Thanks for the support. Yep even for me, now when I tell this story, the mistakes I made seem obvious.

Selling is hard, and becomes close to impossible if like me, you don't know your target, and on top of that, you're socially anxious to talk to strangers and get a "no" as answer.

Client prospection requires specific skills I don't have and I'll probably never get.

Sometimes we (solo-dev people) need to be more humble and accept we can not do everything well. Or as an alternative, we need to find project ideas that suit our skills better (B2C would probably have been easier for me than B2B).
