immediate perceived value)
  • Costs us literally zero to fulfill (pure margin on every unit)

I coined this concept of selling to the deepest possible layer into someone's business in order to increase scale, stability & margin.

I refer to the framework as Layer Zero.

Layer Zero is why Website Factories can scale to hundreds of customers per day for literally years on end, while other people operating in the “Wealth” niche cap out at only $500k a year while working themselves to death.

The higher “the layer” of someone’s business you sell into, the more frequent things change, therefore increasing complexity, therefore reducing how truly big you can build that business.

​Here’s a simplified visual representation of the typical “layers” that exist in your average online business.

How We Figured This Out

In case you don't know me, my name is Vince Rieck. And in 2023 I figured out a new way of running a web design business.

This new way that I came up with, The Website Factory Model, was ultimately what allowed me to break past the barrier of $250,000 per month and hit my first couple million.

But before I came across this way of doing things, much like everyone who tries to get into web design, I started by doing traditional client work.

Back in the summer of 2022, I had just quit my job in car sales, even though I was the #1 salesman at that dealership & was selling between 20- 30 cars a month.

At this time I had some debt I wanted to pay off and I had just gotten out of the military 2 years prior, so I really didn’t have any other career prospects.

I quit because the owner of the dealership pulled up to the front of the dealership in his brand new Lamborghini Aventador… just days after announcing that the company needed to cut people's hours & re-adjust the commission structure for sales reps so they could cut back on costs.

It was from that moment forward that I committed myself to finding a way to make real money for myself & no one else would EVER have that much control over my income again.

Now Let's Be Real Here...

Who hasn’t heard of building websites for other people? (as either a standalone business idea or a way of getting customers in the door for their existing marketing/coaching business?)

It’s one of the most obvious offers...

Because literally EVERY single business either needs to get a website OR needs to update/optimize their website (so they can effectively acquire more customers).

So at this time, I immediately jumped in & looked for things that could help me get started quicker than just trying to figure out every part of the business for myself.

During this time period, I had spent roughly $5,000-$10,000 on different courses, templates, checklists & trainings during this time period.

But there was a problem - every single course I bought were all saying to do the same thing.

Cold outreach (cold calling or emailing) & then begging the leads for a chance to be a short-term employee in exchange for a measly 1-2 thousand bucks.

I still remember that after buying one of the courses, they put me into a Discord community with over 5,000 people inside, with hundreds of them asking questions and getting 0 feedback.

I tried doing the cold outreach, doing initial project estimate calls with potential clients, and then trying to negotiate with penny pinching business owners that only cared about how low the price was.

It Was A Mess...

In fact, there were actually “coaches” inside the program that actually were losing money with their businesses and had to go back to getting full time jobs again. (not exaggerating)

Looking back, it’s pretty funny that happened, but at the time I was another several thousand dollars deep into debt, and my savings were running out.

I ditched everything they told me to do with all the complicated processes of doing cold outreach and hiring a project manager, hiring a designer etc.

I decided to figure out something different. Something that was simple to execute, but was innovative enough to outdo all the gurus I had believed before.

I made the commitment to put my head down & work from morning until night until I managed to make this work.

Every single day was the exact same schedule. Working on marketing in the morning, building future customer deliverables in the afternoon and then trying to learn & find out new strategies in the evening.

After a few weeks of doing this, things finally started to click.

In the Fall, things were finally showing progress. Throughout the remainder of the year, all I focused on was building this business. Long days of just figuring everything out myself through brute force.

In just a few months of grinding I had made enough money to pay off all my debt & stacked up enough in savings where I could live comfortably for an entire year without making another dime.

Fast forward to now and I’ve generated over $3 million in sales.

As you can see, the journey was not easy and it was filled with desperate attempts and failures.

Because I know how hard it was for me, I decided to help you potentially avoid some of the failures and pain I went through myself.

As a result, I decided to break down the process I’ve used to create these results for myself.

