#249 The Authority Framework: How Freelance Marketing Assistants Can Build Visibility with Rob Marsh


Listen Later

Freelancer Visibility Series #1

Are you tired of being the industry’s best-kept secret? You’ve got talent, you’ve got skills, but you’re stuck in VA-land doing low-paying admin work. Meanwhile others with half your ability are getting booked out (and charging way more). You don't need another tool or tactic, you need visibility and authority.

This week, I sat down with my friend and fellow visibility nerd Rob Marsh, a seasoned direct response copywriter, marketing strategist, and co-founder of The Copywriter Club, to break down his Authority Framework. Rob’s worked with big names like American Express and Pluralsight, but his real magic is helping freelancers step into their authority and start charging what they’re worth. In this episode, he shows you how to build credibility, attract high-value clients, and position yourself as an expert without needing a huge platform.

Listen to learn more about:

  • How to use Rob’s Authority Framework to get visible without being everywhere at once
  • Why being the “best kept secret” doesn’t get you paid and what to do instead
  • How to build trust and expertise (even if you’re newer or still figuring it out)
  • The secret to borrowing authority when you don’t have a big audience (yet!)
  • Why waiting to “feel ready” is keeping you broke

If you’re feeling invisible, overwhelmed by marketing noise, or stuck in “I’m not ready yet” mode, this episode is your wake-up call. Rob’s practical advice and my real-talk stories will help you get unstuck, show up confidently as the expert you are, and get visible AF without burning out.
