Turn what you built into work

  1. Find a business with a task it repeats by hand: answering the same messages, copying orders into a spreadsheet, booking by phone.
  2. Adapt what you built in this course to that task and show it working. Your task's proof is your demo.
  3. Do the first setup for a small fee or free, and ask for a review that describes the result in return.

A suggestion, not a promise of earnings.