In the following steps, I’ll outline the entire process A to Z of what I did to accomplish these results, and hopefully, you will use these steps to launch a profitable Website Factory and generate 50-100 customers a day, and scaling to $50,000 - $100,000 per month (or more) in the next 24 weeks.

The Last Thing I Want To Give You Before Diving In...

Once I noticed the pattern with online business of:

Confusion -> Struggle -> Breakthrough…

I created a quote that I’ll remind myself of if I ever feel like I hit roadblocks with understanding something new:

"Confusion is just the feeling of making progress that you can’t see the results of yet."

And if that doesn’t click, here’s a more visualizable way of saying it:

"Confusion is the brain's version of growing pains— it's literally making room for new truth(s) that don't fit who you used to be."

Now with that said, let's dive right in.

Website Factories 101

Now, let me tell you right away, this is NOT Rocket Science.

However, the barrier to entry is not as low as simply setting up a landing page, turning on a payment processor and start collecting payments.

This is a good thing for you because if you actually get good at this, you’ll have way less competition.

​If you run some numbers, you’re also going to realize that it’s much more profitable to sell websites in the way that I’m about to show you, regardless of your profit margins because of the sheer scale you will be selling websites at.

Think about it.

If you sell a $5,000 website at 70% net profit margin (costs like software, time/expense marketing, paying designers etc.) after EVERYTHING is said and done…

...all the time you had to spend manually finding a potential client...

...reaching out to them, hoping you'll at least maybe get a response...

...all the effort you had to put into a proposal once they showed interest...

…the frustration of the prospect trying to haggle down the price…

…personally dealing with or having to hire someone for the onboarding, the project management (not to mention the god-awful revision process)...

After all that effort & weeks of time spent…

You would only be left with a measly 3500 bucks. (maybe)

And even IF you did price the website higher or MAYBE you had lower costs - you would STILL be dealing with the feast & famine cycle of a project based, boutique service business where you have to go through this cycle over & over & over endlessly.

But what if we did it the opposite way?

Where we didn’t have to deal with ANY of the operational complexity & simply lowered the price?

…where our only cost is 1 or 2 softwares, a virtual assistant for a couple hundred bucks a month, and our cost of ads.

We could sell websites for $100 a pop and just automate the process so our net profit margin is about 50% (this is lower mine is at scale btw).

But the biggest thing we get back now, is our time.

If you had access to a system like this, where for every $1 you put into ads you got $2-$3 back out AND it was completely detached from your time, wouldn’t you just crank up the volume too? Exactly.

So that’s precisely what we do.

And let me tell you, it is a HELL OF A LOT EASIER to sell & fulfill dozens (if not hundreds) of websites everyday for 50 to 300 bucks than it is to sell & fulfill one for $5,000+

(As proof of this, just look at how many i sold just yesterday 👇)

Now obviously I didn’t personally make over 200 sales calls yesterday to try & convince people to buy websites.

Nor do I have any kind of sales team doing it either. (I don’t have any sales staff)

​And because you no longer have to do any:

❌ cold outreach...

❌ no call booking process...

❌ no talking to each individual customer...

❌ no sales calls...

❌ no onboarding call...

❌ no project management...

❌ no design revisions...

All we need to do is just crank up the ads & Just Sell More.

This Website Factory Model I’ve created allows for the sales process & fulfillment process to be completely detached from your time.

Meaning that, even though the profit margins are technically lower on paper, the astronomical scale more than makes up for it.

​It literally takes zero time out of your day to make the same amount of money in a single day what it would normally take you 2 weeks to do with a single traditional web design client.

On this note...

Something I wish someone told me when starting out: Anyone who runs a “client based business” will perpetually remain an employee.

But when you run a “product-based business” is when you actually become a true CEO.

You’re no longer selling hours, because you’re scaling systems that work without you & every action you take compounds.

Starting right now, everyone that gives you money is a customer, not a client.

So from here on out, I’d like you to start thinking about this business model not as a “Website Agency”, but more like a “Website Store”.

So now that you understand that mathematically it makes more sense, let me break down the process for you.

