Abbi Perets: From Cancer Mom to Consistent $10K Months


Listen Later

Abbi Perets is the founder of Successful Freelance Mom. She is a copywriter with over 20 years of experience. She has worked with some of the largest, most well-known brands and organizations across the globe, helping them hone their message, and increase their ROI through email marketing and writing sales page copy. In addition to working with industry leading brands, she is also passionate about teaching moms who want to earn from home learn how to start freelance writing. Born in Pennsylvania but primarily living in Israel, Abbi is not only an entrepreneur and freelance writer, but also an amazing mother to five children, including one with special needs.

 

Abbi joins me today to share her journey as a mother of a child with cancer to becoming an entrepreneur and consistently earning $10K a month. She shares the situations of their family before the cancer diagnosis of her child that led her to start freelance writing as well as a glance at how she established herself as a freelance writer. Abbi also discusses the details about the work she does today - her product pricing, the kinds of products she offers, and her current evergreen courses for the mothers who want to earn a real living from home.

 

“It was slow. It was absolutely a process, but it was a process that really let me find myself, find my self-worth, and start exploring things again.” - Abbi Perets
