Dear BHW-Diary, I'm starting my Journey

I was amazed by the endless opportunities the internet has to offer. At a young age I started venturing through IM, and failed. I let it rest a few years and now I'm back. Thanks to BHW. I'm willing to put much effort in becoming an Entrepeneur. To be honest the standard lifestyle isn't fit for me. I hate it and I want to be my own boss.

I'm from germany and studied communication-/fashiondesign and I want to bank with my passion.
At the moment I have 3 websites/projects which didn't made any money and I'm dead certain to change that.

Project #1:
I'm offering free webdesign and charging a monthly fee for hosting. Current earnings -80?

Project #2:
A fashion related blog which isnt saturated at all, in Germany. Current earnings -20?

Project #3:
An amazon-niche-blog for men. Current earnings -70?

I'm focussing on #1 and #2 for the moment.
Tommorow I will start my business officially by telling my goverment about it.

Let's roll!

Good luck for your journey mate.. I love to read journey .. Keep us update through your journey..
 
I always love a thoroughly thought out Journey thread, just makes me feel all fuzzy wuzzy inside.

Best of luck to you OP, I'll probably be checking in every now and then!

Cheers
 
I think it might be total loss

yea, it's total loss so far.
I'd burn through my starterbudget extremely fast if these cost were recurring.

Thanks for the support! I appreciate it!
 
the second day, guys.

After I created this thread yesterday I tried coldcalling possible clients. It went okay, I guess. Made 15 calls and 2 resulted in interest. I have to work on being more confident but it was a good start.

I also reached out to a few facebook friends which resulted in 5 possible clients so far. Pretty excited about that!
Meetings are sheduled for next week.

Today I registered my company so I can legally start now. Or so I thought. My bank of choice closed very early today and I didnt made it there. I have no business bank account and have to wait til monday to open one. That's kind of a downer because I wanted to walk through my city and hit some business owners up with direct deals about advertising on my website in their niche (created yesterday "DentistLeyton"-method").

I don't want to use my private account because it will get really confusing after a few clients.

I thought about going out and getting the first payment in cash but I'm afraid that it will look scammy.
Does someone have an idea how I can make cash today in a way it won't look unprofessional and scammy without a business bank account.

Best regards and thanks for your support,
Dani
 
Still waiting for bankapproval. I laid back on the weekend. Well, not really I build the fashionwebsite and connected it with amazon. If someone want to take a look, shoot me a pm.

I'm having a job interview today in a webdesign firm (department design) for a part time job. Let's see how this will go.
On thursday I'm going to move in my new apartment which is currently without internet. Maybe I will have to make a forced vacation but we'll see about that.

This journey is just building its base right now. I hope it will take off as soon as my bank accout got approved.
Cheers,
Dani
 
Update!

I moved into my new appartement, I got my bank account and my fashion site is taking of slowly ( 3 clicks to amazon ). And I go my first webdesign client. It's going slow, but it's working.

Will update with more details tomorrow!
 
Cha-ching. Success is near, I smell it.

Just ranked on Big Gs first page for the two words my url contains (...yiha..), it's slowly gaining momentum on facebook (thanks to like jacker) and I made around 5 bucks from adsense on the last 3 days.

If someone want to take a look at it, shoot me a pn. I would post the website, but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post links. Would love some feedback :)!

I'll keep you updated!

Best regards,
Dani
 
You can give me a pm with the link if you want me to take a look at it. Better not make it public here, haters are everywhere.

Good luck!
