Show Notes

In this episode of the WP Builds podcast Nathan Wrigley and David Waumsley talk about the feast / famine cycle of being a freelancer.

What do you when work dries up? Have jobs come your way that require more time and skill then you have? Of course, we don’t have the answers, but we we are experimenting with approaches.

Nathan has 10 years experience successfully balancing this without needing to hire. He has raised a family in the process.

David has minimized his spending to buy time to plan a business he hopes will run without him. He’s no dependents and a growing set of documents.

We mention

The E-Myth revisited – Michael Gerber
Built to Sell – John Warrillow
