Are you a freelancer who wants to...
Even if you lack the confidence, expertise or formal education to really step into a leadership role with your clients?
HAVE YOU BEEN DREAMING OF SCALING YOUR BUSINESS SO THAT YOU CAN…
- Reach (and hopefully even exceed!) the 6-figure mark?
- Transform into the expert on marketing you have always dreamed of being?
- Bring your clients a higher level of value?
...oh yeah, and work less than 20 hours a week?
...it sounds too good to be true, I know...
You likely have a successful freelance business already, you’re making good money, maybe were even able to leave your 9 to 5 and are spending more time with your babies. You find yourself hitting an income ceiling, and unable to command the rate needed to break through. You feel ungrateful even saying it, but you want more! And that is OKAY! No guilt. No shame here!
YOU HAVE AMBITION AND GOALS.
Maybe even starting a freelance business is what uncovered this ambition. It might even feel a little bit weird. You want to be more than just the social media manager who is knee-deep in Canva and Buffer, or the Pinterest manager spending far too much time in Tailwind. Maybe you are the copywriter who is being sent blog posts to write up, but you have content ideas of your own that would actually convert, or you are the general VA who is ready to specialize and go all-in on marketing!

You have friends who have pivoted into Online Business Manager’s BUT the process-driven environment does not light you up because you crave creative thinking.

It seems like everyone else has found their next step, their path to level-up, except you.
Three years ago I started freelancing while simultaneously working in my corporate job. I had been working as a Director of Marketing in corporate America, partnering with my clients to help build and execute strategic marketing plans that aligned with each client’s business goals. I was desperately trying to replace my corporate income. I kept feeling like I had zero skills to offer!
I started off by offering a lot of email marketing and social media marketing services. I was serving a large range of clients, and was constantly getting asked questions (because of my strong marketing background) on my marketing recommendations. I loved giving my clients as much value as I could, but was selling myself short by just giving away all my marketing help.
At this same time in my business, I was eager for more! I loved giving my clients the value they desired, I wanted to be seen as an authority! And I also wanted to double, triple, even quadruple my income! I wanted more.
Two years ago I landed Kim. She really let me take the reins when it came to her business's marketing. She was a one-man show, and wanted to grow, she knew she needed to implement marketing to grow, but didn’t have the time or desire to navigate it alone. I knew exactly how to take control and lead the marketing forefront to help her to meet her business goals.
Finally, it was like it all clicked!
This is the kind of work I wanted to be doing. Work where I was in charge, I was the one leading the marketing side of her business. We had proactive marketing plans in place, which meant less reactive work. Less fires to put out. I knew this is what I was meant to be doing!
Upon this realization, I completely turned a corner in my business. I started creating very customized proposals, offering one thing, and one thing only. Director of Marketing services. I started working in a very specific format with my clients.

I pulled from my corporate marketing agency background to align a process that works in the online business and freelance space. I went from spinning my wheels making just enough money to…