Every successful and profitable Website Factory follows a specific set of steps and has a specific set of pieces that makes it function.

These are:

  • 0 - Foundation of proper business setup that sells high-quality websites to make sure customers are happy
  • 1 - A niche that consists of buyers that already have built-in demand and (ideally) a large amount of people to sell to, or a growing amount of people to sell to
  • 2 - A small suite of web design products that serve the different types of people within the niche you serve
  • 3 - An assembly line of simple automations that fulfills customers on their purchase & is infinitely scalable.
  • 4 - A Niche ‘Self-Service’ Sales Page/Website themed around & resonating with the niche we are targeting
  • 5 - A proper Ads strategy that specifically targets people that are already looking for what you’re selling & are ready to buy.
  • 6 - A well functioning system where we have inexpensive virtual assistants follow up with customers to get reviews & find higher value customers
  • 7 - A repeatable system for upselling higher value customers & increasing the average of how much our customers spend with us

Every successful and profitable Website Factory has all of these pieces dialed in.

More importantly, all of them simultaneously influence each other in chronological order.

Meaning you don’t want to skip any of these steps and have them completely dialed in before you move on to the next.

​And now that you understand the process overview, here’s the step-by-step breakdown of how to execute this process, and I did so to generate over $1,843,256.62 in 12 months

The Website Factory Framework

The Website Factory Framework revolves around 3 key pillars:

A - Setup & Foundations
B - Launch & Optimize
C - Scale & Profit Maximization


Each pillar incorporates the steps mentioned above.

So without further ado, let’s get into it

A) Setup & Foundations

0) Proper Business Setup

Our process starts with setting up a business entity

Unlike traditional freelancing or basic contractor work where you can just send businesses emails, talk to them on the phone and close them on a website package, that’s not how it works with Website Factories.

With Website Factories, you’ll need to actually set up essentially a “micro-brand” in order to actually establish trust with all the potential customers we’re going to be getting.

The best way to think of this is that instead of a “web design agency”, we’re a “web design eCommerce business”.

And there’s no way that someone is going to plug in their credit card information and buy from you if we don’t have an established brand, starting right from the foundations...

Now I know what you might be thinking…

“Damn this sounds like a lot of work right from the get-go”

And if you’re thinking that, I don’t know why you’re still reading this, you should just leave.

But if you’re not, let me explain to you why this is actually a good thing for you.

You see, one of the reasons why traditional web design/development businesses are so unsustainable is because it has such a low barrier to entry.

Any kid with a laptop and a wifi connection will watch 2 hours of Youtube and can run a web design agency.

Even if you do close a website client this way…

…you have to deal with the feast and famine cycle of doing project based work, you’re being compared to countless other people offering the same thing, your profit margin will dip, and within a few months, you’re going to want to quit the whole thing.

Now by actually adding some friction at the beginning of this process, we’re raising the barrier of entry. What does this mean?

It means that your competition will be 100x lower because it’s not as easy to access the business opportunity.

This is a great thing if you’re willing to put in work and do it right as the upside to this opportunity becomes significantly higher the less competition exists.

So how do you create a proper business setup for a Website Factory?

The Website Factory Business Setup

1.1A - 💼 Business Structure [not legal/accounting advice, just sharing what I’ve done]

You have three main options here: operating as a sole proprietor, forming an LLC, or establishing a corporation.

As a sole proprietor, you are your business. If your business makes money, it goes on your income return. However, if your business gets sued, you get sued.

The advantage is cost-effectiveness. But realistically, this is basically just asking for problems later.

A corporation is a separate legal entity that exists as a legal "person."

Corporations provide liability protection and can offer tax advantages depending on the type (S-Corp vs C-Corp) and your specific situation.

An LLC is, in my opinion, a perfect middle ground. Like a corporation, an LLC provides liability protection by creating separation between your personal assets & business liabilities.

LLCs typically offer greater flexibility & provide tax advantages as pass-through entities, meaning profits and losses flow directly to your personal tax return, avoiding double taxation.

LLCs also have way less administrative overhead than corporations do at scale.

