What's the #1 thing holding you back from monetising your knowledge online?

Reply below — I'll give you one specific tip based on your answer.
Every 1hr today, take out time to intentionally tell yourself this: I will succeed in this life, nothing stops me, not self or anything else.
You will never know how much power you have over your life until you start speaking positively and see the universe respond in your command.
Happy Thursday.
The first $500 I got was in 2025
Guess what?
It was from a cold email I sent to a foreign company in Australia, and I got a design gig.
At the time, I wasn’t the most experienced designer.
I didn’t have a huge portfolio.
I didn’t have thousands of followers.
What I had was a simple offer, a willingness to reach out, and a message that landed in the right inbox at the right time.
One thing I’ve learned after working with clients across different countries is this:
Knowing who to contact is important. Knowing when and how to contact them is just as important.
A good percentage of the struggle freelancers, designers, marketers, developers, and creatives face isn’t always a lack of skill.
Sometimes it’s timing.
Sometimes it’s sending messages when your prospects are asleep.
Sometimes it’s writing cold emails that sound like everyone else’s.
Sometimes it’s reaching out without understanding how people in different countries work, think, and make decisions.
Some people don’t need to actively look for jobs because referrals bring opportunities to them.
Others have to send cold emails, cold DMs, proposals, and outreach messages consistently.
And many times they’re met with nothing but cricket sounds.
Not because they’re bad.
But because they missed the timing, the positioning, or the approach.
That’s why understanding time zones, work culture, and client behavior can completely change your results.
For example:
🇦🇺 Australian business owners often check emails early while planning their day.
🇬🇧 UK professionals tend to be direct, task-focused, and efficiency-driven.
🇺🇸 US business owners often review emails during planning hours in the morning and again before wrapping up their day.
If your email lands when they’re deciding priorities, delegating tasks, or looking for solutions, your chances of getting a reply increase significantly.
The screenshots in this post break down some of the best outreach windows for Australia, the UK, and the US.
Will timing guarantee clients?
No.
But it gives your message a better chance of being seen.
And in a world where most opportunities come from attention, being seen is the first battle.
The goal isn’t to send more emails.
The goal is to send smarter emails.
Because sometimes the difference between getting ignored and getting paid is simply showing up at the right place, at the right time, with the right message.
And that single email might just become your next client.
