Nice points. I do work from home right now remotely.

So I do have some extra time as I don't have to commute anywhere. Plus, at some point after 3-4 clients it won't be feasible to work alone, hiring and delegating tasks will be better.

I'm also thinking about how many clients can I take if I work full-time on Pentaclay. Maybe time and experience will say.

True! You raised a valid question.

With $2500 a month it's not likely you'll get 50 clients a month within a year. Unless you spend some crazy amount of money on marketing and influencers.

So the math is simple you grow with your client list and designer list parallely. So when there are 5 clients you might need only 2 senior designers to handle the workload.

Plus, I'm also a designer, I'll be working alongside until business goes into a certain position.

I'm working remotely from my home country and I'm getting paid almost $5000 a month working from home.

Imagine if you want to hire someone from the USA, UK, or other top-tier economic countries how much do you need to pay an 11+ years experienced designer?

At Pentaclay I started with $2500 a month which is almost half of what I'm getting paid as remote designer, so same quality with lesser price with no month-to-month commitment from the client side.

I hope you get the point.
