    Some good advice here. Network as much as humanly possible while putting together a bad-ass website. If the name of your studio will be different than your actual name, then you need to register it as a DBA for $7. Once you get a few lucrative projects, I recommend becoming LLC—I'm in the same boat and that's my next move. It will offer legal protection that you'll hopefully never need, but it's totally worth a couple hundred bucks or whatever it costs in your state.

    Warm introductions are way better than cold calls, but cold calling a bit here and there can be worthwhile.

    • you can also join business networking groups within your cityrodzilla
