Erin Flynn is not your normal freelance web designer.
While everyone else is preaching “hustle, grind, kill yourself until you win” Erin is encouraging everyone to slow down and build a business that supports your life RATHER than the other way around.
Erin only works two to four hours a day as a freelance web designer. Okay, five hours on a busy day.
But, despite the fact that she doesn’t even come close to the traditional 40 hours per week of an average employee she is still making over six figures as a freelance web designer.
How does she do it?
Well, a few things. She’s figured out exactly the right type of client she works best with. She charges what she’s worth. BUT, more than anything, she just made a decision that she isn’t going to be a slave to her work.
Most people think that if you want to make it big as a freelance web designer you have to be willing to sacrifice all of your free time and really any kind of life you hoped to have.
But, Erin is proving to us that you can build a successful freelance web design business and still have plenty of time for things like your family and other hobbies.
Listen to this week’s episode to learn more about how she did it.
