๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™€๏ธ Meet Nicki, an innovative and forwar ๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™€๏ธ Meet Nicki, an innovative and forward thinking HR Leader.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € ๐Ÿ’Ž Whatโ€™s the best piece of advice youโ€™d give to someone who is waiting to take the leap to work for themselves?โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € You donโ€™t have to leap; you just have to take the first small step. It can be incredibly scary moving from a permanent paid role to a freelancing gig, particularly financially. I wasnโ€™t (and still am not!) ready to fling myself into the freelancing world full-time, so I made small and measured steps towards building Peoplee into a successful and financially secure gig. That meant trying to balance paid employment as a HR Director, as well as growing Peoplee client base at the same timeโ€ฆ. It can be hard work, but it is paying off, and neither my permanent role, nor Peoplee have suffered โ€“ in fact, I consider it to mean I have double the exposure!โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € ๐Ÿ’Ž Best tips for winning new business?โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € I have found that winning new business is all about your product and service offering and pricing, as well as your relationships. If you do great work, charge a competitive price, and ensure that your client relationships are nurtured โ€“ youโ€™re most of the way there! I have also won business and expanded my networks through Freelancing Gems!โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € ๐Ÿ’Ž What is a business win youโ€™re currently celebrating? โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € I have recently been nominated for 3 different awards/recognition opportunities which is so completely mind-blowing. The Australian Human Resource Institute โ€˜Dave Ulrich Practitioner Awardโ€™ (a hugely coveted HR Industry award), two AusMumpreneur Awards (Services for Women and B2B), and the Mumpreneur Movement Magazine CoverWoman opportunity (a chance to grace the cover of the Mumpreneur Movement Magazine and talk about my story!)โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € You can read more about Nicki's freelance journey on the FG blog and can connect with her on the Gem Directory.

๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™€๏ธ Meet Taylor, a communications profes ๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™€๏ธ Meet Taylor, a communications professional with a passion for working with clients focused on womenโ€™s wellbeing. Taylor left her full time role to join the gig economy in February this year for more responsibility and admits she got more than she bargained for. We spoke with Taylor to talk about all things freelance, and how sheโ€™s been able to grow her team in 5 short months.โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € ๐Ÿ’Ž When and why did you ditch the 9-5 and go out on your own?โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € I left my full time job in February of this year because I was looking for change and more responsibility. I got more than I bargained for in establishing Canopy Media with my Business Partner but the experience has re-energised me. It feels like there are no limits to what I can achieve with my clients. We make the rules together and we can be as creative and out of the box as we want to be!โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € ๐Ÿ’Ž Whatโ€™s the best piece of advice youโ€™d give to someone who is waiting to take the leap to work for themselves?Aside from โ€˜do itโ€™, build up some savings if you can, join Freelancing Gems and utilise your network!
