Passion To Profits - Make Money From What You Create
You’re a creative expert. You might already be earning an income as a writer, author, videographer, photographer, filmmaker, musician, or artist. And you're looking to transition from being a freelancer for hire to monetizing your creative expertise.
Perhaps you’ve been thinking about starting a podcast, launching a product, building a course, writing a book, forming a community, starting a YouTube channel, or hosting a live event. You want to leverage your experience, skills, and knowledge to build new income streams for yourself so you can get out of the “rat race” - stop trading your time for money.
I get you. I'm married to a creative person. We've built several income streams together. And I work with creatives to package, price, and promote their expertise all the time.
On this podcast, I'll discuss and bring on guests to discuss proven frameworks (like marketing funnels, value ladders, marketing flywheels, and building communities from podcasts).
And, we're going to make it fun. In between all the serious talk, we're going to throw in some humor, dad jokes, to make this process playful and entertaining.
I'll coach creatives, in real-time on the show, how to transition from freelancer to expert. We'll discover together what income streams are right for you, so you can create new income streams and get paid whether you're working or not.

513 - Am I a "Try Hard"?
Over the years, I've heard my boys call certain kids in school or on the sports fields "Try Hards". I guess it's a term used for people that seem to be trying extra hard to win or succeed. In some ways, I kind of feel sorry for those kids...because it's actually a really good thing to want to do well and succeed. But, on the other hand, I get their point. Try Hards are over-the-top where it becomes annoying.
As I was preparing this message, I wondered if I have been a closet "Try Hard" all my life. Haha. Anyway, here's my message for today.
I am trying too hard to do too many things for too many people too much of the time. And, instead what I've been learning is that I actually experience more success when I do this... (you'll have to listen to the episode to find out what that is). You're probably saying to yourself...typical TRY HARD thing to do. Haha.
As always, I hope this message inspires and awakens something new in you!
