In today’s episode, we learned that working with agencies is a great way to fill your client pipeline regularly.

But how does the money work if an agency will “white label” your services? Who gets what? How much? And when?

These are the types of questions Nathan asks himself as he grows his business.

He’s got a few partnerships in the works, but he’s unsure how to set up the money side.

Naturally, we have a few ideas for him to try. Plus, we talk about how much to charge in your particular market and more.

It’s all in this episode of ‘Freelance to Founder.’ Let’s go.
