    Growing A Web Design Business From Zero

    SIDE HUSTLE WEB DESIGN 
    The painting company website is now up and running as of two days ago. I spent nearly every free hour of my time building this since early last week when I got the sale, including two 12+ hour days last Saturday and Sunday but I had a lot of fun doing it and it was completely worth it. It's...

    Growing A Web Design Business From Zero

    There are always exceptions but I am mainly looking to build websites that are just a one time charge to the client. Although this means I will probably miss out on some consistent recurring revenue, the clients I am trying to target right now generally won't need much maintenance anyways...

    I just took another free client on that I got through my Facebook posts. I wasn't sure whether I was going to do another free website but this is a very good client opportunity. They are a drywall repair company based in New Jersey, family owned with 5 employees, so a good niche and company...

    Yeah right now I am pretty much working with just HTML/CSS. I have learned a bit of Javascript but I haven't used it in any of my projects so far. You really don't need a ton of coding knowledge to start building websites that can provide great value to businesses. The design is just a small...

    It took a lot more hustling than I thought it would but I finally got my second client. After my last post I spent another week and a half cold emailing and calling businesses, and although I got a couple of responses, none of them were really interested enough and I couldn't sell them on the...

    Summary of the past week: A few days after my previous post I finished building my first website for Crexty. While I did not follow the system I would normally use (fox web school style) since I was building off what he already had (and he provided the content), the website turned out nice and...

    By this time next year I will... 1. Make 100k revenue with my web design business. I just got my first client last week so almost starting from zero but I know I can do this. This year I'll be hustling, working as hard as I ever have, and delivering great value to every client I build a...

    I got my first client this week! A few days ago @Crexty reached out to me through the forum and after some messages and a call I am now designing a free site for his commercial cleaning business. He had already done a portion of it but I am going in, adding some new pages, and making sure...

    I had a good call with Fox yesterday afternoon. We went over some of the things I was struggling with and we decided that I should go in a new direction with the business. To summarize the main points: I'll be getting off upwork and will turn my focus to cold emailing and calling businesses...

    Hey guys, It's been kind of a tough past few days. I did get my first job yesterday, did it pretty quick, and got a 5 star review. However, it wasn't related to web design but instead one of those customer service ones for 5 dollars that I got invited to. I had a pretty brutal week in terms...

    Quick Update: This afternoon I sent out my first 3 proposals on upwork; I'll post here anything comes out of them. Also, about an hour ago I received an email from upwork saying that I had been welcomed into their rising talent program? I found this confusing as I have no work history on the...

    Right now not super far but I think I have a good base. Along with the material in your course I've read Cashvertising and Spin Selling. I have several other books lined up for the next few months on both copywriting and sales but I would love to hear any that really helped you out. A big...

    Hello everyone, my name is Michael and I am currently a 16 year old high school student in New Jersey. I recently read The Millionaire Fastlane and it really opened my eyes to some of the misconceptions I had about the best ways to make money and how to get rich quick. I'm looking forward to...
