GWan's Web Design Progress Thread

[GWan]

Hi everyone,

Decided it was about time to start a progress thread for my web design business. I bought Fox's course back in November 2017. Since then, I have completed a few free websites and closed 2 sales for $300 & $1000. Both of these clients were found through cold emailing small businesses.

I'm creating this progress thread because I want to keep myself accountable. Back in November, selling a website for $1000 seemed impossible but I still think I could be moving faster and spending my time better.

Here are some of my goals:

1. Make $5000/month through helping businesses by February 28, 2019. This will allow me to quit my FT job. I think 6 months is enough time to accomplish this.
2. Be location independent by September 2019 and move to somewhere in Asia. I studied abroad in Singapore 2 years ago and loved traveling around Asia.
3. Learn copywriting, sales, marketing and social media management. I chose these skills because I think they are all useful for any business and they will help me the most in the future.

Currently I'm working on completing the $1000 website. I have also been sending a lot of cold emails but it doesn't seem to be working. Instead of focusing on quantity, I will start focusing on quality and sending a few very personalized cold emails a week. I'm also reading Cashvertising and working towards improving my copywriting skills.
