I was able to do two small websites at $5k per + $3.5k in design consulting in a month. It's not $20k but I also wasn't killing myself either. It wouldn't be easy, but it's certainly attainable.

I think the bigger issue here is that $20k is insignificant. If you've already got a full-time job and you're working on this venture as a side-hustle you don't need the $20k. If you're working on this venture full-time and it's your only gig you'll need more than $20k. So I'm not entirely sure where this model fits.

how did you come across that opportunity and how did you land the gig?

One of the website gigs was from the monthly seeking freelancer post here on HN.The two other leads came through dribbble.com (this was nearly a year ago now). The landing part was pretty easy. Just sent my offer and they accepted.
