    It went pretty good. I don't know if he is my ideal client though as he doesn't seem like he is all in on his business and is just testing out if it will work. He works a full time job and started this on the side, so he doesn't really have a big budget. And from past experience if you aren't...

    I actually have had clients in the past I have actually had three high paying clients before, $6k plus, and they was happy with my work. But then I lost confidence and starting doubting myself and I just completely quit trying to get more clients. I have a constant mental battle with myself...

    I have had potential clients and meetings setup before, but due to lack of confidence and feeling like a fraud I made excuses and cancelled them. If anything I want to use the meetings just to take action and get into the flow of talking to customers. But that's good advice, cause part of me...

    Thanks Fox, I am already offering a very good deal, for what he will be getting, I will just explain to him that the reason I am priced so low is because I am building my portfolio and trying to get my name out. The people I have called have been interested, because I am the only local web...

So...
