I just closed my first damn deal!

To be honest I trembled like a little rabbit the hours before, but when I shaked the CEO's hand it all got washed away and my brain tuned in for killer-mode. It turned out it was a meeting with several of the company's employees.

We began talking. Pretty easy stuff, didn't try to "sell myself in" in any way. Instead I did all I could to find ways to help them. They wanted a basic website, with the ability to implement a news section and a webshop in the future. Hence, I'm going for WordPress.

Damn... I just got a huge company as my first client.
