What’s the most terrifying phrase that hovers in the back of all our minds as a web designer and web business owner?

In the early days as a web designer, it’s common to say “yes” to any project that comes your way just to make some money and build a portfolio.

One of the benefits of being a web designer is your option to build recurring revenue.
