Had to pick between a big agency gig in LA or starting my own tiny studio here in Portland.
Went solo with just a laptop and a $5k loan, and the first six months were mostly just cold calls and ramen. Anyone else start their own thing and find the first client was the hardest to land?

Oh man, that first client... I think I still have the cold call shakes.

My first cold call lasted maybe 30 seconds.
