Today we have one of our very own Digital Marketer’s Workgroup members here on the podcast!
I love to highlight other freelancers, how they're doing business, what kind of services they're offering, what lessons they've learned, and in Heidi's case, sharing how she has scaled to six figures as an agency. She's one of our most recent workgroup members to share a big win.
Heidi Schmidt is a Social Media Consultant who works with (mostly) small-mid sized woman owned service providers and coaches offering social media strategies and done-for-you social media management. Though she has over 15 years of experience in marketing, she's passionate about content and social media strategies that drive results. She started freelancing in 2020 at the start of the pandemic and now owns an agency with a team of 5 content creators/VAs who help her create stellar content.
Listen in to learn more about
- the need for community support and networking in the freelance industry
- benefits of joining The Digital Marketer's Workgroup
- the low startup cost of freelancing
- the importance of self-discipline and time management
- finding a niche and building client relationships
Tune in as Heidi shares her freelancer journey and how she knew when to make the jump from virtual assistant to an agency owner.