Keep in mind some of the largest companies on the planet are LLC’s too.

So it’s not like your income/revenue will be limited by the structure.

If you want protection, efficiency & to be able to start fast without excessive complexity off the bat…

I'd recommend just quickly starting to process to creating an LLC as your starting point.

Finally, if you happen to live in a different country than the United States, this process will be different. So if you aren’t a US Citizen I’d recommend asking Google, GPT or Grok to point you in the right direction.

​For Those In The U.S. My personal favorite platform for quickly & efficiently setting up entities & getting all the docs squared away is Zenbusiness


​NOTE:☝️ I want to be forthright in mentioning that if you do create your entity etc. with them, by clicking this link I WILL receive a commission. However, my recommendation is not influenced by the fact that I get a commission whatsoever, I personally use them for all of my entities that I have set up thus far & will continue to do so. (Put it this way, I went out of my way to become a Referral Partner with them because of how often I ended up catching myself sending people their way)

1.1B - 📞 Business Phone Number

I’m gonna make this very simple - you will soon be driving so many customers that you will be angry at yourself for not getting this done

(For simplicity’s sake) You can easily create a Google Voice account where you can talk & text for free on a completely new number & have it as your business line.

This obviously isn’t amazing for tracking analytics or anything more complex, but it’s cost effective & fast.

Keep in mind you won’t be using this all that much for actually talking to customers, but if customers ever call the number on their bank statement in regards to a transaction question, you’re 100% going to want to keep it separate from your personal number.

1.1D - 🏦 Business Bank Account

Trust me, you DO NOT want to make the mistake of mixing your personal finances and business finances.

The accounting nightmare this will cause is going to make you wish you could go back in time & strangle yourself.

I personally use Chase as my primary account and I secondarily use Bank Of America.

You don’t need 2 business checking accounts off the bat, but when you start running larger sales volume you’re going to want a backup business checking account. This has rescued me several times already from random unforeseen scenarios I couldn’t have predicted.

1.1E - 💳 Business Credit Card

This will be helpful in the long term to generate some nice benefits as well as cash back.

Over the course of your business journey you will spend a large amount of money on standard business expenses, especially on ads, and trust me when I say getting even a sliver of cash back or travel points is more than worth it.

Depending on your credit history and the benefits that make the most sense for you, you can use an AMEX Platinum or Gold card.

I have also personally heard positive things about Ramp’s card & accounting platform as well for managing business spending.

1.1F - 🖥️ Sign up for a Swift Websites Account

This is the platform we've created specifically for building scaled customer fulfillment for the Website Factories Model.

No other platform even comes close in terms of how well designed it is for this purpose of selling websites at scale.

We literally have entire AI Helpdesk + live 24 hour customer service do the customer service that are trained to help with this model I'm about to show you + will even help your customers make changes on their sites without charging you any additional fee to do it.

I would recommend creating an account & browsing the platform to get used to it now, because it’s going to be your best friend.

It isn’t mandatory to wait to go into the next steps without having these done. But I would recommend that you start these processes so you don’t have to wait on anything once you’re ready to make your first sale.

Now, we’re ready to dive into building the business.

Picking A Niche With Potential

The next step in our process is finding a niche of businesses or ‘business opportunity’ niche that already has built-in demand.

A huge advantage of yours is that you have complete control of a few variables that will determine your potential Lifetime Value (LTV) of the niche you choose to sell to, as well as the total number of potential customers that you can potentially sell to.

What we want to aim for here is maximizing First Customer Volume Potential, and worry about Pricing Potential second.

The reason being is that…

If you picked a niche where the customer base can spend $5,000 with you & there’s 5,000 potential customers...

That Leaves You With $25 Million Of Revenue Potential.

However, if you pick a niche where the customer base could only spend $1,000 with you & but it has 500,000 potential customers…

That Leaves You With $500 Million of Revenue Potential.

I know this probably sounds like I’m exaggerating right now with these numbers…

But one thing you have to keep in mind that this market you and I are in (selling websites) is ABSOLUTELY MASSIVE.

