Episode 1928: Leah Manderson shares how she transformed her writing skills into a thriving freelance business to help fund her dream wedding. By targeting women-owned businesses with generous, value-first pitches, she built a client base, earned over $5,000, and discovered a side hustle that outlasted the wedding itself. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.budgetsaresexy.com/side-hustle-series-started-freelance-writing-business/ Quotes to ponder: "It’s a rollercoaster of emotions in the beginning (it took me 2 months to get my first client!), but so worth the effort when you finally get a ‘yes!’" “To sell my services, I sent email pitches to women-owned businesses in my area, telling them how I could help them improve their sales.” “In exchange for free projects, request either a testimonial or referral to further your business in a non-monetary way.” Learn more about your ad choices.
