How Confident Were You Starting Your First Business and How's it Going? (alien.top)

At first, this may seem like a generic question but I feel some of us do not come from a background of their family running a business, so the risk associated with setting up shop on your own seems like a major risk, if you experienced this, How did you overcome this and start your own business?

I was beyond confident haha. Still am but confidence doesn't really go anywhere...

How's it going tho?... Kinda bad-ish. I manage a few corporations and those are doing okay, but my own, I really need to focus on. I finally got my websites kinda fixed up, and I also moved a lot of skills and businesses into their own names instead of all under 1 name. That has really helped me because having it all under 1 was getting me.... Frustrated

Now the problem is finding clients. My services are very per client and chasing each client has been a hurdle for me. I've decided to try cold leads with some sales representatives, we will see how that goes... Maybe some appointment setters, idk

Wish me luck!
