#308: How To Give Yourself A Raise This Year (In 4 Steps)


Listen Later

For two grueling years in my early 20s, I poured my heart into a day job at Gamestop, never missing a day and always showing up on time.

Despite the love from regulars and kudos from my boss, my financial reward after all that hustle? A laughable jump from $5.15/hr to $5.50/hr. That's right, a whole $0.35/hr raise after two years.

Sound painfully familiar? Unfortunately, many of us have been undervalued at some point, struggling to secure that well-deserved raise.

But here's the flip side... when you're self-employed, you call the shots on your "salary".

No more waiting years for a significant raise - freelancers can see substantial income increases in a matter of weeks or months if you play your cards right.

Ready to find out how? Check out this week's episode of the 6 Figure Creative Podcast for a super-tactical and engaging session where we explore four actionable steps to give yourself a raise this year.

In this episode you’ll discover:
  • How to "get a raise" as a freelancer
  • The limits on our businesses as freelancers
  • Overcoming the constraints on your business
  • Keeping your clients happy - and tracking repeat clients
  • Eliminating a constraint to give yourself a pay bump
  • Why whales are a risk to your business
  • Improving your skills, beliefs, and character traits
  • Finding the answers to your roadblocks
