    I've got all the equipment I need to operate for the time being. I've been working from home for almost two years, so my overhead is minimal. I've got a bread/butter client that brings in consistent (retainer) income. But it's so much work I don't have time to look for new clients, manage the current workflow, and have a life all at the same time.

    Basically, I've maxed out on what one person can reasonably accomplish, I need to diversify (too much business flowing in one direction), but I can't afford to scale back, and reaching out to new prospects takes time.

    If I was still single I might just buckle down and work 24/7 till I have enough work to bring in more than occasional freelance support. But as a father and husband, that's not a responsible or sustainable option.

    • I have several other clients, but the work is more sporadic and the income they bring is a pittance compared to the one big client.gramme
