But… how many hours are billable? I guess you must have a good marketing site?

I'm not charging by hour, but per project. I have a marketing site, but I'm not getting new clients through my website. All of the new projects are through cold calling.

So you do two websites over the course of a week. You must do cold calling and outreach to maintain that momentum. You are not making $1k/hr. You have a ~$50/hr side hustle before you've paid your ±35-45% taxes.
