(P.S.) No you aren't going to be selling an e-book

Once I had finally stumbled upon my first taste of true success (web design) I could finally apply the principles I was reading on Twitter.

The construction industry is perfect for your first website build. Most builders don't want fancy websites they just want something that works.

STRUCTURING YOUR DEAL
- I always ask to be paid 50% upfront, and then the remaining on delivery
- I make Loom videos for how the client can set-up domains and clone the site to their Carrd account (sometimes the have me do all this for them but if not Loom is good option)
