Weekly debrief 26/9: pricing tiers and proposal tips
This week on It’s Fine, I’m a Freelancer, I’m kicking off a brand new segment: the Weekly Freelance Debrief. It's a short, behind-the-scenes breakdown of what I’ve been working on, the lessons I’ve learned, and the little highs and lows of freelance life, a bit like my Friday newsletter, but in podcast form.
In this first debrief (covering Sept 22–26), I talk about:
Starting a new project with an existing client and why first pieces always make me nervous
Writing proposals (and how I keep them super simple with three pricing tiers)
A dream discovery call with a brand in the creator economy
The frustration of clients delaying briefs—and how I handle it
Money audits, financial advisor chats, and keeping business expenses in check
Mentoring demand in the Freelance Magic community and a new done-for-you service I’m testing
I also share a reminder that you never know who’s watching your content, and how one LinkedIn connection turned into an exciting new client opportunity.
If you want a real, unfiltered look into my freelance week (and hopefully some tips you can use in your own business), tune in!
