Those who don’t… Those who adapt…

Understand that a steady paycheck doesn’t always lead to wealth. Understand that having a 9-5 job doesn’t guarantee stability. Know that the world is getting smaller and virtual work is not going anywhere. And also know that working virtually is the “greener” way to work.

Don’t realize that there are secret costs for working for someone else.

A future of freedom, flexibility, and financial security is possible for those ready to adapt to the online virtual world.

You are here because…

You’d like to work from home, making the kind of money that will support the lifestyle you want to have. You are smart enough to know that the economy is changing for the better – through and virtual work, that suits the digital economy we are entering into.

Who this workshop is for…

• Moms who need flexibility in their

schedule

• College graduates that don’t want to start

at the bottom of the corporate ladder

• Empty nesters who have kids who’ve left

home and have time to dedicate to a new business

• Corporate burnouts who need to start

LOVING what they do again.

• Travel junkies who want the freedom to

travel and not be tied down to one specific location.

Basically...Anyone who feels that a traditional job is NOT for them.

“So why work from home? Isn’t it less stable than a regular job?”

“The competition is fierce and the market is crowded...”

“I don’t know what skills I have that I can market!”

“It’s just a fad that will go out of style as fast as it came in.”

So now that you know that freelance work is the work of the future… And the freelance business is the easiest and fastest way to begin making money… Let’s give you the four secrets you need to nail your success IN THE NEXT 30 DAYS!

Secret 1

Have a solid plan for getting the RIGHT clients.

Secret 1

Your plan should include:

• Client Avatar - Who you are going to help - get really specific
• Work Style - How much you want to work, what hours are you

available?

• Financial Goals - How much do you want to make each month
• Skills and Services - What skills will you offer?

Myth Buster...

Most freelancers think the best way to build a profitable freelance business is to get as much work as possible THIS IS BS.

Secret 2

Set up your ‘storefront’ in the right way

Secret 2

Here’s the bare bones of what you need to get started:

• A Facebook Business Page
• A LinkedIn Profile
• A Coming Soon Wall on Your Website

Myth Buster...

You need expensive branding and logo and website to attract the right customers. THIS IS ALSO BS.

Secret 3

Create an endless stream of possible clients with your marketing mojo.

Secret 3

3 Ways to Do This

• Facebook Groups
• Subcontracting
• RFPs through IVAA.org

Myth Buster...

Most freelancers think in order to be competitive, they have to be the lowest bidder on a job. THIS IS NOT TRUE.

Secret 4

Have a professional onboarding process.

Secret 4

Give them the Disney Experience

• You need a way to create quick and easy proposals
• You need a way to accept online Payments
• You need a way set of documents for welcoming them including a

Contract and a How I Work document

• You need a way to gather Feedback to get great testimonials!

Myth Buster...

Most freelancers think they have to know everything to be good. THIS IS ALSO NOT TRUE.

If you do everything we’ve just outlined, you should have several leads, if not several clients...within 30 days.

Tonya D.

“Within 8 weeks, I went from 0 clients with zero billable hours to 6 clients with over 50+ billable hours a week. With the support of Madelaine + Julie, I was amazed how quickly I was able to identify my ideal client, find my ideal client, and land my ideal client for recurring work.”

Jessie V.

• Replaced her full-time salary with part-time 25 hours a week.
• Used her network to make the connections she needed for client work.
• Learned higher level skills desperately in demand.

We know what you’re thinking…if it’s so easy why doesn’t everyone do it?

6 Common Pitfalls

#1 Mindset Issues

• Misunderstanding of their own money blocks
• Unsure and insecure
• Fear of lack
• Inability to see what “could” be
• Undercharging

#2 Not Knowing What To Do First, Second, Last

• Not investing the time and energy into creating a solid plan
• Trying to do everything and getting nothing done
• Not getting clear on what they actually want their business

to look like

#3 Not Valuing Relationships

• Freelance doesn’t mean alone
• Not valuing the importance of networking and connections
• Building partnerships with other freelancers who can help

you get work is imperative

Let’s hear from Judy...

#4 Shiny Object Syndrome

• Distracted by all the tools
• Unsure of what’s best for them
• Playing business rather than doing business
• Distracted by all the options and too much information

#5 Not Doing Research

• Some industries earn more. Knowing which ones is super

important.

• It takes a bit of practice to combine skillsets to create what

we call a “powerhouse” combination

#6 Doing TOO Much Research

Getting caught up in reading, thinking, and planning and NOT taking any action.

There is a fine balance between research, planning, and TAKING ACTION to get your business up and running. And we can help with that.