A really good example of just how ridiculously large our market is:

GoDaddy has over 20 million customers that buy their website related products on their platform with an average Annual LTV of ONLY $220. Their revenue in 2024 was $4.573B

You know what that means?

That means even selling “cheap” products/services is making them over $12.5 MILLION A DAY.

And that’s just one of the players in our market. This industry you and I are in right now is literally growing at nearly 20% per year.

So trust me when I tell you that no matter what niche you choose, you’re going to be absolutely fine, it’s just in your best interest to go bigger, not taller.

Another reason we shoot for building our Website Factories in larger niches is that the bigger your market is, your business will have a longer lifespan.

If you only had 5,000 potential customers, you would exhaust your entire market in less than a week once you launched your ads.

And trust me, I totally understand how good it feels to close high ticket services. I love that rush from the feeling of tens of thousands of dollars of instant profit from a single transaction hitting my bank account too.

The issue is that high-priced services are a higher ROI to you the less of them that you do.

The more “fulfillment” your business is responsible for with each customer (higher price), the worse-off the business’ financials are the higher you scale.

This is why Volkswagen owns Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche & Lamborghini. Not the other way around.

In fact, VW’s annual profit is nearly 12 times Lamborghini’s entire annual revenue.

So, when considering our niche, we want to play to be Volkswagen, not play to be Lamborghini.

🗂️ The Website Factories Niche Selection Framework

So, the 3 variables we have in our control when picking our niche are:

✅ Niche Size

✅ Level Of Development

✅ Expected Value

I’m going to try to keep this as simple as possible. If you’re completely new to business as a whole - this may seem complicated for about the first 2 minutes, but you’ll get the hang of it quickly.

(Remember my quote from earlier about Confusion)

If I make this part seem like a bigger deal than it actually is… someone is bound to give themselves analysis paralysis & not execute on this playbook when they otherwise would have been completely fine & been able to make sales just days from now.

But, I still want to be thorough enough here so you’re better equipped for success in the long term.

  • Your Niche Size will determine how many total customers you can potentially sell to. The proper term for this is TAM (Total Addressable Market)

  • The Level of Development of the customers in the niche you’re targeting effects both the size of your TAM and your LTV

  • The Expected Value is how much of an ROI the average customer immediately perceives they are likely to get when buying from you.

Niche Size Simple Example:

Google Keyword Research or Similarweb says that lawyers searching for website designs comes out to 5,000 searches per month

Level of Development Simple Example:

Level 1) We refer to this as "B2C" or selling to the general public, who see your Website Factory as an opportunity into a business model they are interested in

Level 2) We refer to this as "B2S" or Business-To-Solopreneur, where the target audience probably gets some business but realistically could no longer be classified as “a beginner” but they definitely wouldn’t qualify as an established business.

Level 3) Established businesses with employees and a regular flow of customers

Expected Value Simple Example: A lawyer's increase in business from a properly set up website would be far greater than a plumber's. But whats EVEN MORE IMPORTANT, is that you don't have to explain that concept to the lawyer. Prioritizing niches & demographics that actually understand the impact of what our Website Factory can do for them is a huge bonus…

​Now, most people’s instinct right here would be to do hours of research then perform advanced math & statistics to try and calculate the precise potential revenue & the lifespan of their Website Factory…

But there is a better way to go about the niche selection process that will guarantee, in the end, that we can achieve high volume, higher than average pricing & a 3+ year business lifespan…

​So the options we have laid out in front of us are:

1 - Broad Website Factory

- “We build websites”

2 - Single Product Niche Website Factory - “We build websites for lawyers that practice family law”

With a Broad Website Factory, you can sell everything to everyone but your conversion rates will be low because you’re not appealing to one specific avatar.

With a Single Product Website Factory, you’ll build your site, ads and copy directed specifically at one avatar which means you’ll have a higher conversion rate but you’ll be very limited because you can only sell one type of website and scaling with one “product” becomes hard to do past a certain amount of revenue.

So what do you do?

We create what I call a Category King Website.

