When I talk to prospective clients, I often hear things like:

"I need help! I have to make this business work...it just has to work. I'm so committed to making it happen, but right now I'm stuck."

And then this is inevitably followed up with the reasons why the can't make it happen and how X, Y, and Z are not in their budget. 

Here's what they're forgetting...and maybe you are, too.
