Moved to Scottsdale, Growing a Web Design Firm
GOLD!So...... how would one set this up? Potentially with automation tools like Zapier for when invoices are taken care of, it alerts the team via Slack, creates a new job in Asana and assigns tasks to VAs.

Moved to Scottsdale, Growing a Web Design Firm
GOLD!Have you considered increasing your rates? Couple that with increasing value, that will give you the resources to make everything happen.

How not to get f*cked when outsourcing code?

Moved to Scottsdale, Growing a Web Design Firm
GOLD!Brutal to hear about this pain in the a$$ client. I've had to deal with them and can tell you from experience, your 'spidey sense' will be 100X stronger now with these kinds of business owners. Also, if it's possible, can you post or DM the contract that you have in place?- CoderSales

27 minutes or less: How to cold call prospects while dealing with a dayjob?
SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGNTough situation. Here's what I would (and have done) do: send cold emails on Sat & Sun. Keep the emails to 3 lines! Nobody reads email pitches/presentations that are 4 paragraphs long. Just short and sweet, 'here's what I can do for you' format, provide them value. In the event you get a...- CoderSales
