GBProvides helpful information for free… Provides helpful information for free lancers and provides information on best practices to follow and information on pitfalls and what should ring alarm bells about the prospective client. From what I garher, one part is still not very fleshed out for the newbies on how their lifetime experience relates to a marketable skill set post retirement in a fast changing tech environment. Many with long years of experience do not possess the degrees or certificates rquired. For example, many people have worked as Project Managers over a long period of time with a company but never needed to acquire the PMP certification. Actually when they starting managing projects, even large ones, there was no PMP and certifications.

GBSkipped the guesswork The best part about Barefoot Consultants is that I didn’t have to figure out freelancing on my own. Many of the questions at the beginning of any new business such as ‘what do I sell?’, ‘whom do I sell it to?’, ‘how much to charge?’, and many more were already answered with the test of time and the testament of success. The simple proven winning formula was literally laid over the top of skills I already possess which were so kindly and carefully uncovered by my certified coach. Had I known that I would have such a competent guide to help me move through this time of transition from my previous careers, work and life experiences, into being my own boss, creating my own hours and literally showing me how I can work anywhere I can get an internet connection, I would have paid double and started 5 years sooner.

CABarefoot Consultants helped me get my first freelance gig! I joined the Barefoot Consultants' Portable Income Masteclass in order to learn how to become a Digital Nomad. The program focused on how to effectively use UpWork. The program was professional, informative and supportive. I am thrilled to share that using what I learned in the program, my first proposal was accepted! Sign up for Barefoot Consultants if you want the freedom of being a freelancer.
