What it could make

Where $2.5K a month comes from
2 new sites a month at $600$1,200
24 care plans at $55 a month$1,320
A month, from about month 12$2,520
The honest bit. Month one is build fees only. Care plans take a year to stack up, and some clients will cancel, so give it longer.

Why this gap is real

17%

of US small businesses still have no website at all.

34%

of those think a site is not relevant to them, so expect plenty of no.

The catch

  • Most owners say no. Our maths assumes one yes in every 20 pitches.
  • Do not scrape Google Maps. Its terms ban mass downloads and building mailing lists from it.
  • Vercel’s free plan is personal use only. Host client sites on Cloudflare Pages, whose free plan allows client work.
  • Sales emails have rules. In the US each one needs your postal address and an opt-out you honour within 10 business days.
