Anti-Hustle Culture
On today’s show, can you grow without embracing hustle culture?
That’s just part of what we talk about with return guest: Travis Boyco.
A few months ago, Travis was trying to decide if he could actually quit his job and take his business full-time.
Now, he’s back, freelancing full-time and hitting us with some of his biggest learnings from going full-time, plus questions he’s run into since.
It’s a fun episode today, and it’s all here on Freelance to Founder. Here we go.

These Social Posts Get the Best Clients
On today’s show, we talk with Mannat, a student calling from India, with questions about her freelance business.
Mannat is a typographer—she works with lettering and fonts.
But every time Mannat posts her work on social media, she gets packaging design clients and others who don’t match her target audience.
This leaves Mannat asking, “what exactly should I be posting on social media to attract my ideal client?"
We walk her through a few key social media strategies that’ll also help you build your online presence and attract the right clients on social media.
