Freelance to Founder

Getting More Established Clients


Listen Later

On today’s show: When you’re just getting started, taking on any clients just to pay the bills is almost a given. But there comes a time when you need higher-paying more established clients.

That’s the situation today’s guest, Brittany, finds herself in.

Brittany has been freelancing on the side for years and recently took her freelance business full-time.

But aside from a couple of anchor clients, she’s mostly doing smaller, one-off projects that are both unpredictable and low-paying.

So how do you find clients that are more established, with bigger budgets and longer-term needs? That’s something we dive into with Brittany on today’s episode. 

We’ll get into it right after this quick break.
