commented question | How long does it usually take to acquire clients? I should add that I live in a very central neighborhood in DC, and would offer all services -- dog- walking as well as dog-sitting. |
asked a question | How long does it usually take to acquire clients? I currently work full-time but am strongly considering quitting my job and taking care of dogs instead. I'm a musician and am looking for employment that's not quite as time-consuming as my current gig. I get the sense, though, that I won't be able to jump into a full pet-care schedule right away upon leaving my job -- I won't be able to first secure clients and THEN quit -- but instead will have to wait a while before my schedule fills up. My question is, about how long will I have to go without income? If I were to quit my job and have a wide-open schedule, about how long would it take for me to acquire enough clients to earn roughly $400 to $600 per week? I realize that may be a tough question to answer, but I'd like to get as accurate a sense as possible ahead of time of how much I could expect to earn, and how quickly, so that I don't quit my job and then end up homeless! Hope that makes sense! |
