I finally got things set up so my company can accept debit cards, checks ect. Yesterday I got my first electronic sale, which was cool lol.
Which means I can now post pictures of my sales. I wanted to post this picture of what I did yesterday. This lady should have been charged $720 (average local industry price would have been $950) she is a single mom with two babies and not a lot of money. I felt bad so I charged her $300. After all overhead cost I made $231 in profit yesterday. Was there about 4 hours. Then I went home and finally took a day to myself, just watched tv and then did some work later that night.
I am raising prices.
I have another simple job set up Friday which is $360. I just got a call about another one. Although I did not make a killing this week, I am going to end up clearing $1k for the week. Job time is under 20 hours total for the week. I also had to turn down a great job. I've switched marketing strategies and, for the most part, my sales are coming to me. I'm working on growing that.
My business is really starting to pick up. I am getting about 3-5 jobs a week now. I have connections calling me and sending me jobs, people calling from business cards, I have a car magnet (lol), I have some deals with ad companies in progress, social media, and many other things.
In under a few months I am going to automate the main aspects of the business. Personally, I think it will and can be done within a month from today.
I am just aiming at $100 day in passive income. Then I will work on growing that. I will take that money and invest it in the business, and other businesses.
The partner situation is hazy. Still, no one has signed. I wont even get into it because it would take way too long to type and even harder to explain.
To throw an even bigger kink in the partner situation. I was approached by a individual who wants to invest a decent size chunk of cash into the business, and be a active partner. So to sum all of that up, I have a lot on my mind as far as possible options.
A lot of different things I'd like to talk about, but for now I will just leave it for later.
Overall, the doom and gloom feeling I had is starting to fade away. I have been stashing money into my business accounts. Worse case scenario I just pull money from there and pay all my bills for that month. (until/if partners sign paper I have 100% authority to do that at will) I feel financially safe. And the business is really starting to pick up. Still have significant issues though.
I am going to occasionally post updates on my sales figures with pictures.
I hope everyone is doing well. If you have not jumped in, just do it. It is so fun and thrilling. I have a purpose and goals in life now because of it. My favorite part is I am beholden to no one. No boss is telling me where to be for 8 hours of my day.
