Building your own business comes in so many forms, and today we get to hear about the incredible business of freelancing with my guest Alex, of Alex Mills Social, chatting about the breadth of unique challenges and learnings the world of social media and strategy consulting brings.

Because when you are your business, and responsible for keeping that pipeline building while doing the do – there’s a bit to balance.  

In this ep you’ll hear us chat about:

• The value of time as a freelancer, or any type of business owner, when it comes to subjective networking
• Identifying your transferrable skills
• Vanity metrics & “trying to win” at socials
• Getting ghosted when pitching yourself
• The importance of time spent on both promoting yourself and learning
• And a lot of excellent social media tips to boot.

If you’re looking for some business solidarity and inspiration, you’re in the right place.