So let’s say for example you were running a Single Product Website Factory and you were selling websites to Family Law lawyers.

Running that Website Factory, you’d probably attract specifically just Family Law lawyers (obviously).

So instead of just selling to family law lawyers, we’re going to create a Category King Website Factory that revolves around Lawyers generally.

Sell multiple sub-niche sites to one group of specific avatars would be interested in buying.

So here’s how you go about this process.

1 - You list the largest sub-niches within your primary niche.

Example if we were to target sub-niches for lawyers:

  • Family Law
  • Personal Injury Law
  • Tax Law
  • Criminal Law

2 - Validate Numerical Demand

There are 2 Ways of doing this:

1. Google/Similarweb Keyword Planner Research

2. The second way is to use a platform like VidIQ to check YouTube search volume in the niche of your choice looking for anything to do with getting more leads, clients or customers. Ex: FB Ads for {niche} or how to get {niche} clients.

3 - Validate Secondary Demand (Perception Based Demand)

~ If there are “gurus” selling courses about how to start or scale businesses in the niche you have an idea in, that’s a FANTASTIC indicator that your niche idea is large & potentially even growing.

A 2 minute check on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram or X will give you secondary validation.

Keep in mind with this that sometimes the numbers won’t always reflect truly how much opportunity a certain niche has.

One of my most successful website factories has less than 1,000 google searches a month and the sparse amount of content talking about it would lead you to believe that it was a small niche. (But it generates a quarter million a month in sales when it’s executed on)


You could take this even further by making your Website Factory around Service Businesses generally, but then we once again run into the issue of losing conversion rates & losing LTV by going too broad.

I’ve found that the highest performing Website Factories for myself & clients are centered around a "niche” or a specific "opportunity" rather than a “classification of a business model” (ex Service Businesses or “Professionals)

2) Turning Your Web Design Service Into A Web Design Product

Now that we have 8-10 subniches selected, it’s time to put the productized websites together.

Now let me put a big emphasis on this.

Your Productized Websites will make or break your Website Factory.

At the end of the day, this business model functions better the more “pre-done work” you do.

Just like any other product-based business, the more “well-fitted” and optimized the websites are for each specific sub-niche of customers you’re selling to, the happier each customer will be.

The happier your customers are ➜ the more positive reviews you will get, and the more positive reviews you get ➜ the better perception new customers will have of your business coming in, and the better their perception of you they have coming in ➜ the more of your upsells they will buy (we’ll go over this part soon), and the more of your upsells they buy ➜ the more money you make off the same advertising spend, and the more money you make off the same advertising spend ➜ The more customers you can afford to spend to acquire.

Understanding this, the better fitted our Productized Sites are to our sub-niches, the healthier our business will be.

(Also think about it, the more detailed & fleshed out a product is to solve your problem would make you much happier about your purchase than if it was basic & was missing key features)

So how do we make our Productized Websites more well-fitted to our customer base?

📦 The Website Factories Productization Method

Now, one thing I want to be very clear about in this section. Is that if you just sell people random website templates alone, you’re going to make little to no money.

I see so many people in the web design space on YouTube trying to sell pretty website templates but they make almost zero money.

The real Meta is “pre-accomplishing” as much work as possible for client’s/ customers.

BUT, this is not just related to the website design.

Remember, the reason any person is interested in a new website/better website in the first place is that the site is just one of the pieces necessary to achieve their outcome of starting or scaling their business.

Therefore, the thing that makes our Productized Websites truly stand out is adding more “ready-to-use” components that speed up their likelihood of the outcome they want.

A good example of this: Inside the Website Factories Program, we have “pre-completed” over 90% of the process to launching your Factory in order to help you get your first paying customers in under 10-14 days of joining.

