Wondering how to find the cash for what you know you need but feel you can't afford?
When prospects tell me that they'd really like to work with me to make more money in their businesses, but cash flow is a problem, I offer this list of 14 ways to generate some quick cash.
The great thing about this list is that most of us can generate about $2k if we did all of them at once, or easily create at least $100/month if done regularly. And since my services come in at under $100/month, we're in business, baby!
