Join Vari McKechnie for a Business Workshop for Creative Freelancers.
Together we will create your signature offer. That’s the way you most love to help and support your clients.
Already have a signature offer? Great! We can work to elevate this to the next level, or create a brand new way for folks to work with you.
I’ll teach you the framework, give you lots of potentials for you to work with, then support you as you actually create the offer during our time together.
By the end of the workshop you will be ready to begin inviting clients into your offer.
This workshop is online so you can join from anywhere.
It’s perfect for anyone who wants more freedom, more money and more peace as a freelancer.
Freelance life doesn’t have to be the endless feast or famine cycle.
You can work with great clients doing work you love and make great money doing it.
You can do this whilst having your evenings with your family, weekends with friends and take trips without your laptop.
When you have a signature offer that speaks directly to the heart of your perfect client, you get to spend more time on the creative work you love and less time on email, invoicing and endless rounds of edits.
I’m excited to teach you the framework I’ve used for over a decade as a freelance graphic designer. This is the framework I’ve taught my private coaching clients too.
Let’s get together, refine your offer and get you doing more of the work you love for awesome clients.
