Wrapping up:
If you look at where you are at right now, is this the place you want to be at in 3 months, 6 months or even a year from now?
I am going to assume for some of you that answer is no.
Because that’s how I felt. I was longing for something more. And I keep hearing that from those of you who reply too my emails or introduce yourself in the group…
I’ve just laid out for you what you need to make this happen.
But what we didn’t have time to cover in this episode is all of the how and the strategy behind landing clients and growing your business.
Some of you may want to go the DIY route and try to see if you can figure it out on your own.
And some of you may be thinking you don’t actually want to go the freelancing route, and that’s okay! Keep searching. Keep looking for what it is you want to do!
However, some of you may decide that you are in, you are committed, and you want someone to walk you through exactly how to build a profitable freelance business ASAP.
And if that is you… I would love for you to check out my program overwhelmed to overbooked and see if that is what you are looking for!
But ultimately, I hope this episode was helpful for you to see just how possible it is to launch a freelance business.
You do not need any fancy things. A ton of start-up costs! Just these essentials!
