You’ve been working hard. You are getting (some) clients.
And…you still don’t feel confident or professional when it comes to running your freelance business. 

It can be tough to be a freelancer in the creative services industries.

You are essentially trying to sell something invisible – a promise to create deliverables that don’t currently exist.  And you’ve never really been trained on how to do that.

  • How do you figure out who your target market or ideal client is?
  • How do you manage your time better so you don’t feel so stressed and burnt out?
  • What do you say in your marketing?
  • How can you make more money?
  • Are you charging enough? Too much?

Where do you even start with choosing which of the many platforms, tools, apps, etc you are going to use to try to get your compelling marketing messages out there, in front of the right clients, when they are ready to buy?

It is no wonder you are feeling overwhelmed and exhausted.

Good news! You don’t have to stay stuck, frustrated, and struggling any more.

 

The Freelancer BUSINESS MASTERY Program gives you the training, resources, and support you need to:

Aura McKay, Founder and Lead Instructor of Business of Creativity

Hi! I’m Aura McKay.

I am a marketing instructor and business coach with more than 20 years of my own experience as an award winning photographer. It breaks my heart how little real training there is around business, marketing, and mindset for freelance creatives

I also see how much of the training that is available seems to be missing the part that personalizes the training, supports people to apply it to their own business, and deals with the loneliness and imposter syndrome.

In my experience of training and coaching hundreds of freelance creatives, choosing a program and coach to work with is not something that should be done on impulse.

Learning  works best when there is alignment.

My commitment is to only work with clients who are a match. Where we are aligned in our communication styles and values. And when what you need is exactly what I can provide.

So fill out your Application and book your interview today, let’s talk about your freelance creative business and your goals.
