That's what I went to school for.

And over time, I found myself really good at getting clients.

There were people who would pay me to design the logo in February, but my waiting list would be so long that I couldn't start until November.

So really long waiting lists.

For websites and logos.

And they just wanted me to design the logo.

They wanted my touch.

I was really good at framing myself.

And so I had other graphic design friends come to me like, how are you booked so much?

How do you have so much work?

Like, what are you doing to get clients?

So I started sharing what I was doing with my friends and then they sent their friends.

And one day I looked up and I realized I had more people paying me to show them how to get clients than I did actual like web design work.

And so I was like, well, this seems like a really good, I was enjoying it.

It was very fulfilling.

And so the kind of merged away from graphic design into, um, I don't, you want to call it marketing consulting or business consulting.

And I did that for a long time, scaled that up to a million dollars for several years in a row, very consistently.

Um, and then, you know, my life kind of turned upside down inside out in 2023.

And that's when I pivoted away from high ticket stuff to low ticket stuff and the rest is history.

Always super good.
