The
early years of any business is a crucial make-or-break period and most small
businesses agree mentors are vital to success. In a recent study published by
American Express it found 61 percent of
small business owners mentor others, and 58 percent specifically mentor younger
entrepreneurs. For Brand Strategist Maura Walters she is a copywriter,
content strategist, and business mentor for freelancers looking to turn their
craft into a profitable full-time business. After a decade in national media as
a magazine writer and editor, Maura officially launched her own business in 2020
and made more than six figures in her first year. Now, she's passionate about
helping freelancers build sustainable careers that they love —- without burning
out or worrying where the next paycheck is coming from. “Many
freelancers get caught in the hamster wheel of constant burnout and worrying
where the next paycheck is coming from. I'm here to help them get out of the
feast-or-famine cycle FOR GOOD, and become the passionate, profitable business
owners they’re meant to be.
I spent more than a decade freelance writing—feeling burnt
out from the constant hustle, panicking over the next assignment, and running
around like a chicken with my head cut off because I had zero professional
boundaries. In 2020 I decided to launch a copywriting and content strategy
business that supports female-founded brands (a.k.a. my dream clients) and made
more than six figures in my first year.
The moment I got clear on who my ideal clients are, took
control of my calendar, and started charging what I was worth, EVERYTHING
changed. Now I'm sharing everything you need to know to go from frantic
freelancer (or side hustler) to full-time entrepreneur.” She
joined me this week to tell me more.
