#222 Self-Management Strategies for Freelance Marketing Service Providers

Unicorns Unite: The Freelance Digital Marketing Virtual Assistant Community

UDMA School Open House: You're invited to a LIVE Open House for the Unicorn Digital Marketing Assistant School on October 8th at 12 PM est. This is your opportunity to explore everything my job training program has to offer. Join me for a Q&A, get a detailed course walkthrough to explore the comprehensive materials and program structure, and hear from past students. Come find out if UDMA School is your right next step!

Ever feel like you're dropping the ball when it comes to managing your own business and client work? Transitioning from a structured 9-to-5 job to self-employment brings unique challenges—especially when it comes to self-management.

In this episode, I’m getting real about how hard it is to manage yourself when there's no one telling you what to do, and how this crucial skill impacts everything from your communication to your ability to meet deadlines. Without a clear HR department guiding your daily tasks, you're left to figure out how to prioritize, meet deadlines, and maintain both your business and your client relationships.

Listen in to learn more about

• Balancing Life and Business: How to navigate through personal crises and stressful seasons while staying on top of work.
• Client Expectations vs. Reality: Hear about my own challenges with a client and how guilt and lack of prioritization can set you back.
• Juggling Multiple Roles: Managing both your business and your clients' businesses—and why it can feel overwhelming at times.
• Insights from a recent Workgroup training with Dallas Travers on how to handle scope creep, micromanagement, and boundary-setting with clients.

Tune in to hear how self-management plays an important role in both your success and sanity as a business owner and how you can start to get a handle on it, even when life feels chaotic.
