Programmers/Designers/Marketers: What is the most profitable freelancing to sell?

[Lucasxp64]

Is doing generic WordPress-like web service setups for professionals and small businesses still worth it?

What about setting up LLM chatbots? But what if the client is stupid, and he has less than 10 page visits per month, and what they actually need the most are more leads?

What I mean specifically... Is the combination of the marketing/client acquisition process alongside what kind of specific service you provide.

Obviously, there are somethings that are very hard and complex to do and naturally demand a premium, but I suppose it's hard to find clients to sell it to, like very custom full stack or mobile/desktop apps with native code.

I don't have a design/programming portfolio yet, but I did many automation projects for myself, and other ideas that I didn't execute to completion because of being concerned that project would be unnecessarily complicated. I don't feel much passion for wanting to do basic website setups, but that's at least something that can be done in a reasonable amount of time and with no crazy unknowns. 

I'm open to hearing  your experience on it. I didn't do any freelancing in those areas yet, and I'm open to hearing how you did it, what portfolio pieces, or the testimonials you collected, or how you built some proof of work or excellence of any kind, and how you got yourself your clients.

I want something that I can that would allow me to get paid as I improve my skills, I'm too perfectionist, and I get stuck when I'm not seeing money coming about the feasibility or necessity of that skill that I might not even be relevant for a real project.

I don't have a degree per say in computer science, but I know my way around, and I'd know what I need to learn. Like I can identify what design patterns or algorithms, the different performance and pricing and complexity considerations, that I might need for something but I don't have real world experience with getting paid yet in that area.

I'm also open to getting into just marketing/sales if that is more profitable than coding.

I prefer a complete project execution than just the UI/UX design aspect because I'm a wannabe entrepreneur and I like at least imagining how a whole well-polished software product should behave and how it would be executed.

I'm just kinda lost about how the real world markets operate right now and that is stifling my skills, because I'm very pragmatic-minded when I'm learning.

Obviously, I'm proficient in english, and I know how to communicate well.

I have a good acumen in software, design and marketing lingo. But I have no real-world experience yet.

I've been also questioning if I need to necessary be the one providing the service or owning a product, if finding the clients and closing sales is already hard, might as well just focus on that, because flow state is definitely not cheap and I'm sure if it's so easy to me mentally switching between client acquisition and delivery of the service, and even choosing what service to provide and not getting stuck with essentially just a glorified job. My goal is to eventually actually scale things. But right now what I need is at least some 100-200 dollars per month so I don't have to get some minimum wage job at something generic that is not even related to those areas. I'm in a low living cost country living with my parents.

If somebody paid me 200 bucks per month to code for them all month, I'd do it. Because even though the pay wouldn't be that great just basically a minimum wage job around here, at least I'm getting paid to improve a skills that I can use career-wise.

Or maybe getting paid to getting trained on doing that kind of guerrilha sales, specially for selling software/services along the lines of what I said above. Because then I can get paid to improve those on skills.
