#201 Common Mistakes Service Providers Make on Packages
Here’s what I see happen with freelance service providers: We jump in, we book our first clients, and then we never look back and never take the time to up-level our positioning and assets so we can attract bigger clients who value us and who pay more. This becomes a problem when you’re ready for project rates because you're not positioned as an expert if you're still looking like a generalist. We’re trying to be premium service providers and we're trying to get there because then we get to charge more, we get to work with the best clients, and we get to work on the services we love. Listen in to learn more about 6 common mistakes service providers make with packages confidently pricing your services to maximize your earning potential attracting high-paying clients and positioning yourself as an in-demand expert in your field connecting and networking with like-minded service providers in a supportive community Tune in because I’ll help you avoid these common mistakes and set yourself up for success so you don’t max out your capacity.

#196 Bookkeeping for Virtual Assistant Businesses with Serena Shoup
All of us are freelancers for a reason: we want freedom. We also envisioned financial freedom. We're diving deeper into the bookkeeping, the accounting, and the expenses we can write off so that we are not paying the IRS as much at the end of the year (and keeping more for ourselves). We're getting credit for running our business because we're already paying a self-employment tax. We might as well take off these additional write-offs so we're not penalized for making more money. But we're doing this so we face our numbers, learn our numbers, and know where we're going. My guest Serena Shoup is a corporate CPA turned bookkeeping business CEO. She’s a mentor for other bookkeepers & accountants and a mom of 3. She built her business as a side hustle to motherhood when she left corporate to have her second daughter. She’s passionate about helping business owners become CEOs and take control of their money through her company Of Course Bookkeeping and she mentors other bookkeepers and accountants to do the same through her company The Ambitious Bookkeeper®️. Listen in to learn more about taking control of your freelance finances to create greater stability essential steps to safeguard your personal assets and streamline your business operations important guidelines and good money habits key deductions that could potentially save you thousands in taxes each year strategies for standing out in your industry and commanding higher rates for your specialized skills Serena is amazing. She actually does bookkeeping for my business. You're going to learn a lot, and if anything, your takeaway is to be empowered to put your business first and treat it as a real business and not just a hobby.

#192 Visibility for Introverted Service Providers & Virtual Assistants with Mai-Kee Tsang
How can we protect our energy and show up in a way that moves the needle in our business and helps us get clients so we can make a bigger difference in the world? Today my guest is Mai-Kee Tsang who is talking about podcast guesting and getting your business out there. She has really made a name for herself. I met her years ago and at a couple of conferences. Mai-kee helps integrity-led online entrepreneurs go from hidden gems to go-to-experts through the power of Sustainable Visibility® & Podcast Guesting Strategy. This is so they can continue to make a deeper difference to those they serve - all without compromising their own capacity, values or bottom line in the process. Listen in to learn more about the difference between "exposure" vs "visibility" (and why they should NOT be used interchangeably) what Sustainable Visibility really means overcoming the challenges and barriers in podcast guesting to expand your reach thinking of visibility as a spectrum and splitting it into 3 categories good news for those of us who don't like being in the center spotlight If you’re more of an introvert, definitely tune in to hear us talk about reeling it back in and doing the visibility that's actually sustainable and realistic.
