I've been working on startups since I was 16. I'm 22 now and I've never built or made anything close to what I'd consider a success. In the last 4 years I've worked extremely hard, dedicating nearly all my free time to planning, building, learning, networking and reading about startups/business with no success. What I find frightening is just how hard it is to judge ones ability, especially when it comes to something as complex as ones ability to create a successful business. I personally believe I have what it takes, but I have to accept all evidence would suggest otherwise. We've all seen the contestants on game shows such as X-Factor that truly believe they're something special when they can't even sing on pitch. Maybe that's me in my own domain. Maybe that's you?
Aside from cold calls what are some good ways to obtain clients?
