Earn system

Skill without a sale is just a hobby.

The loop that turns what you built in your domain sprint into an actual invoice — and keeps working after week 12.

The framework

The 5-step earn loop.

Runs once at the end of your domain sprint — then repeats for the rest of your career.

STEP 1

Package

Turn your domain deliverables into one defined offer — scope, timeline, price band.

STEP 2

Price

Anchor in NGN, list in USD. Tiered package structure, not a single flat rate.

STEP 3

Find

Work the six channels below, ranked by how fast they realistically land a first client.

STEP 4

Deliver

First real client engagement, run against a QA and handoff checklist.

STEP 5

Reinvest

Raise prices, refer overflow, stack a second domain. This step never really ends.

Step 3, expanded

Six ways to find your first client.

Ranked by how fast each one realistically lands a first client, not by how impressive it sounds.

Pick a domain, build your three deliverables, then come back here for week 11.
