Salma chats to Steve about how she did it, how she’s grown her business since then, and how she keeps it all running smoothly.

Show Notes

Salma made her first $3 online by selling a digital planner on Etsy. As she worked to grow that product-based business, Salma fell in love with design and began developing her skills. In time, she built a portfolio and a second, service-based business.

Salma chats to Steve about setting up processes, staying organised and using content and social media to demonstrate expertise and bring clients to you.
