Two years ago I read Fox's thread about web design, and decided to stick to that model.
I got my first 5 clients in the first month via Facebook groups, but the money wasn't great.
In 2019 I found my niche, and during one client meeting, I discovered a need in that niche that could be solved with a software.
I had no idea how to create the solution, but I said I could do it, closed the deal for $5K and took the first deposit.
Then I realized that there already is a program the client described to me, and it's called Trello.
So I built them an advanced Trello board with custom functions, and kind of tried to explain that to them.
I found another company with the same problem, took another 5K, and created another Trello board for them, with slightly different functions.
There is only one problem...
I feel terrible. I hate doing this.
I hate going to client meetings and saying "yes" to solutions I don't know how to create.
I hate the feeling that this could go bad once they realize that I mostly didn't code anything.
But I brought them the solution, the value, so it doesn't matter if I coded it or not, right?
I don't know. What do you think, would you do this?
