It's hard to start earning money if no one knows that
you're available to work. You need to tell your family
and neighbors about your skills before they can ask
for your help.

Think about the last movie you saw. How did you find
out about it? Maybe you saw a preview, heard about it
from your friends, or noticed a poster. Those advertisements
probably cost thousands of dollars, but you can tell
people about your services for a lot less.
Start simply. What better way of finding out if anyone
wants lemonade than by asking aloud? Your voice can
be a pretty powerful tool for announcing that you want
to work. So can a marker and some paper.
For instance, Malik went right up to his neighbors
and offered to walk their camels for $5. Later, he made
notices and put them under his neighbors' doors. Now
he walks six camels per week and earns $30.
Once you've begun working, keep in mind that
the best way to spread the word is to do a great job.
If people like what you do, they'll tell their
friends, and your good reputation will find you the
most work of all.