We do this by not only giving you the entire walkthrough training of each step of the process…

But also handing you:

  • The Niche Selection & Validation Sheet (helps you with…)
  • Pre-completed Productized Websites you can use to fulfill your customers (helps you with…)
  • The Website Delivery Automation we use (helps you with…)
  • The ‘Self-Service’ Sales Page that converts over 3% of cold traffic into customers (helps you with…)
  • The Properly set up Website Factory Home Site that increases customer trust if they look you up before buying (helps you with…)
  • The Proven ad templates, copy & scripts we use ourselves to generate over 100 buyers per day (helps you with…)
  • The SOP’s for easily hiring & training virtual assistants to manage customer questions + pre-written responses to the most commonly asked questions (helps you with…)
  • Our personal upsell framework & templates that boosts the amount of money the average customer will spend with you upwards of $200-$500 (helps you with…)
  • Plus so much more that I couldn’t list it all here without completely derailing my point…

And the point I’m making here is that if we only gave you just 1 of those, you probably wouldn’t feel ecstatic about your purchase.

Even though just 1 of those pieces alone could change the entire trajectory of your business journey, you would still not make progress nearly as fast as if I simply just gave you everything I personally used & proved out.

By “compressing” the timeframe that your customers are able to get their desired outcome + reducing the amount of time, effort, brainpower & creativity required to get the outcome…

Your customers will be happier, spend more money with you and refer you more business either directly or indirectly via giving you amazing reviews.
So what this means is that, over time, we want to “pre-complete” more & more work that customers would have to do themselves once they have our products.

Some great ideas to do this would be things like templates & content for ads to help them attract new clients/customers faster…

Templatized or pre-written blog articles…

Templatizing emails

And even pre-integrating/building products (huge perceived value booster btw)

This is also one of the reasons we use Swiftwebsites.ai

When your customers transplant your Productized Websites into their account, all of the above can genuinely be transplanted via a single delivery automation. (Less work for customer)

Other marketing related platforms like GoHighLevel, Systeme.io, Leadpages, Shopify etc. don’t have the amount of sharing capacity that Swift does. (Trust me, we’ve genuinely tried them all and it’s not even close)

Step 1 - Go To Swift & create ‘MVP’ sub-niche websites

Step 2 - Write down the 5 steps your preferred niche would need to do themselves in order to “get their first win”

Step 3 - Create short Google Doc walkthroughs or Pre-Completed templates of the steps required to accomplish that specific step

Note: Start simple with all of these in the beginning, DO NOT sink too much time into these steps before launching. You would be surprised how thankful customers are even with simple fulfillment in the beginning. Keep in mind that these can always be optimized over time, and your support rep will get feedback from customers on what they actually would like more of. For all you know, if you try to build every single complex detail before launching, you could accidentally be building stuff that customers may not even care about. This is why we say to “MVP” (Minimum Viable Product) your Productized Websites.

Something that should make you very confident in how quickly you can do this is that the first Website Factory I created, I launched in 11 days from the time I had the idea. With the sales page, the productized sites, the upsells etc. all completed - and I did it without any guide or course or templates to help me like you’re getting right now. So trust me when I say yours can launch successfully & quickly without getting stuck in the product development phase.

Another thing on this too. The reason this system is so successful is that we’re essentially “front-loading the work”.

With a traditional website design agency/freelancing business model, it’s essentially just “making a bunch of promises up front” and then scrambling to fulfill on everything you had to promise to make the sale.

Me personally? I don’t like to make promises that I can’t confidently 1) Overdeliver on and 2) Deliver faster than I initially promised.

So we’re essentially saving ourselves massive amounts of time & frustration later by pre-solving every problem we would normally have to manually deal with one-by-one.

Once you do this…

Boom - Your Productized Websites are ready to deliver to paying customers.

But before that…

Building Your Website Factory & Self-Service Sales Machine

Now when it comes to building your Website Factory’s site, it will be a different process than building a traditional web design agency website.

Think of a traditional web design/freelancing as a guy asking a random girl off the street to get into an exclusive relationship with him.

She knows nothing about him, has zero context of what his intentions are & plus, there’s a 1% chance that he’s a serial killer.

And unless there’s something seriously wrong with her (or he’s the best looking guy on the planet who just coincidentally happens to be a movie star with millions of dollars falling out of his pockets) she will simply say no.

