Starting my first SMMA business!

[HunterN]

So here we are. I'm tired of my 9-5 job not going anywhere and I want to try something for myself, and what I've been looking very much into is Social Media Marketing Agency. I've been taking Iman Gadzhi's course, and some other readings about Facebook ads, copywriting etc, and hoping I'm soon ready to start reaching out to my first clients. But I'm an overthinker, I feel like I always have to learn more, read more, understand more before doing something.
I've heard a lot about you're only 1 client away from this and that. Financial FREEDOM. But I assume it's a lot more work than what these "courses" tell us, buyers, what it is.

To the others who started something like this (succeeded or not), What is something you wish you knew or that someone else told you when you first started with this?

Just do it.

But I didn't need anyone to tell me that. I just did it.

The client side-- sales, communication, collection, etc, is much more challenging than the actual technical aspects.

Also, you will get rejected. A lot. Just be ready and keep a thick skin without taking it personally.

Do not rely on your first, or any one client, to get you to "financial freedom". Be patient, aim to help, and be ready for it to take longer than you think.

Good luck!

How is it going so far? Did you take the course?
