Get Your First Customer - Your Next Step After Starting a Business

Ultimize. You've reached the end of this series, and I want to leave you with a final assignment rather than a farewell. Within the next 24 hours, have one real conversation with one real person about your business using your one sentence, the one that's about them, not you. Your first paying customer is on the other side of one of those conversations. And every conversation after that gets easier. Remember what you now know that most people never learn. Revenue solves nearly every problem a new business could face. Nobody cares about your reasons. They care about their problems. Your day job isn't your cage. It's your anchor client. Your idea is worthless until someone pays for it. So prove it small and prove it soon. And when doubt gets loud, return to your 2-minute reset, then get back to work. If this series helped you, share it with one person who keeps talking about someday starting something. Someday is a conversation away. I'm your host, TJ Walker, and this has been a production of Ultimize, the world's largest personal development podcast, audiobook, and online learning network. Now go get your first customer.
