Default My Advertising Worked...

View Top 3 Awards  
and now I have people ringing me up booking me for photography shoots.

Anyone who runs their own business.... were you scared when you started up?

I feel like a bit of a fraud for some reason...
Of course I know I'm just going to go there and do a pro job and not stress about it but I am still scared.

Is this normal?

Am I normal?


Ok, scratch that last question.

yes its natural and you`ll probably question yourself over your first invoice too was it to dear didi i chargeenough it does however become second nature and you start to say kirching in your head each time you write one

I feel like a bit of a fraud for some reason...
Of course I know I'm just going to go there and do a pro job and not stress about it but I am still scared.

Is this normal?

Am I normal? no but we knew that anyway

A that's wonderful news, well done :cheer:

Don't stress you know you'll do the job right Then they'll all spread the word and soon there won't be enough hours in the day!

Yes it's normal to be scared when starting out, I started my own business, (hairdressing shop) at 21, scared to death I'd sit all day with nowt to do! Was all fine and so shall you be

Ok, scratch that last question.

I find that I get that feeling when I am successful in getting a job!!!Not so much fraud but you talk yourself up at interview and then panic and think OMG - can I really do this???

Whether that is normal who knows.....

Default Re: My Advertising Worked...

sounds perfectly normal to me ... although i have to admit that unlike steve i never quite got passed the feeling - i just got used to it and got used to ignoring it

it is great that your advertising worked - i think that getting the advertising right is one of the hardest things to do! fingers crossed that the phone keeps ringing
