Actionable Phases

Four phases. Six months.

Completing the first two phases would be my immediate goal and my sole focus to start.

My father owns two dry cleaners (Exciting industry - NOT. This doesn't matter though. I can't afford to be super picky right out of the gate).

Want help finding an experience project? Freelanship.com can find you a project for free.

So I would ask him to allow me to create a simple Wordpress website for his local business because every business needs to have an online presence. His digital marketing is seriously lacking so he would love my idea.

This one Wordpress website I will create for my dad will earn me:

  • Identity capital (proven professional experience)
  • A recent work sample
  • A repurposable product that is easy to resell for half the amount of work the next time around

Let's recap. I really like this product offering because:

  • It's one that's in-demand, and therefore easy to sell
  • I can easily create upsells, building returning customers, allowing me to:
    • Make more money
    • Build additional, complementary skills, again which would make me more money
  • I can easily create a vertical market toolkit, allowing me to earn double and do less work

Only after I complete Phases 1 and 2 would I move onto Phases 3 and 4. These phases are when I would start charging for my services - immediately upon my dad's satisfaction with his new Wordpress website - and then begin designing my digital footprint.

Phases 3 and 4 will set the stage for my professional life in which I do enjoyable, well-paid work and move out of my rents' place ASAP. #THANKGOD
