The Hardest Part
Mar. 7th, 2015 08:17 amI haven't updated here recently, mostly because my life has been silks and business, and for the last week or so I've been driving myself rather harshly trying to get Autumn Care & Crossings up and running.
I have a website (http://www.autumnvet.com in case you missed it!). And a phone line, and I'm all set up to take new clients. The only problem? I don't have any clients.
I've been working obnoxious hours trying to get the word out. I've set up webmaster tools, and made a Yelp page, and sent out press releases to over a dozen local newspapers, and designed and printed brochures, and spent most of a week driving around handing out brochures and cards to clinics I've worked at in the past. I've asked folks to spread the word (hey - if you're reading this? Tell people I exist).
And now.... I wait. And worry, and wait, and worry.
I know it's been less than two weeks. I know these things take time. But I also need income to pay my bills. And... I've poured my heart and soul (and savings account) into this, and I'd hate to see it not just fail but never even start.
I'll get there. Clients will come. It'll just take a while.
I hope.....
