Show notes

Kevin Meng grew his freelance business 100% organically not using any freelancer websites when he was starting out, at least none that actually gave him any return.

The traction started when Meng reached out to a blogger with a personal email then followed the advice given to him.

He hustled hard at the start, sent cold emails, and ignored the voices in his head to grow to $3k a month from nothing.

Find out the process Meng used to get started and face inevitable obstacles.
