Freelance to Founder

The Power of Productizing


Listen Later

Have you ever wanted to say goodbye to writing custom proposals or charging low rates by the hour? If so, today’s your lucky day.

Clay’s on leave today which leaves me to chat with our expert guest, Tyler Gillespie.

Tyler has grown and sold multiple productized businesses—including one he grew to over 125 freelance employees.

In this episode, he’ll unpack exactly what it means to productize your service, how you can get started, and why productizing can turn your freelance business into a massive revenue machine.