This is the experience of the average web designer.

The prospect gets a cold call or cold email, gets annoyed and tells the web designer to fuck off.

And in the rare case the prospect would consider a conversation - they’re not willing to commit enough money to the project that would actually make it worth your time.

Website Factories is the exact opposite.

Think of it like a long-term girlfriend.

Instead of asking for complete commitment right off the bat with very little knowledge of the other person, you start off by going out on a date to get to know each other better.

It’s a good experience for both people, and both of you enjoy it, so it doesn’t stop there.

After that first time, you keep nurturing & investing in the relationship.
Maybe you took her to a fancy restaurant on the first date but now you’ll take her to a new spot.

Eventually, she’s your girlfriend and she always keeps coming back for more.

This is what it’s like to operate a Website Factory.

First, you nurture your customers into a low-risk, premium product.

Then you give them a premium experience through proper fulfillment and customer service.

And because they enjoy it so much, they will happily buy your growing catalog of related products & services you can build over time.

And the cherry on top…because Website Factories focus on volume sales - you never have to deal with clients that aren’t “gf material”.

Someone emails you for an add-on service, but in their email they say they want a lower price?

No worries.

You can say no to working with them, without a care in the world, because you already generated $2,000 in sales today.


You decided to sell a $2,000 a month ads management retainer service to a customer on the backend of your Factory, but they started talking to you with an attitude?

No worries.

Fire them on the spot, because you’re getting 50 buyer leads a day (at a profit) that would happily sign up to be your next client.

We don’t deal with bad-behaving customers over here.

So how do you build a Website Factory?

🗺️ The WF Website Framework

Now I’m not going to walk you through a Swift tutorial here.

Instead, I’m going to explain to you the high-level concept behind the structure of a Website Factory & how it gets customers.

For demonstration, let’s assume we’re selling websites (or funnels, which is even easier to fulfill) to content creators.

Now imagine a Pyramid.

[Image]

Now imagine this pyramid has 3 layers.

[Image]

Now, this pyramid represents the level at which our customers are.

Below the pyramid, for this specific example, you have people who are looking for a way to make money online.

These people are what we refer to as the Mass Market. People who really haven’t really been introduced to any specific way of making money online whatsoever.

Above that, (the bottom level of the pyramid) you have people who know you can make money as a content creator, but they don’t know what “way” to do it. (The “way” being the exact business model).

Above that, you have people who know they can make money as a content creator, they know what business model they want to do, but they’re looking for tools to help them do it.

And at the top, you have people who know they can make money as a content creator, they know what “way” (business model) fits them, they know what kind of tool they need to do it and all you need to do is just put the tools in front of that customer and capture that sale.

2 parts - The Home Site, Self-Service Sales Page

Now imagine your Website Factory and its 2 main sections.

Those being:

Home Site
Self-Service Sales Page

Your Home Site is designed for prospects at the bottom of the pyramid

It’s purpose is to build Trust with people that don’t purchase immediately from your Self Service Sales Page.

You do this by creating a clean and functional aesthetic, providing social proof through Reviews you get over time, and establishing yourself as an authority through answering common questions & highlighting any and all services provided.

Because I would never expose one of my Inner Circle Member’s Website Factories that are doing numbers without their express permission. You can view the Website Factories site as an example of what I’m talking about.

The Self Service Sales Page is designed for prospects at the top of the pyramid.

Its purpose is to convert.

It does this by being direct, highlighting the benefits of the core website offer + bonuses & creating clarity as to exactly what they’re getting and what it will help with.


Once again, because I don’t expose Inner Circle Members offers that are doing numbers, you can check out one of my many sales pages for Website Factories.


When you structure your Website Factory like this, we address every level of customer.

As you might imagine, different customers have different conversion windows (the time between the customer seeing us for the first time and buying).

Having both a direct Self-Service Sales Page & A Home Site lets you capitalize on quick action takers & also make more skeptical buyers a bit more comfortable.

And this is how you build and structure a proper Website Factory.
