You're in the Frankenstein stage;
a business that's a collection of parts borrowed from each client and project.
It's 100% normal, and you're not alone, but...
it inevitably brings you to a crossroads.
Those who keep trying to be everything to everyone...
End up becoming employees in their businesses, trapped by work that is nothing more than an exhausting cycle of trading time for money.
Those who put on their big-girl-pants and finally decide what THEY want...
Cut out the work they can't stand to wrestle back control of their business from the claws of scope creep and an inability to say "no."
Look, it's not easy, or you would have done it already...but the answer is simpler than you think:
Ruthlessly interrogate your business to uncover your BEST work.
From there, the path becomes incredibly clear.
"This has been the most valuable complimentary webinar I've taken this year. Thanks so much for sharing your time with us."
~ Helen, workshop participant
"I will definitely be more aware of 'becoming an employee' in my own business. Having that language is helpful. I've felt that happening, but I wasn't really sure what to call it."
~ Tina, workshop participant
"Sarah was a fantastic instructor. The entire workshop was engaging, fun, interactive, and educational. Highly recommended."
~ Autumn, workshop participantt
Here's exactly what you'll do in 90 minutes over Zoom:
1. Figure out if you've outgrown your business and, if so, what to do about it.
Pinpoint your stage in the Freelance Business Lifecycle so you can see a clear path forward instead of laying awake at night thinking, "Am I the only one struggling with this?"
2. Evaluate your work using the six key areas that separate a Frankenstein freelancer from a legitimate business.
Most of us weren't taught "business;" we're scrappy do-it-all folks who figured it out on our own. This evaluation will show you what's working and broken so you know exactly where to focus your limited time and capacity.
3. Get to the cold, hard truth about your clients, services, and offerings so you can start trimming the fat.
We'll uncover the criteria that matter for you (e.g., the 10K month, a specific dream client, a 10-hour work week) and then figure out which parts of your business you need to scale, sustain, and scrap to get what YOU need.
Here's what you'll walk away with:
1. A crystal-clear understanding of which stage your freelance business is in right now (so you know how to breakthrough to the next stage).
2. A snapshot of six crucial areas of your business highlighting where things are:
-
Green: Humming along—pat yourself on the back and put these on the back burner.
-
Yellow: You've let the cobwebs build up—needs a little TLC to get back on track.
-
Red: Blind spot—fix these ASAP, and everything will fall into place.
3. A brutally honest ranking of your clients and services, revealing what you need to:
-
Scale: These are the bright spots, the hidden gems, the things you wish made up 100% of your time. It's time to double down on them.
-
Sustain: This stuff works fine—don't fix what's not broken.
-
Scrap: Red light! This is the stuff that's got to go, but for whatever reason, you're still saying yes to. (We'll also address the sneaky mindsets that lead you to say yes.)
PLUS, as a special bonus, all attendees get my Profit Planner!
Does "profitability" feel like rocket science?
This comprehensive tool helps you calculate your projected income, subcontractor expenses, and profit margins, and even breaks down what you’re making hourly so you know that you're not giving away the farm.
You can wake up tomorrow and cringe when you open your inbox...
...or you can register now for Built to Scale and start saying NO to the stuff that sucks your time, energy, and sanity.
I’m Sarah.
I've helped freelancers from all over the world build better businesses.
I’ve been there... figuring everything out alone, learning what works and doesn’t work for my clients, and constantly refining my business model to give me what I need in life.
I'm a real-life multiple six-figure solopreneur who knows firsthand the blood, sweat, and tears it takes to make a business work.
I'm also a seasoned coach and business strategist who has helped business owners from all over the world scale on their own terms.
I'm not here to give you all the answers or sugarcoat the hard work it takes to make running a business worth it. (Anyone who tells you they have all the answers is lying.)
I'm here to provide you with a roadmap + supportive environment to connect the dots yourself because scaling looks different for everyone.
"This self-evaluation process was very valuable to understand not only what services are valuable to our customers in terms of impact, but also what services are valuable to me in terms of revenue and time spent."
~ Fredrik, workshop participant
"Feeling braver! Clarity is power."
~ Anna, workshop participant
“This session was a great lift! Perfect messaging to remind us about the ongoing struggle of keeping the boss mindset- the struggle is so real... Thank you for being so generous and supportive.”
