You’ve probably all heard the phrase, you shouldn’t work for free and exposure doesn’t pay the bills. Well I disagree.Working for free is actually one of the things that’s actually grown my business so fast and made me more money!Now I understand that exposure might not pay a bill right there and then but if it’s done right, it sure as shit helps pay bills later down the track.And I think this is where people often get it twisted…Working for free is not a long term solution to business growth, obvs! Because you need money. But it is a means to an end… either as a way to kickstart your biz if you’re brand new or pivoting into a new industry, or to grow your business strategically down the track.So this episode is going to cover all the benefits of working for free [so much so that you will be converted to this strategy by the end of it!]Plus some of the things i’ve done over the last few years for free and how they have had a positive impact on my business.If you’re looking to grow your audience, reputation or income then I highly recommend having a think about ways you can start to do this and give back a little bit more.Here’s some questions to ask yourself:Where are my dream clients struggling right now?What do they need support with?How can you help them?LINKSJoin Laura’s FREE weekly newsletter for all the juicy BTS goodness, VIP access to new programs and all the special offersDownload the FREE Life First Business BibleWork with LauraSales Secrets is a private podcast for female entrepreneurs ready to finally crack the code on selling with ease.
