When did you quit your day job?
Just starting out in the business, one has to wonder when is it time to quit your day job?
The question seems easy to answer by just saying when enough commissions or work comes in. The problem that I've found is that when you have a full time job, finding time to paint, market, and also do other things that life needs you to take care of can be really hard.
How did you guys do it? Did you step down gradually as in going from a full time to part time? Did you just quit cold turkey and go for it? Did you keep the full time work and just paint and market after you left your day job for the day until you had a good flow of people?
I would also welcome any other advice that any of you could give me that might not be in this section already. Sometimes it feels like trying to crawl out of a well.
Thanks.
