Freelancer to CEO

Are you sick of playing small in your freelancing business? Are you ready hit your income goals consistently? I was able to walk away from my teaching career the day my son was born and was making as much income in my freelancing business as I was in my job. Are you ready for that type of financial freedom so you can work a business at home with your kids being present for all those moments that actually matter? I’m here to walk you through step-by-step how I personally grew my freelancing business to a consistent 4-figure a month profit. This is for you if you are looking for the secrets to take your service-based business next level.

The Freelancer to CEO podcast is hosted by mom & former elementary teacher turned business strategist and coach, Aubree Malick. Each week, I will be sharing business strategy, systems and tactical tips that you can take and implement into your business today so you can finally step into that CEO role you desire and have the financial freedom you crave. In addition to sharing my proven system that helped me launch and scale my own super successful freelancing business, I will interview others who are the best in their signature service so they can share their secrets on how to scale your business to new heights.

We’re redefining what it means to be the CEO! So put in your earbuds, turn up that volume and let’s dive in!

Preparing for the Summer as a Freelancer Jun 05, 2023

Show notes

Join me for today’s episode as we talk about: prepping for summer as a business owner. While it's important to enjoy the summer, there are still things you can do to make the most of this time. Here are a few summer Biz to-do’s…

Clean up your back end: Use this time to organize and streamline your business systems. Implement new systems if needed and ensure everything is running smoothly. Take a look at your onboarding process, client communication, and any unused programs or subscriptions that can be canceled or put on hold.
Reach out to previous clients: If you're feeling uncertain about finding new clients or experiencing a slow period, reach out to previous clients! Offer your services in a creative way, such as a limited-time project or a special incentive. You never know if they might need support or if they can refer you to someone else.
Evaluate and update your packages: Take a closer look at the packages you offer. Are there any services you no longer enjoy or that aren't in high demand? Consider removing or revamping them. This is also a good time to assess your pricing and make adjustments if necessary.

Key Roles for a Financially Healthy Business with Sarah Young May 22, 2023

Show notes

Putting more money in the hands of women and helping them succeed is such a big goal of mine, but an essential piece of any successful business is understanding all the numbers! One topic that isn’t my favorite, but I’m so lucky to be connected with Sarah to come teach us all we need to know!

Sarah Young is the host of the Profit + Prosper podcast and founder of Young + Co, a Virtual CFO agency that helps business owners find financial peace and generate freedom and wealth. After finding that working with small business owners was far more fulfilling than working for large companies, Sarah committed herself and her business to helping business owners be more wealthy AND well. When she’s not helping clients maximize their profit to create more confidence and stability in their businesses, you can likely find her hanging with her son and husband.

In this episode, you will learn:

What you should be looking at regularly in your finances
When is it a good time to hire a bookkeeper, CPA, and CFO?
How to figure how much you should be paying yourself
What kind of tax deductions you could be writing off
