The Jim Galiano Show: Help for Freelancers & Solopreneurs

In the early years when I first started my business, I wanted to run before I walked. I guess you can imagine how that turned out? Even so, when I only did what I was comfortable doing, progress was almost non-existent. So, I learned how to reach for things and develop skills that (at the time) were just outside my comfort zone.

Today, we’re surrounded by expert advice at every turn. Still, if you want to get the kind of results that are beyond what the average person achieves online, you must stretch your skills and abilities in ways you may not feel 100% comfortable with yet.

That and more in today’s casual, off-the-cuff, podcast conversation.

In today’s podcast, I want to talk about building a “Freelance Authority Presence.”

I’m really excited about sharing this information with you. I believe it can transform the way you do business from the inside out.

That and more in today’s podcast.

For the first time in many years, the time spent on Google surpasses time spent on Facebook. It should be surprising. With several years of negative press and bad publicity growing around Facebook and social media in general, it’s not hard to understand why.

What does this mean? It means this is a great time to start refocusing your efforts on building up, marketing, and promoting the online properties you own and control.

More on this topic in today’s podcast.

As an online entrepreneur, you are in a position to build the kind of business that will impact your future in a powerful way.

Follow your vision, focus on one thing at a time, and be willing to keep on keeping on.

Be prepared to push through delays, setbacks, distractions, and mental unrest.

This is a distance race. If you refuse to give up, your time will come.

Is there really a “less stress approach” to building an online business? Can you make money without having to manage an increasing number of moving pieces? You can, but first, you must decide what you’re going to focus on and what you’re going to let go of.

If you want to manage multiple employees, projects and departments, it’s a totally different approach from what I’ll be talking about today. If you want to run a smaller, but profitable, one or two-person business, today’s podcast is just for you!

In today's podcast, I will be talking about how you can build an effective selling system for your online services business.

Yes, you love to create things. You have an eye for color, you write the code that makes things work, etc. I get it.

But, guess what? You have to sell everything!

Or, we can put it this way – EVERYTHING MUST BE SOLD.

From the first contact to the signing of a contract, without the right process in place, you’ll need three lifetimes to make the kind of money you’re probably looking for.

The truth is, most freelancers don’t have a system they can rely on to bring a steady stream of leads and prospects. The good news is, you don’t have to be a master marketer or sales person to make this happen. What you DO need is a system.

Are you ready for some change in your life?

That and more in this episode.

As an entrepreneur, you have the freedom to design the kind of business that will be a great fit for your life... AND make money. In today's podcast, I want to talk about how you can build systems that will help you do exactly that!

That and more in today's show. Make sure you take notes. I'm going to share a process that can be a gamechanger for you.

Break free from the “herd” mindset and build something that is uniquely YOU. Sure, learn your craft. Learn the basics of sales and marketing. Then, realize that the world doesn’t need just another designer, coder, coach, writer, editor, SEO’er, etc.

What the world really needs is YOU. The person behind the craft has the power to change lives. So break free, get out there where things are happening – and make a difference!

Should you start an online agency and take your entrepreneurial journey to the next level? How much money can you make after maximizing your billable hours? In today's podcast, we're going to look at these and other questions around this topic.

If you're just getting started, you've come to the right place!

Although I've been in business for a long time, every time I adjust my direction or focus, it's still a fight. There's a saying that people don't rise to the level of their expectations... but fall to the level of their training.

In today's podcast, I want to talk about leveling up your game... and talking yourself into fighting through the resistance you'll face as you do.
