I've been wanting to go full time into digital marketing for years.
I've finally sold up my cleaning business in Ireland and moved to Portugal.
One, I wanted sunshine and a better lifestyle. Two, I wanted to go somewhere cheaper and build this business with the money I've saved. Three, I missed out the NHR scheme so can't get the tax benefits
I currently sit at €1200 a monthly reoccuring income.
I've managed to pick up a few carpet cleaning clients over the past year without really trying. I've been doing google ads, web design and SEO for them and it basically grew from one guy I knew who recommended someone else and they recommended someone else.
I've had 2 of those guys for one year now and even managed to pick up one from the US.
I priced cheap because I wanted to show results.
I'm ready to do this now before all my money runs out.
My plan to get more clients is:
I've been creating Tik Toks, YouTube shorts and LinkedIn videos recently. I've only been posting about 1 week now but already seeing a bit of traction on LinkedIn.
I have Sales Navigator and Dripify automation set up so I can reach out to business owners.
I have my cold email system set up to start sending cold emails. Maybe I'll start at 20 a day.
I'm in Facebook groups everyday answering any questions about SEO, Google ads and Web design.
I've also met someone here in Portugal who has quite a successful agency back in the UK. He wants to work with me and help get me clients.
I've created a landing page on Unbounce and started a low budget google ads campaign for people looking for a Google ads freelancer in Limerick where I'm from.
I'm hoping this post can help people in the future who want to do the same.
