Starting a business- first two clients and I’m shitting it!

Recently started a companionship business with a friend. It’s for the elderly and along with household chores, shopping etc, we offer a bit of company for those who get a bit lonely. We got two calls yesterday. Our first calls! And I am so nervous! I have done this sort of thing since I was 18 and I’m double that now. Has anyone got any tips to feel more confident and look like I can totally do this!?!

Big smile. Check if it's companionship or chores required and crack on.
Well done you

Just behave the way a man would. They wouldn't go through all this self doubt - wouldn't occur to them to question whether they could do a role in which they had years of experience.
