Here’s what you’ll teach in ‘Start Your Own Freelance Business’…
Introduction
You’ll start out with an overview of the course and what your students will learn, so that everyone is excited to jump in and get going.
Module 1 – Identify Your Niche and Target Audience
Your students may already have an idea of what they will do as a freelancer. But if they don’t have a specific skill in mind, now is the time to brainstorm ideas and make a decision.
In this first module, you’ll help your students get specific by determining their niche and target audience that will enable them to build a successful and sustainable freelance business.

- Lesson 2: Define Your Target Audience – In Lesson 2, you’ll demonstrate how your students can define and understand their target audience so they can appeal to their needs.
Module 2 – Get a Handle on Your Finances
Once they know their niche and target, it is time for your students to get a clear picture of expenses, income, and cash flow.
In Module 2, you’ll have your students manage their freelance finances so they can establish a profitable freelance rate and set targets to measure their success.
- Lesson 1: Estimate Expenses and Establish Your Rate – In Lesson 1, you’ll show your students how to estimate their expenses so they can set their overall rate and make sure they don’t undercharge.
- Lesson 2: Set Up Your Accounting System – In Lesson 2, you’ll demonstrate how your students can use systems to record accurate accounting information and keep on top of their finances.
- Lesson 3: Set Specific Measurable Targets – In Lesson 3, you’ll demonstrate how your students can set specfic targets so they can measure their success and make any necessary adjustments.
Module 3 –Set Up Operations and Administration
It is important to take care of the operations and administration of running a freelance business from the outset, so that when your students get their first clients, they can do the actual work.
In Module 3, you’ll teach how your students how to set up the administrative and operational aspects of their business so that when they launch, they can focus on landing clients and delivering exceptional service.
- Lesson 1: Make It Official – In Lesson 1, you’ll teach your students the benefits of registering and setting up a bank account for a freelance business so that they can make the right decision for their own business depending on their location. You’ll need to customize this to wherever your audience is based.
- Lesson 2: Take Care of Administration and Infrastructure – In Lesson 2, you’ll show how your students can take care of as many admin details as possible from the beginning, so they don’t get caught out by any missteps later on.

Module 4 – Develop Your Freelance Brand
As a freelancer, it is important to market yourself – in person and online. To do this successfully, your students need to create a strong brand.
In Module 4, you’ll walk your students through how to define and articulate a personal brand that attracts their target audience and conveys a professional, authentic, trustworthy image.
- Lesson 1: Draft Your Brand Blueprint – In Lesson 1, you’ll show your students how to create a simplified brand document that will serve as a blueprint for all their brand and marketing activities.

Running a freelance business is a bit different than starting a small business and selling a product. Freelancers need to take an active role in contacting potential clients, because they are selling themselves as the ‘product’.

Module 7 – Maintain Client Relationships
Once you’ve landed a client, you job as a freelancer is just starting. You not only have to complete the work, but you also have to interact and maintain a professional relationship with clients.
In Module 7, you’ll teach your students how they can cultivate client relationships while also setting boundaries and staying top of mind, so they get the most successful outcomes for themselves and their clients.
Module 8 – Review and Refine
In this final module, you’ll show your students how to review their financial targets, review their client relationships, and gather client feedback. You students can then apply what they have learned to continuously grow their thriving freelance business.
And to teach the program above, here’s exactly what you’ll get in ‘Start Your Freelance Business’:

Take a Sneak Peek Inside the Course
Watch as I open up the course folders and show you EXACTLY what content you’ll get and how it works…
What’s Your Investment for All This Incredible Content?
You can see that Mentor Crest programs pack in a lot of value.
That’s because as learning experts and marketing specialists, we develop top-notch material AND we want to help you use it to attract clients and customers, so that everyone’s business grows.
But don’t worry, the cost is going to be MUCH less than you think.
Much less than it should be, based on the value of this program…
Much less than courses that teach you how to create a program like this yourself…
(Plus, this is ready to launch in minutes, not months, and even includes lead generation material to attract students to the course.)
Much less than hiring a team to help you design your program and create content…
And MUCH, MUCH less than learning how to create a program like this by trial and error…
…where you can lose money AND get zero sales.
So let’s say, conservatively, that you can create this course yourself for $8,000.
Now, that’s not nearly enough money to hire someone to help you…that’s just accounting for your personal time.
(If you’re a highly paid consultant, however, that $8,000 estimate is going to be MUCH higher…)
So you’d still have to research the topic, narrow down the key points, outline a logical flow, figure out learning activities that people can do, write all the content, develop support resources (like worksheets and checklists), create the slideshow, design graphics, edit and proofread everything, make it look professional, create lead generation materials, write autoresponder emails, and more.
For example, here’s the approximate amount of time it takes us to create a course like this one…
But if you don’t have experience creating courses, it’s going to take HUNDREDS of hours to do that properly…
And probably additional hundreds or thousands of dollars just to learn how to build a quality course or a high-converting sales funnel…
And after all of that, you don’t know if anyone is going to buy…
Especially if you’ve never sold your own program before.
OR, you can easily and quickly create your own courses…
Using ready-to-go programs from a company with a long track record of success…
And expand your business…
Earn more money, work fewer hours, and become the authority in your market.
All for significantly less than trying to do the same thing on your own.
So, as part of this offer…
You won’t pay $8,000…
You won’t pay $3,000…
You won’t even pay $1,500…

Have any of these questions about the Freelance Business course? Take a look…
Is this course right for my audience?
If you already have freelancers in your audience or people who wish to become freelancers then this is a good opportunity for you to help them achieve their goals. However, this is also a great time to include freelancers as a new audience, and then upsell them some of your other courses and programs.
Why do people become freelancers?
The freedom to choose their clients and work on their own schedule is a huge reason people choose to become freelancers. The chance to focus only on the work they love is also yet another reason people choose freelance work.
Isn’t this just like consulting?
Consulting is different from freelancing in a few ways. For example, freelancers create a proposal for specific services and deliver the work precisely according to the plan. Consultants have more flexibility when it comes to delivering the work and adjust when there’s a hiccup. A consultant tends to be more skilled than a freelancer and they’re not necessarily providing services themselves. At times, they may be managing freelancers who do the actual work. It’s a natural progression for a freelancer to grow into a consulting business – which means more opportunities for you to sell your courses and coaching!
What if I’ve never freelanced? Can I still teach this course?
There are many elements to starting a freelance business that you will have experienced when you started your own business. For example, gaining new leads and onboarding clients is something you will have done for your own business. You’ve developed your own brand and probably have dabbled in doing things on your own website. So you know a lot more than you think!
Also, remember there are other Virtual Content Mentor courses that you can invest in, learn from, and then teach aspects of in this one on how to Start a Freelance Business. Plus, you can always bring in a special guest to talk about an aspect of freelancing with your audience. Your accountant might do a Zoom call for your soon-to-be-freelancers. You might have a tax expert come and talk about taxes for your location. There are many experts who would love to reach new audiences, and they’re happy to do a call with your community. All you have to do is ask.
You’ll find that you have the skills and the experience to help people freelance their way to freedom when you take a moment to reflect on your journey!
