You know people who act before they think?
I’m kind of like that.
I don’t think too much before I act. I certainly don’t analyse things for days. Make quick decisions and act.
Sure, I’m wrong some of the time. But the benefits of acting (and being wrong some of the time) far outweigh the benefit of not doing anything.
Here’s how to get your very first web design client.
1. Check out web sites of local businesses
2. Find ones you think you can improve
3. Call the web site owner up and say “I can get your web site to make more money.”
Your aim with the call is to get a meeting. Once you have a meeting you make your offer. Easy.
It’s so easy that no one ever believes it can work. But it does.
Sure, you’ll get knock backs. But from every 100 calls you’ll make you’ll get at least 5 meetings.
Go get ‘em.

Absolutely right Brendon!
1. Action creates a reaction
2. Don’t overthink
3. Follow your instincts
Even easier is to just talk to the businesses you yourself frequent. The coffee shop, the baker,the dentist, the physical trainer etc. It’s easier than a cold call because you already know them.
