I learnt the hard way that selling a project idea you're not 100% sold on leads to disappointment.

But how do you sell yourself?

Start by making sure you have defined a clear purpose for the project. Then make sure you look at the results, measures of success, and added value involved.

If these things don't inspire you then you can forget about getting clients to commit to buying from you.

Ask yourself if you're truly excited about the purpose and results it delivers.
