accelerate your freelance income
It's a sad fact that many freelancers enjoy their work but struggle to get enough clients and make the income they would like to. And yet, I can walk you step by step through a complete blueprint that will transform your freelance business in 6 weeks.
This is why I'm running the "Income Accelerator Programme for Freelancers", a 6 week group programme to speed up your journey to a better income.
Participants talk about the Programme
Watch this 3 minute video to hear what recent participants say about the Income Accelerator Programme.
The freelancer's challenges
There are 5 big challenges of being a freelancer or solo entrepreneur. Which of these are you familiar with?
- Struggling to get enough clients
- Not being able to charge the rates you would like
- Failing to stand out from your competitors
- Getting overwhelmed by all the options for websites, marketing, internet marketing, networking and so on
- Feeling isolated working on your own
I designed the Income Accelerator Programme to address all of these. Join me and 5 other freelancer participants for the 6 week programme starting on Monday 29 September 2008.
What would you like to do?
- Quickly increase your number of clients
- Increase your income without increasing your hours
- Launch a new income stream that really excites you?
- Finally get your own website sorted out?
- Take your first steps to escape the "tyranny of the billable hour" and start making passive income
Have you put up your website just to find that visitors bounce off it? Have you met potential clients you know you could really help but you just couldn't turn them on to hiring you?
The Income Accelerator Programme takes you step by step through the process of making your freelance business drop-dead attractive to the clients you want to work with - in only 6 weeks.
“Simple yet amazing! Gives you so much clarity and confidence."

This is not a course
I'm sure you've taken courses before and learned useful ideas - but then you have to go home and work out how to use them yourself. And who has the time to do that?
The Income Accelerator Programme is not a course. Each week I introduce a critical strategy for freelance success and go on to advise you then and there how to apply it to your particular business. Plus you'll get the ideas and contacts of 5 other smart freelancers.
I'll give you simple tasks to do between sessions that can be done in an hour or less. And you'll get feedback on the most important tasks in the following week's session.
Launch yourself
Throughout the programme you'll be working towards a launch of a new offering to your market. This might be a new service or a new promotion of something you're already offering.
We'll cover everything from how to choose what it should be, how to name it, how to describe it in the most compelling way, how to price it as profitably as possible and how to launch it into the world to create a new source of income as quickly as possible.
What will you go away with?
At the end of 6 weeks, you'll have a complete blueprint to win more work you enjoy from clients that you love to work with. And it's a strategy you can repeat over and over again every time you want to offer something new.
In fact if you implement what you learn as we go along, you will have launched your new product or service and you could very well have got your first new client by the end the programme.

Does your work feel like a struggle?
If your freelance work feels like a struggle, you're doing the wrong work. The Income Accelerator Programme includes an incredible personality profiling system called Wealth Dynamics that in 15 minutes will identify your path of least resistance.
As soon as you register for the programme, I'll send you a password to take the test online and get your personalised 30 page wealth profile report.
Once you know which one of 8 paths naturally suits your personality, you'll know where to focus your energy in your career to make the easiest, most enjoyable and fastest progress - for the rest of your career. (And you'll know what work to stop doing.)
Stay Motivated
On top of all this, you'll benefit from the support and contacts of the whole group. Freelancing can be a lonely business and it's difficult to stay motivated on your own. It's a very different experience when you have ongoing contact with other people who are invested in your goals and want to help you achieve them.
The Income Accelerator is your very own Mastermind Group for 6 weeks. On top of that, previous participants have continued to meet by themselves to support each other in their business success.
"Do It! Use the chance to test your idea in a safe and supportive environment."

Who am I?
I've been director of my own company for 9 years and I have freelanced to corporations like the BBC and Accenture at a 4-figure daily rate. I am a former Senior Managing Consultant at Deloittes and an ex Internet Consultant. I am a qualified coach and have 6 years' additional training in humanistic psychology and specialised training in working with groups.
My freelance creative work has included writing for the Guardian and the Reader's Digest and writing music for a BBC Radio 3 arts programme. I have recently been featured in the book "Spare Room Start Up". My passion is helping the self employed make a great living from the work they most enjoy doing.
Individual attention
The programme includes a private one hour consultation with me to accelerate your path to increased freelance income. Participants report that this is one of the most valuable parts of the programme as we go into depth on whatever is the most important sticking point for you in increasing your freelance income.
You also have half an hour of individual implementation time from me to trouble shoot your website, start you a blog, register for a newsletter service or outline a google adwords campaign.
There are only 6 places on the programme so that I can ensure everyone gets individual attention. If you would like to take one of the remaining places click the link below.
When and where
The programme starts on Monday 29th September 2008 and runs weekly for 6 sessions. The last session is on 10th November.
Each session runs from 5pm until 7:30pm.
The sessions are held in Kings Cross in Central London.
Cost
The cost of the programme is just £687 including
- 6 group meetings of two and a half hours,
- your one hour private consultation,
- your half hour of implementation time
- plus your own 30 page Wealth Profile report
How many new clients would you need to recoup the cost of the programme - just 1? maybe 2? (If it's more than this, then you really need the course!) The techniques you learn on the programme have the potential to bring you more clients more easily for the rest of your freelance career.
As soon as you pay the deposit, I'll send you the access code to find out your wealth profile. Within 15 minutes you'll have your own 30 page report to give you a greater understanding of what's been holding you back and how to follow a much more natural path for your work.
"If you want sustained income growth - then this is the workshop for you".

Karen Field, Income Accelerator Participant:
“The Income Accelerator programme has been perfect for me. I had set up my coaching business but I was still working out how to develop my business further. Through the coaching programme, I have increased the number of people signed up for my e-course by 400%! I have also improved my advertising, developed a structure for my new e-book and gained lots of information that I can use to develop my business in the future. The coaching has done everything I wanted and more!”
