Consider offering "productized services." An approach that will save a lot of time.

1. Define your exact service scope 2. Research market rates 3. Set up clear terms & conditions 4. Create a solid contract template 5. Have basic business insurance (optional for start, it's quite expensive) Hope this helps!

Definitely start by identifying your target audience and understanding their needs. Then, productize your services into clear offerings with set pricing. Document your processes to ensure consistency. Finally, showcase your expertise through case studies, testimonials, and thought leadership content to build trust. Taking these steps upfront will set you up for success!

Productized services are definitely the way to go. Key steps: 1) Clearly define your service offering and scope 2) Set a fixed price rather than hourly billing 3) Create a standardized process to deliver the service efficiently 4) Promote the packaged service offering on your site and to your network. It takes some upfront work but will save you tons of time in the long run on sales and delivery.
