I've started a new progress thread that is going to be focused on scaling pay per click freelancing until it becomes a high income cashflow business.
I hate the term Agency, but what I do know is that I don't wan't to get stuck in the weeds being a freelancer. While there is nothing inherently wrong with that, it isn't going to allow me to separate my time from money and sell the business, which is what I would like to have the option of doing in the future.
In my last progress thread I was scratching around, learning different types of marketing and trying to fumble my way into getting some clients.
I managed to save up around 6 months of living expenses and have two monthly clients on retainer (with a couple more in the pipeline). It was at this point I decided to leave my job as I needed to cut that safety net and give this a real go.
Why a PPC Agency?
Will update soon!

Why a PPC Agency?
- Low start up cost
- I've already got two paying clients that I'm getting results for
- Almost instant results and feedback where as SEO, Social Media takes time
- I like monthly cashflow clients, not one of projects
- I needed to just pick something instead of being 'the idea guy'
- Did @Andy Black google ads course (thanks andy)!
- As mentioned, two clients with a couple more potentially in the pipeline. I've been doing a free trial for a construction company, currently spent a lot of time on a new landing page, his google ads and I've managed to get him 8 leads so far for about 50 pounds per lead. He's happy with it and looking like he will continue

- Building a portfolio of case studies and reviews for my website and trying to work out my offer.
- Getting clients is a struggle, think I need to reread @Kyle T thread and start trying the methods on there.
- Productivity - some days I work 10-12 hours pretty much non stop, some days, only 6. I find it hard working from home and I need to get better at planning out my weeks.
- Not sure what the next step is which causes some negative thoughts and self doubt.
Will update soon!
