I spent 1 month learning. Made $0. Then changed ONE thing.
Watched every tutorial.
Read every guide.
Joined every community.
But my bank account? Still at zero.
I stopped learning and started asking. Instead of building "another practice workflow," I messaged 15 businesses on LinkedIn:
"𝐈 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐞 𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲. 𝐖𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐞 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐚 𝟏𝟓-𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭?"
9 ignored me. 4 said no. 2 said "sure, why not?"
That "sure, why not?" turned into:
  • 30-minute discovery call
  • $800 project
  • My first real client testimonial
  • 1 referrals in the next month
The brutal truth nobody tells you:
You don't need to master n8n. You don't need another certification. You don't need the "perfect workflow template."
You need ONE conversation with ONE person who has ONE problem you can solve.
That's it.
Here's my question for you:
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭'𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐚 𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐓𝐎𝐃𝐀𝐘?
(Be honest. No judgment. Just trying to understand what's holding people back so we can help each other move forward.)
Drop your answer below 👇
Maybe your block is someone else's solved problem.
