Marketing Consultant Nadine Campbell

Author: Steve Folland October 30, 2022 Duration: 45:50
Already established in her marketing career, Nadine went freelance in order to ‘stretch’ herself professionally. Freelancing for 10 years with big name clients, yet with NO WEBSITE?! Her natural networking style has kept her ‘booked and busy’. Nadine’s also decided to use her own success and knowledge to give back. Starting a community and investment fund for diverse entrepreneurs. She wanted to be stretched - and she’s aiming high!

Stepping away from the traditional career path to work for yourself is a journey filled with unique highs and lows. Being Freelance, hosted by Steve Folland, delves into that reality through candid conversations with those who are living it. Each episode is built around a freelancer's personal story, moving from their first tentative steps to the ongoing challenges and triumphs of running a solo business. You'll hear authentic discussions about finding clients, setting boundaries, managing finances, and coping with the isolation that can sometimes accompany the freedom. This isn't about theoretical business models; it's the practical, often messy, human experience of building a livelihood from your own skills. Steve guides these conversations with empathy, drawing out insights that are both reassuring and actionable. The podcast serves as a regular reminder that the questions and doubts you face are shared by others navigating the same waters. Tuning in provides a sense of connection and a wealth of hard-earned wisdom, whether you're just considering the leap or are a seasoned veteran looking to refine your craft. It’s a resource that acknowledges the tough days while celebrating the incredible rewards of designing your own working life.
