In our very first episode, we have no less than the award-winning blogger, personal finance expert and serial entrepreneur, Fitz Villafuerte of readytoberich.com.
This is part 1 of a 2 part series. We had quite a long conversation with Fitz full of stories, tips and tactics, which you will surely love. That’s why we had to cut the show into two.
In this episode, you will learn:
- How Fitz started as a freelancer and how he marketed himself as a freelancer to get more clients.
- The keys to success in freelancing. Fitz mentioned about 6 keys to success.
- How Fitz used freelancing as a stepping stone to becoming a serial entrepreneur.
- How Fitz started new businesses every year and how he juggles his online and offline businesses.
