Thanks for posting this. I just started my business a few weeks ago and while I may have a client coming on in July, and I have generated some interest, as of this moment I am clientless and getting a little down on myself. After reading your post I am reminded that it takes time and I am reminded to keep working at it. Thank you sooo much
