Website builders are like using a PowerPoint template. The good ones that aren't simple dead-ends will lock you in and charge you more than a freelancer.

You definitely need a website and business cards, and a non @gmail or @yahoo address at the minimum. It doesn't have to cost much, but it is probably not a good idea to DIY it since if you hire someone they'll do the work for you (and building a website w/ content is a lot of work)
if it's not a hell, yes, dont do it.
Well said.
Also, trust your gut. Sadly, when you need money these kinds of people can sense it.
I've been in business for nearly 30 years on and off and have never ever heard this advice. Literally never. You might be down a path of bad advice if this is what you are hearing.
