Figure out what you’re going to do.

– what are you good at now?

– what will people pay for?

– what is the target market you’re looking at?

2. Where will you offer your services?

– is Upwork worth it?

– what about testing your ideas on Fivver

– build your own site and use it as the hub of your work

3. Start Planning

– are you going to keep the business on the side or go full-time?

– what type of savings do you need to go full-time?

– how many clients do you need to go full-time?

– Aim for 6-months saved, and make sure you talk with your spouse about it first.

4. Keep it rolling

– don’t get stuck in the feast/famine wheel because it will kill you

– keep advertising

– test what works for you and your clients

– have a follow up scheme

– have a client vetting process
