Hey Fastlaners,
Been a while since I last posted on here, I previously started a window cleaning business and I managed to make some good cash from it. Business kind of died off as winter started and I decided not to continue with it. I realized it's not really the kind of work I can see myself doing every day, a bit too physically demanding for me. So I shut it down and got a new full-time job this month.
But from the experience of running the window cleaning biz I got experience in putting together a website, running ads, driving traffic to my website, converting leads into customers, and selling. I enjoyed those parts of the business the most and I realized I can transfer them to starting a marketing agency, which is something I've wanted to do for a while, but thought I had too little experience to do. However, I realize that was more of an excuse than anything. So I decided to just push forward and get started.
So, I'm starting this thread to record my progress as I start a marketing agency. I'll update it each week on Sunday.
Week 1 (Jan 15-21)
-Finished A 5.5hr Google Ads Course
-Figured out marketing agency niche and brandname, registered domain
-Did outreach to find my first client
-Got a call scheduled with a potential client for Monday morning.
I made a good amount of progress this week, although I need to improve my time management and organization so I can get more done.
For this next week I need to close my first client, get my google ads certification, and continue outreach to get more potential clients.
