Let’s Go Back to March 2022

My first big project was a complete psychics consultation platform with user dashboards, admin panels, and real-time chat, audio, and video calling.

The legacy PHP system had around 22 header files to deal with.

The deal was PKR 70,000. The client sent me PKR 10,000 in advance, and I was so excited that I spent PKR 1,000 celebrating! 😂

Then reality hit. I got stuck, refunded PKR 9,000, and nearly gave up.

Five days later, I contacted the client again and asked for another chance. He trusted me, we renegotiated the project to PKR 90,000, and I completed it.

That relationship eventually brought me around PKR 400,000 in work. Later, the same client hired me for another separate psychics platform worth PKR 1 million.

I didn't close that next deal with a fancy sales pitch. I earned it by delivering the first project and building trust.

What's your biggest bottleneck right now: finding clients, technical challenges, closing deals, or scaling your business?

Let's discuss and learn from each other. 👇
