Freelance to Freedom: Freelancing Strategies to Get More Clients and Build Financial Freedom
The Power of Code, Community & Confidence: Julia Taylor on Her Career and Mission to Empower Women Through Coding
13 Sep 2022
As a (former) military wife, self-taught web developer, and lover of location independence, Julia Taylor has taught over 3,000 women to say "YES" to any WordPress request, “YES” to themselves, and “YES” to creating life on their own terms. Mastering WordPress has not only been the single biggest driver for Julia's career progression, but it has also enabled her to follow her dreams of a TRULY location-independent lifestyle. From a military wife moving every two years with zero career progression, she has since been able to work from home, work from her RV (yep, she was a full-time RVer for 1.5 years), and now works from anywhere! Empowering women and seeing others succeed is the biggest motivator for Julia. And so, she created a program to teach others the skills that allowed her to take back control of her life and start living on her own terms.06:47 – On teaching women to code with a focus on WordPress09:21 – On the importance of mindset11:38 – The qualities of Julia’s most successful students13:13 – Giving women the opportunity to try out coding19:18 – On Julia’s pricing27:06 – Julia’s team34:48 – The impact of COVID on Julia’s business39:32 – On reaching $1 million 43:28 – Julia’s marketing50:40 – On running a female-owned tech business52:38 – Invest in team and advertising56:13 – The two people you should try to impressGeekPackhttps://geekpack.com/WP Rockstarhttps://go.geekpack.com/wprockstarJulia the Geek Facebook Grouphttps://www.facebook.com/GeekPackHQ/Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/geekpack/TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@juliathegeekYouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/c/GeekPackI'd love to help you grow your freelance business!
