#196: Wrap Up the Year on a High Note

  • Summary

  • I’m excited about Bluesky! Are you on the platform too? Let’s create a Deliberate Freelancer starter pack — more on that in this episode — but follow me at @MelEdits.

    On today’s show, I share five questions to help you wrap up your year to create a “fresh start” in January. I explain the difference between these five questions and larger questions to ask yourself later in a solo business retreat to set up your year for success.

    The five questions are:

    1. What do I need to do now to line up work in January?
    2. What do I need to do to wrap up the year?
    3. Do I need to raise rates or fire anyone?
    4. Where do I need to improve my marketing and networking?
    5. How much money did I make this year?
