What could you do to earn $100 right now? All self-employed creatives have days where it feels like cash flow is non-existent or nobody will buy from us ever again and we'll never see another client. That can batter our self-esteem and our confidence.
But what if you could do something right now that could earn you $100? And what if you could turn that into something that earns $100 every day? And then... what if you came up with a second idea that could make you $100 in a day... and so on? Soon you could have multiple, achievable revenue streams that are bringing in three or four hundred dollars a day and that, friends, is a 6 figure a year creative business.

And She Looked Up Creative Hour Podcast
