Long story short, I started my business two years ago, before my first year of college. No one took me seriously then, or really does now at first glance because I'm so young and have a baby-face.
Fast forward to this summer, signed my first big client, lets call him Charlie. Did great work for Charlie, the management loved me, and regularly told me they loved the work I did. Sadly the business started failing and they let go all the "Luxury Expenses" of which I am considered. Bummer.
Later that month i went to a restaurant, and while in the bathroom washing my hands, I made an off the cuff comment to the guy next to me about how the food here was amazing. Turns out he was a part owner in the restaurant and immediately hired me to work on several of his businesses, giving me around $3k a month just working from home.
Last week I get a call from Charlie, and it turns out that he actually does business with the restaurant owner. They both love my work and they want me helping out 2-3 more businesses they are opening up in the city.
On top of that, there is a huge new entertainment arcade that opened up in September in my city. They are so successful that they are already opening a new location. Coincidentally while there on a night out, I met the manager, got to talking, and he wants me to meet with higher management to get me signed on as well. My goal is to be making at least 10k per month by the end of the year.
I know my writing is terrible, but the moral of the story here is just don't be afraid to talk to everyone and anyone about everything and everything. If someone likes you, they will want to do business with you.
