Welcome to the Smarter Freelancing podcast!In this first episode, I discuss why I've decided to take International Freelancers Academy in a new direction. I explain our new purpose and how I think we can serve you best this year and beyond. The notes that follow are a very basic, unedited summary of this podcast. There's a lot more detail in the audio version.
Ilise Benun talks with Ed Gandia of the International Freelancers Academy on pricing for creative professionals. Ed shares his strategy for demonstrating value to support your prices and tells exactly how he raised his rates to an existing client, always a tricky thing to do.
According to the comprehensive , the biggest challenge facing freelancers is landing clients: 37% named that as their top challenge. Other surveys we've conducted at International Freelancers Academy show similar results. One of them revealed that attracting more, better, and higher-paying clients was by far the top challenge for 53% of freelancers.

In this episode I will: Explain why the common view and attitudes about attracting and landing quality clients are completely warped. Discuss why a new view or paradigm about client attraction is desperately needed. Show you what this new view and model are all about and why you need to adopt the mindset that comes with it.
