Do your job well. ___ I see a lot of people frustrated about content in social media that tells them that everyone can make EASY money with N8N and shares their templates and courses - you start to feel like you're missing something when everyone around you is successful. These people are lying to get their own benefits from AI trends - they make money on content/education, not on real projects. Most of them never tried to build something that actually works or acquire real clients. Most of the templates are just pieces of crap, stolen three times over. That’s why people jump into the real world after their courses and can’t make even a penny with the knowledge they’ve acquired. Many people teach how to sell solutions, not how to build them. As a result, the market is full of crappy agencies with zero-experience people trying to trick clients and make junk that never works. I spent 5 years among such agencies and saw hundreds of thousands of dollars spent on solutions that never made it to production. ➡️ So, how do you do real stuff and make money without pushy sales techniques? I’ve made $5k per month for the last 3 years in a country where the average salary is $800. Do I do sales? No. Cold outreach? No. Upwork? Not anymore, I was banned. So, where do I get most of my clients? Relationships. People trust people, not ads. ➡️ How do you build relationships from scratch? Get your first projects for free to gain experience and meet new people. Help others in communities, whether you know the answer or not. Content is a part of building relationships, because through your content people get to know you and feel closer to you as a person. Choose one social media platform and share your knowledge, your cases, and interesting finds from the internet. You don’t need a lot - in reality, you just need to do 1-3 projects really well and build relationships with those clients. If you make them money with your solution, they will come back to you over and over again. Half of my clients come back even after years because they know I can provide quality solutions and really help them.
