Manage episode 411457177 series 2826369
In a world where hustle and the pursuit of "more, more, more" are glorified, it’s important to take an alternative perspective. While I am proud to have gone from earning $30,000 to hitting $250,000 in my first full year as a freelancer, it didn’t come without mistakes along the way. The valuable lessons I learned were not just about what I did, but also about what I intentionally did not do. Here, we’ll cover the five things I didn't do that contributed to my success, and provide actionable steps for hitting revenue goals as a freelancer.
Topics Covered In This Episode:
- Key focus areas for success: attracting consistent clients, becoming an expert in your field, and building scalable systems.
- Don't charge by the hour - move away from hourly fees and transition to package pricing for services.
- Specialize in one or two services rather than offering a laundry list of services to become known as an expert in your industry.
- When considering hiring a team, ensure your business is set up to support them and that you are still profitable.
- Focus on sustainable, predictable, and profitable business strategies instead of quick-fix schemes or easy buttons.
- Sequence is important in business growth - prioritize the necessary steps for your current stage rather than jumping ahead.
- Prioritize consistent clients, expertise in your field, and scalable systems as a freelance business owner to drive success.
