Moments later you get a response.
“Link didn’t work.”
You fix it hoping to generate some work.
The second response is from another marketing freelancer who’s stuck trying to launch their own site.
It’s on Wordpress. You offer to take a look.
Eventually you pass out.
Later that day your mom calls.
”Hey I saw your email. What is it again? Vi Zi Er media?
and that’s it. No further inquiries.
You share it on your new Instagram page where it gets a handful of likes but no clients.
A week later,
You’re sitting in the toilet checking your email when you get a message from Squarespace saying you’ve been listed in their Specialist directory.
Yes! (Fist pump)
You’ll definitely be able to leverage this to get clients.
Surely, within days you start getting emails from people who need Squarespace website help.
An architecture firm wants you to merge 2 templates.
You quote them 3k for the project.
They mail you a check for half and finally you’re in business.
Except…
What you thought was gonna be a copy and paste job, requires a lot more expertise.
You can push through and try to figure it out or you can hire another freelancer in ODesk (Upwork).
