LET’S TALK ABOUT ‘CLIENT WORK’
Forget What You Think You Know About It and Let Me Show You Why It Can Become Your Best Friend
Creating and running an educational creator business can be challenging.
What would you give to be free of the struggle to break even or make a sustainable living?
Life is too short to struggle
Yet, so many side-hustle-oriented creators struggle month in and month out to create enough content to make the money they deserve.
Don’t you deserve an easier and more enjoyable path to a rewarding creative business that rewards you with a more significant and sustainable income?
It’s called ‘The Tiny Tribes🪶Business Model’
Imagine your business easily …
converting followers into subscribers
converting subscribers into paying customers and
converting paying customers into long-term clients
If your Substack is a Tiny Tribe with less than 1,000 subscribers, you can generate immediate and significant cash flow by working with clients.
Ignore Client Work at Your Own Risk
Too many Substack publishers avoid client work. When asked about this, there are usually several reasons cited:
“Client work means trading time for money.”
That’s true, but depending on paid subscribers is like believing in Santa Claus, especially when you’re just starting to make a name for yourself. It won’t get you very far.
“I’d rather write books and articles.”
That’s fine, but don’t expect immediate or significant revenues for months and possibly years. Reaching a substantial monthly income with pricing that includes $10/month per paid subscriber or $9.99 per copy of your book will take a very long time.
“I don’t want to work with clients.”
This is often a statement that covers a deeper issue.
Usually, it’s fear, which manifests in a well-hidden lack of confidence in possessing enough experience, knowledge, and expertise to offer others.
I Get It
When I first started, I was terrified to work with clients.
So, I didn’t. And I regretted it.
While my colleagues generated thousands monthly, I barely scraped $200 together.
Why Client Work Is a Beginner’s Best Friend
Regardless of the topic or discipline within which your educational creator business exists, you can charge whatever you wish when you offer your audience one or two DONE-FOR-YOU (DFY) services that solve a problem they’ve struggled with.
A DFY service such as a Substack Newsletter Audit or a Hero Post, About Page, and Welcome Email copywriting package can exponentially boost your immediate and recurring cash flow and income.
“Book just one client for your $297 service, and you’ve likely earned in one project what that subscriber would’ve paid you over a year as a paid monthly subscriber.”
If you’re curious how to get started with Done-For-You and Done-With-You services, and how to add them to your Substack…
We’ve got the complete package to help you level up to a five-figure monthly revenue business
