Pretty good. I became self-employed a little over a year ago and it feels like I've now reached the escape velocity where I no longer even need to advertise to get new customers. I ordered like 2500 new flyers last fall but only shared couple hundred of them and none since. I pretty much have the next 2 to 3 weeks booked full and new calls just keeps coming.

What field were you in? Happy to hear you're doing well!

Thanks! Plumbing and general home improvement/property maintenance. I believe "handyman" is the term used of people like me in the US at least.
