From $0/mth to $5,000/mth challenge - marketing agency

[ryss]

Hi,

I was watching Matrix recently.

And inevitably, the famous line rolled in:



Dang! It made me think.

For the past few months, I haven't walked the path, and my income has dried up.

So I decided to get back on it.

Stop action faking and start action taking.

The problem is, I've made this commitment to myself before.

And I discovered I don't keep it when I'm accountable only to myself.

I believe it'll be different this time.

But..

"You can't keep doing the same thing and expect different results"

Of course.

I must do something different.

So I decided I'll be accountable to the people on this forum.

Hence this thread.

--

Now,

Let me share some details and self-imposed rules:

The challenge: Earn $5,000/mth online.
Time frame: ASAP
How: Service business - marketing agency.
Traffic: Various methods of cold outreach (email, IG, FB, LinkedIn).
Conversion method: Get people on the phone, diagnose a present pain, offer a solution.

I realize the only specific thing above is the $ amount. The rest is vague because I don't know how it's going to turn out. I plan to throw a lot of noodles on the wall and see what sticks. And then throw more of the same type. In other words: double down on what works.

I'll start where the herd is but I hope to discover some green pastures where the fresh gra$$ grows

--

I'll write my next report by Saturday evening (3 days from now).
In it, I'll include:

• what progress I've made
• how much I've worked
• what I've learned
• how I plan to improve.

--

That's it. Thank you for reading.

Please watch this thread - I'll try to share valuable lessons along the way.
