This free guide will help you pinpoint why you're not landing clients—and what to do instead.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE

You don’t need a logo, a niche, or a big audience to start. You just need a plan.

In this episode, I walk you through exactly how to go from nothing—no clients, no traffic—to your first invoice. It’s not about going viral. It’s about gaining momentum.


YOUR ACTION PLAN THIS WEEK

→ Build a one-page website with clear info on who you help and how

→ Message 3 potential clients or peers each day (15 this week)

→ Post 1 helpful insight weekly to show your value

→ Join 2 online groups where your ideal clients hang out

→ Leave 1 useful, non-salesy comment in each group


REMEMBER THIS

You don’t need to be everywhere.

You don’t need to be impressive.

You just need to start moving.


NEXT EPISODE

Next week, I’ll help you figure out what to actually offer—and how to explain it in a way that gets people to say “yes.”
