In this episode of the Productivity Podcast, I talk to Ryan Waggoner who's a master freelancer and expert on how to earn more in the time that you have. One of my biggest takeaways from the episode is why and how to move away from charging hourly to using “value pricing” and charging based on the outcomes that clients are looking for.

And if you've ever considered freelancing or earning a side-income from some skill that you have, then be sure to give this episode a listen as it'll help you to avoid a lot of the mistakes that people often make when charging out their time.

I’m super excited to share today’s interview with Ryan Waggoner with you. Ryan has an amazing consulting business and is pushing more than a million a year in profit. Ryan is killing it with mobile consulting, where a lot of people in that space struggle to make $100,000 plus. Ryan is an all around sharp guy, but I’m specifically bringing him on because he is really good at cash flow management. He has a great perspective on splitting up personal and business finance, and I want to capture that story.

Ryan is a solo freelance developer consistently making over a quarter of a million dollars per year from consulting work, while having the freedom to pick and choose the clients that he works with. Using the lessons from his own consulting business, he teaches other freelancers and consultants how to build sustainable six-figure businesses of their own. In 2015, he launched LetsMakeApps, a lead generation service for freelance designers and developers.  Listeners to this podcast episode can receive a discount code for LetsMakeApps and other bonuses by going to https://letsmakeapps.io/pathways/ Unlike other consultants or developers, he's both an experienced product manager as well as an active developer so he can ensure a strategy that furthers a company's goals while being technically feasible at the same time.  Ryan has worked with amazing companies such as Nike, Fannie Mae, Bayer, VMWare and dozens of startups on their mobile strategy and execution across dozens of apps and millions of active users.  He is also the author of the guide titled, “My First Million Dollars from Freelance” with many more posts in the works.  On this episode, he shares his secrets to running a successful freelance business.   

Ryan Waggoner (Twitter) doesn’t run a big agency. Instead, he intentionally stays solo, but that doesn’t stop him from earning a salary that most agency owners would be envious of. For each of the past 4 years, Ryan has had annual profits of more than $250,000. Impressive, huh? Instead of focusing on even more tactics... The post Agency Advantage 19: Ryan Waggoner on earning $250,000+ a year as a freelancer appeared first on Hubstaff Blog.

The previous episode of Hack the Process marked the end of the first season. At this point, I thought it would be a good idea to take an episode to review what I’ve discussed with the different guests, and share a little more about what my motivation was to create this podcast and put it out into the world. I’ll also tell you a little bit about what I was expecting from this podcast, and compare it to what actually came out. (I’ll give you a hint: it was a delightful surprise.) First of all, I want to thank all my guests from the first season: Tracy DeLuca, Adam Siddiq, Pace Smith, Paula Jenkins, Malek Banoun, Vinay Patankar, Alex De Simone, Andrew Nance, Ron Lichty, Ankit Shah, Hampton Catlin, Tara Byrne, and Ryan Waggoner. I don’t know if you fully understood what you were getting yourselves into when we started, but I appreciate each of you being so candid and open with our interviews. Your generosity and honesty made the season what it was. One of the things I like to bring to my work no matter where I’m working or what type of project I take on is the notion that it’s valuable to reflect–on a regular basis–on what you’ve accomplished, and think about how you might want to move forward based on that. I’m taking episode of Hack the Process as my opportunity to reflect on what I’ve done so far, and what I hope I’ve been able to provide to listeners. If you’ve been following the show, this episode will be an opportunity to find out how each of the guests on Hack the Process was selected, and remind yourself about the insights, stories, and ideas they shared. If you’re a new listener, this will be a chance to find out a little bit about the people we met in the previous episodes so you can decide if you want to subscribe and go back into the first season archives to take a listen to anyone in particular. Either way, I hope you’ll enjoy hearing more about why I decided to do this, and what I’m learning along the way. If you feel motivated to share some of your own experiences with the show, please leave a comment on iTunes.

Freelancing can be tough, but after nine years consulting as a mobile developer, Ryan Waggoner has learned some ways to make it more approachable from the start, and more profitable as your business grows. Ryan still consults with clients directly on mobile projects while also running LetsMakeApps.io, a curated daily lead service that helps other freelancers find new opportunities in design and development for web and mobile. In this interview he shares with us the patterns he's built into his daily routine to make sure his top priorities are always addressed first, where to put the focus when planning a new project, and why he thinks charging by the hour is a disservice to both the client and the freelancer.
