I worked my full time job, scooped dog poop 7 days a week until the sun went down and did content creation for 3+ years before I grew large enough to quit my job and focus on my business full time. What really helped me grow was consistently being unreasonable with how much I was willing to serve my clients, leveraging their glowing testimonials on Facebook groups and ads, and being relentless on following up with leads and past customers. Just because someone says no today doesn't mean they won't need your services in the future.
Also what helped me a lot was joining groups specific to my industry and meeting/speaking with other business owners who were dealing with the same crap (pun intended lol) I was dealing with. It makes you realize that a lot of the problems you run into someone has already solved that issue and that you're not alone in the struggle.
Keep your nose to the grind stone, you'll be surprised with how far you can get if you don't give up!
