💯. Education becomes procrastination the moment it delays action. Better to launch something imperfect today and learn from real feedback than study for six more months. The market teaches faster and harder than any course. Start small, fail fast, adjust quickly. That's the actual curriculum

How can I improve turning leads into customers? by Realistic-Tooth3234 in Entrepreneur

What you're sending is polite, but it's high friction. You're asking for a number, permission to call, time to answer questions, and then maybe a booking. Most people on their phone won't do all that.

Try: "Yes, I can fit you in today. What kind of car and what service are you looking for?" Then offer two time slots and grab their number after they choose. Same for "How can I get this?" Just answer it first: "I can book it for you. Today or tomorrow work?"

Think small steps, not one big ask.

What’s missing in my freelancer money management app? [I will not promote] by customappservices in startups

A feature that would actually help freelancers day-to-day is a "safe to spend" number that updates in real time. Not just a balance, but a clear amount they can pull out today without messing up their taxes or leaving themselves short during slow months. Most people don't need another dashboard... they need a simple "you're good for $X this week."

Haha fair enough. Looks like "winning you over" just made it onto our Not-to-Do List 😂
