Innovating with AI

When you took the leap to become a consultant or freelancer, you accomplished one of life's biggest dreams – working for yourself, from anywhere, on your own schedule and your own terms.

You remember the thrill of saying goodbye to your demoralizing day job, once and for all. The joy of working long, late hours to build a business that was truly yours. The exhilaration of scoring that first client and cashing that first check. You were finally free.

And then, you realized it was up to you – and only you – to keep it all going.

When you had a big month, work was fun and life was easy. When you had a downturn, it felt personal. You asked yourself, "Am I really cut out for this?" When your bank account balance dwindled, you started to wonder: "Would I be better off with a real job?"

If you looked to other freelancers or consultants for help, chances are, they just smiled knowingly. "Welcome to my world," they'd sigh. "It's a never-ending cycle of feast and famine."

I used to think the same thing. Not anymore.

After more than a decade of experience and experimentation, I’ve learned that the popular wisdom is wrong. The feast-and-famine cycle is not a necessary evil, and it's not an inevitable trade-off for the benefits of being your own boss. It is a symptom of specific problems in your business that you can permanently solve.

You're already great at what you do. You deliver extraordinary creative and technical services, and your clients walk away happy. You just need a trusted ally to help you with the job behind the job – the one where you build a predictable, sustainable, serious business based on your existing talents and skills.

Without that business foundation, it’s all too easy to stay on the same old grind for years, saying things like...

“I’m on the rollercoaster of feast and famine. The big months are great, but I’m always anxious because I don’t know what’s coming next.”

“I could work 24/7 and still never get everything done. There’s no boundary between work and life.”

“I’m always wearing multiple hats … when I have a rush of projects, I’m too slammed to write proposals and sell new business.”

“Clients only care about cost. How can I earn more when they already think I’m expensive?”

These are the questions of skilled creators who haven't yet built a sustainable business that turns creativity into a career. If this sounds like you, you're not alone.

I've been there, and I've spent the past 14 years experimenting, studying, succeeding, failing, and devoting my life to building a business that actually lives up to my dreams. Along the way, I've helped my fellow freelancers and consultants apply the same lessons to their lives – dramatically increasing their incomes and making life and work a hell of a lot more fun.

The result? A clear, straightforward system for building consistent, predictable profit – without spending your whole life doing sales, without getting bogged down in the "busy-ness" of business, and while delivering amazing work to clients. And most importantly, while having fun doing your job.

The path isn't easy – you'll have to pass by lots of discouraged freelancers and starving artists along the way. But if you're ready to put in the work and invest in yourself, I'm ready to show you the inner workings of a thriving freelance career.

It's time to leave the cycle of feast and famine behind – and replace it with continuous growth. As you adopt the Automatic Freelancer system, you'll shift from hoping to sign your next project to stay afloat, to being assured of ongoing retainer and repeat-client income.
