Confessions of a Freelancer is today's leading guide on starting, growing, or scaling your freelance business. Even if you're working in a full-time job, you can create the life you want through a side hustle you enjoy. Many people don't realize that freelancing isn't an all-or-nothing game. In fact, it's the only true way to break free from the monotony of working a 9-to-5 job. What if you could go from dreading work to truly enjoying your work - doing what you love day in and day out, feeling more fulfilled? It would change your life. My name is Michael Fleischner and I made the transition from full-time corporate work to living my dream as a freelancer. All of this was made possible through adopting a freelance mindset, developing the confidence to go out on my own, and following proven strategies for successful freelancing. The best part is that anyone can start a side hustle and achieve similar results. Freelancing is a great way to earn extra income. It can also become the way you make a living. This guide shares my personal journey, transitioning from a desire to climb the corporate ladder to freelancing full-time. My journey wasn't unique except that I'm probably the last person you would ever suspect would make a living as a freelancer. I was raised to believe that you made money by working for a corporation and clawing your way to the top. Now, looking back, I know it was a lie. The fear of having your own business is 100% misguided. I was led to believe, by those who never ran their own business, that it was hard, difficult, and came with too many risks. None of it was true. And it all started with a little side project. My journey began with a little editing here, some writing there, and some consulting. It wasn't long before I started taking on more and more projects after work and on the weekends. I told myself if there ever came a day when I was making the same money freelancing that I was making in my full-time job, then I'd make the leap. That day came sooner than I expected. Within a few years of taking on a side hustle or two, I made the transition to living my dream. Making the leap has given me wealth, freedom, and most importantly a sense of satisfaction. What I learned along the way is shared in this ultimate guide to freelancing. The journey hasn't always been easy but it sure does pay dividends. Today I run my own digital marketing agency, leveraging dozens of staff and freelancers to deliver quality services to customers. And, most importantly, I couldn't be happier. I'm doing what I'm most passionate about and working with people whom I genuinely care for. In this guide, I reveal specific ways to set up your freelance business for success. How to position and price your services. You'll also learn how to find customers, automate processes, and accelerate your growth. Whether you want to generate an additional $500 per month freelancing, $1,000 per month, $10,000 per month, or more, these strategies are proven to get you there. Remember, freelancing isn't an all-or-nothing game. You can start with a small project and go from there. If you want to grow as an individual, financially, and explore your passion, you must begin with the first step. This guide will lead you through this amazing journey called freelancing. While you're on your journey, I encourage you to join me and other freelancers on the Freelance Training Academy community. Freelancing can be a solo journey but it doesn't have to be.
