Let's start this week with a little brain-buster...

If freelancing is all about having freedom, why does it sometimes feel...

like you're a lone rooster in the middle of the ocean with a teenager who's trying to save her people? 🌊

Oh, you don't know either?

Sure, freelancing means you can choose how and when you work, what kind of work you do, your clients, and your rate.

But by the time you finally shut your laptop and collapse on the couch, your mind starts racing.

You think of all those freelancers on LinkedIn who seem to be effortlessly achieving their dreams.

Before you know it, you're spiraling.

🤔 🤔 🤔

The good news is—feeling like you're not doing "enough" is completely normal.

The bad news? It's just not that simple.

And unfortunately, there's a chance you might never feel another way.

But you can do something about it.

Let's acknowledge the obvious: There are only so many hours in a day.

And marketing yourself feels like just one more thing to add to your already overflowing plate.

There's no magic formula, but if you consistently put yourself out there and track your efforts, are you getting results?

If your answer is yes...you're probably doing just fine.

If you're doing all that and then some with little or no results...something needs to change.

Of course, there are SO many ways to land clients...and what works for me may not work for you.

But have you tried sending cold emails?

I landed my very first real freelancing client by sending a cold DM on Instagram, so I know that cold outreach works!

It's also super intimidating.

And no one enjoys putting effort into something that may or may not work, right?

What if I told you I had something that could help?

​Try this cold email template from Moxie.

It's been known to get a response in less than 15 minutes. 😮

And it comes with a quick video tutorial—for free.

Remember, there's no one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to marketing your freelance business.

Finding a sustainable approach that works for you is the most important thing, and small steps can be the most important.
