The First 10 Customers: Low-Cost Ways to Get Paid Fast

Practical, low-cost ways to get your first (or next) 10 paying customers without fancy funnels or big ad budgets.

Before you worry about scaling, funnels, or ads, there’s one milestone that changes everything:
👉 Your first 10 real, paying customers.
This session is all about scrappy, repeatable ways to find and close those early clients, especially if you’re service-based, consulting, coaching, creative, or running a small product business.

This is for you if:

• You’re just starting and haven’t landed your first few clients
• You’ve had some random wins, but nothing consistent
• You want simple actions you can take this month, not a huge strategy project

We’ll cover:

• Where your first 10 customers usually come from (hint: not strangers on the internet)
• 5 low-cost, low-tech ways to find leads
• How to talk about what you do in a way that feels natural, not pushy
• Simple follow-up habits that quietly bring in business

Format:

• Short teaching
• Real examples
• Small-group sharing (“What’s worked / what hasn’t”)
• Optional hot seats to workshop your outreach plan

You’ll walk away with:

• A simple outreach plan for the next 2–4 weeks
• 3–5 concrete actions you can take immediately
• More confidence talking about your work without feeling awkward
