If you're just getting started, it is crucial that you believe in what you're doing and begin to delegate the work you havent mastered. Learning how to design a logo, spending countless hours preparing your marketing material, will increase the amount of time it takes to scale your business. Focus on revenue producing activities, that means, making the sale, doing the work, vs. learning a new skill set.
Unless you intend to build a marketing agency, I would recommened that you immediately begin to delegate your branding, webdevelopment, and content development. Your focus should be scaling your business. If you have $0 in your account for marketing, do word of mouth, offer refferal programs, and grow your business to a financially viable place where you can at least invest $500 a month on marketing. Some marketing is better than no marketing!
People will advise you to get a loan to start your business, but before you do that, consider finding mentors who have developed businesses like yours. Many businesses fail within the first 3 years, and you want to ensure you are spending your loans, if any, strategically. The best way to do that is by working with people who have already done what you're doing.
Believe it or not, if you have a 750 credit score and income, you can qualify for a $100K business loan. I am not recommending you take out a massive loan. I am letting you know its possible.
