Freelance to Founder

On today’s show, which comes first: hiring to free up time to land big clients or landing big clients to pay for hiring. 

It’s a chicken and egg situation that our guest Zach has been stuck on.

We do our best to answer that question, plus a few others he has, including how to combine two completely different offerings into one killer monthly recurring offer.

It’s all in this episode of ‘Freelance to Founder’—here we go.

On today’s show, we talk with Mannat, a student calling from India, with questions about her freelance business.

Mannat is a typographer—she works with lettering and fonts.

But every time Mannat posts her work on social media, she gets packaging design clients and others who don’t match her target audience.

This leaves Mannat asking, “what exactly should I be posting on social media to attract my ideal client?"

We walk her through a few key social media strategies that’ll also help you build your online presence and attract the right clients on social media.

Have you ever thought: “if I can just get the attention of more people, I could close more clients and grow my business”

That’s where we find today’s guest, Jay. He’s a web developer and SEO expert in Kentucky, USA. And Jay’s only been freelancing for a few months. He’s off to a great start having already closed a half-dozen monthly recurring clients.

Jay’s biggest question is how to get more volume. Or more awareness. So, of course, as marketing geeks Clay and I jump in with some of our best advice. 

And we wrap up the episode with advice that, frankly, I’m still not sure was good.

You’ll want to listen all the way to the end for that one.

This episode's question came in via email.

Nico works as a designer for a company right now, and he wants to start freelancing on the side and build a business.

He said, “I was thinking of creating a portfolio, including the projects I've completed in my current company, but in a fictitious way (use different names, organizations, etc.) Also, state that this is a fictional project but that the process and outputs are the same. Do you think this will work to close deals?

If you were a company that would be reviewing my portfolio, would you think that I'm experienced or just someone trying to fool you?”

Note: we are not attorneys, and we will not even touch the question of if it’s something legal or not. We are not providing legal advice in any way. This type of advice should be provided by a certified professional, and we are not.

On today’s show, have you ever thought: if I could just find the right person to hire, I could scale up my business.

That’s how Virginia from Argentina feels about her unique content marketing company.

The challenge? Virginia’s company develops content around witchcraft and spiritualism—so she needs teammates who speak fluent English, write well, and understand her unique niche.

It’s a tall order, but Clay and I offered solid advice for hiring the best freelancers.

That’s part of what we get into with our call-in guest, Dave.

That’s where Rakesh finds himself. He gets most of his clients from freelancing platforms like Upwork.

On today’s show: Do lead magnets really work? Like, can you actually get new clients by giving away something for free first? Or are they a waste of your time?

I’m flying solo today on a coaching call with Garrett—who has questions about using AI to generate lead magnets, how to price his work when he has a unique offering and non-traditional clients, and more.

It’s all in today’s episode of ‘Freelance to Founder.’ Thanks for joining. Here we go!
