Whether you call yourself a freelancer, small business owner or something uniquely you, it doesn’t matter. With the right advice, accountability and assistance, you can stop taking whatever comes along and go get the work you want.

The Marketing Mentor Podcast

Via the Marketing Mentor Podcast, Ilise Benun offers short, but meaty conversational interviews with creative professionals. The professionals interviewed are in the trenches doing what it takes to stop the feast or famine cycle – get better clients, command the fees they deserve – and sharing what they’ve learned.
Topics covered include taking control over your business, finding your niche, identifying the ideal clients who value your services and can pay what you’re worth, developing your own marketing style and cultivating relationships that will last.
