On today’s show, will you attract bigger and better clients if you treat yourself like an agency?
That’s part of what we discussed with our call-in guest, Kate, who’s living and working in London.
With Kate, we talk a lot about marketing, positioning, branding, and lots of other stuff she’ll need on her journey from a “4” on the freelance to founder scale to a “10”...

That’s just part of what we chat about with Molly.

That’s part of the hurdle Aurelie faces as she aims to grow her 3-year-old freelance business.

On today’s show: do you ever feel trapped by the decisions you make in your business?
Our guest Morgan loves to write. But, early on, she took on quite a few social media clients.
Then, those clients referred more clients. And suddenly, most of her client work is focused on social media marketing — not writing.
So what do you do when your former choices have boxed you into a future you don’t necessarily want?

In today's Q&A episode, Travis writes about a problem: a few years ago, he moved from Australia to the U.S. to grow his video business.
While things went well at first, work has really slowed down, and he's wondering if there's something about the U.S. market he's completely missing.
Clay and I have never lived "down under," but we have a few things to consider for anyone looking to break into the US market.
