What's up guys. I just started a full time job last week to pay the bills. It only solidified in my mind how much I want my entrepreneurial journey to start taking off.

This year I had moderate success with my digital marketing agency. I managed a few projects and made a decent amount of money but nothing that was constant cash flow. I found success with cold calls, a few references and family friends. In a nutshell, it supplied a bit of money on the side but it's nowhere near enough for me to quit my full time job.

So I've got a few questions:
Aside from cold calls, how do you find constant leads?
Do FB Ads work for this line of work?
Are email lists worth it if my agency only focuses on web design?
Does LinkedIn have a good Return on Investment?

Any sort of advice will be greatly appreciated. Merry Christmas!
