The Secret? Marketing, Marketing, Marketing
“How can my skills and tools serve people in the trading niche?”
“How do I find out the best service I can offer them?”
These were just some of the questions Wei-Lip had when he was starting out his adventure, much like anyone.
He was unsure of how to approach them with his help since they might not understand what is he actually offering.
Of course, this problem can apply to any niche, not just trading!
There are many who have the skills to help others in their niche but lack the knowledge on how to approach them with an offer.
Wei-Lip’s concern is that people who do not have digital marketing knowledge would probably not understand what he’s saying.
Yet, he needed to find a solution for this ASAP. A method to communicate with his clients about their problems, without confusing them.
The answer?
Wei-Lip decided to pursue the alternative of asking his target group directly.
Whoever’s reading this can do the same thing too!
Engaging with your target groups can be done by joining more Facebook groups — so you can see what it’s members are talking about. Bear in mind that this is done to survey the market, not self-promotion.
Instead of frantically trying to close more leads and get clients, notice their problems, their desires, their questions.
All of these are diamonds that can indeed be used for your marketing campaigns on your own personal Facebook pages, social media platforms and so on.

FAQ
How did Wei-Lip Teo make USD18,000 from landing pages as a side hustle?
Wei-Lip joined the Design Hacking Masterclass course and applied the skills to build landing pages and sales funnels for clients in the trading niche — the industry he was already passionate about. Starting in December 2019, he secured his first client within two months. By niching to a community he understood, he became a trusted expert and grew to USD15,000–18,000 in project revenue, all while treating it as a side hustle alongside other work.
How do you market digital services to clients who don't understand marketing?
Wei-Lip solved this by researching his target clients before pitching them. He joined Facebook groups full of traders and observed their conversations — what problems they complained about, what they wished they could do, what questions they kept asking. He then framed his offer in their language around their specific problems, not around marketing jargon. The post advises this approach for any niche: survey the market first, then sell the solution to the problem you heard them describe.
What should come first — building a team or finding more clients?
According to Wei-Lip, consistent client flow must come first. He plans to build a team only after establishing steady demand, so that new hires have real work to do from day one. The logic: a team without clients is overhead, but a steady stream of clients is the proof-of-concept that justifies hiring and delegation. Once client flow is consistent, outsourcing fulfillment frees him to focus on sales and higher-value strategy.
