If you want to make money online, you shouldn’t focus on the window dressing of your business.

You don’t need an LLC right away. Nor do you need a fancy website or a cute logo.

Most people focus on window dressing (out of fear) and it just makes things harder:

• They waste time and effort

• Deep down they know these tasks don’t move the needle

•Avoidance of the needed tasks just creates more fear

Instead, Focus on the Activities That Move the Needle

In short, you want to focus on activities that help you move the needle.

By ‘move the needle,’ I mean sell shit and make money.

If you freelance:

Create a solid Linked profile describing your services & choose a niche to specialize in

  • Pitch 100 companies on LinkedIn
  • Land 10 zoom calls, make an offer & book 3 clients on retainer
  • Repeat until you have enough $$ to quit your job

If you create content and want to make courses:

  • Create content to attract attention & build an email list
