Freelance to Founder

Attracting the Best Projects

Oct 29, 2020

You'll be happier and wealthier if you can learn how to attract the right kinds of freelance jobs in your career.

On today’s episode, I’m joined by a special guest coach, my friend Matt Olpinski, as we offer some coaching to Wyatt Hill

Wyatt’s got a really unique situation: his boss allows him to make connections with customers at his day job and then pitch them his side-hustle services.

While this setup is incredible, it also has Wyatt a bit worried: as he gets more successful, if he chooses to quit his day job, his client pipeline could dry up.

So we spend the bulk of this episode showing Wyatt a few ways to attract the right kinds of projects on his own—without help from his boss.

We talk about lots of tactics from SEO, to better contact forms, to online portfolios and Linkedin.

With our advice and lots of hard work, Wyatt wants to double his side-hustle revenue next year and we think he can do it.
