What I got out of this interview about Starting a Freelance Business with Laura Pennington:

1. Freelancers Earn Good Money

Not only do freelancers earn 6-figures… you can make it a recurring billing business by choosing the right clients.

2. Spy on Your Competitors

If you’re struggling to pick up new clients because your competitors have been in the game longer, simply check out what they are doing, take notes, and make your offering better.
