Ditching Hourly Fireside Chat with Ed Gandia and Jonathan Stark

This week I am joined by Ed Gandia. Ed is the co-author of The Wealthy Freelancer, the host of the High-Income Business Writing podcast, and a coach to ambitious writers and copywriters who want to earn more in less time doing work they love for better clients.As you can probably tell from this bio, Ed and I are very much kindred spirits, so this episode is a bit different than most. Instead of me interviewing Ed like a normal guest appearance, we decided to just have a chat where we compared notes on what were see working in our respective spaces. There was a lot of overlap but also some interesting differences. Ed will also be posting our recording on his podcast, so if you're subscribed to both, you don't need to listen twice :)Ed's Links: https://b2blauncher.com/ ----Do you know you need to niche down, but keep hesitating because you're afraid of picking the wrong niche, cutting off good opportunities, or boxing yourself in?You DON'T need more convincing that vague positioning is a problem.You DO need a way to make positioning feel less risky so you can finally choose a direction, test it in the market, and adjust without blowing up your business.On Tuesday, September 8th, 2026, at noon Eastern Time, I'm running a live workshop called Positioning For Soloists Having A Hard Time Niching Down.That's what we'll tackle in this workshop.It's the second session of my Fall 2026 Soloist Growth Workshop series for expertise-based business owners just like you.Live attendance is limited to 20, so don't wait.Learn more at: https://jonathanstark.com/sgsEnroll in Positioning For Soloists now »Hope to see you live in Zoom on Tuesday.
