Your 30-Day Business Startup Course
Starting your freelance business can feel like launching a rocket without testing the engines, plotting a course blindfolded, or even knowing if there’s fuel on board.
This is the course I wish I had when I was starting out.
The Freelancer Launchpad is your 30-day guide to getting your first clients, setting up simple systems, and building real momentum—without needing fancy tools, a huge network, or a perfectly polished portfolio.
As someone who’s turned two freelance consultancies into fast-growth digital agencies, I’ve learned through years of trial and error, burnt-out launches, and last-minute scrambles. I’ve packaged all of that experience into one short, practical course to help you shortcut the pain and build a solid business foundation—fast.
Are there any course requirements or prerequisites?
No experience needed. This course is built for beginners with a laptop and internet connection.
Who this course is for?
New freelancers, creatives and consultants ready to turn their skills into a real business and land their first paying clients.
You don’t need to be techy. You don’t need a big budget. You don’t need to know exactly what niche you’re going to focus on.
You just need a plan.
Let’s crack on…
What you’ll learn inside this course:
-
Learn how to show up consistently, build momentum, and post without fear—no viral strategy needed, just practical habits that work.
-
This is specifically for those who hate sales. You don’t need to be pushy. I’ll show you how to connect naturally, offer value, and let honest conversations do the heavy lifting.
-
Strip out the fluff. Build simple, clear offers that solve a problem, sound valuable, and are easy to say yes to.
-
Freelancing can be messy. We’ll fix that by getting organised (early), so your projects run smoother and stress stays low.
-
Bookings, payments, and client calls all in one place.
Ditch the software juggling. Flowlance is your new HQ for managing your time, income, and clients with zero fuss (or as close to zero as we can get!).
-
Learn how to say “no” the right way, protect your time, and keep control without turning your clients off.
-
I'll help you establish structure from day one so you don’t collapse after your first busy month.
-
Even if you’re working from your spare room, this course will help you to think like a business owner, not just a creative-for-hire. You’ll feel more confident, and your clients will too.
What is Flowlance?
Flowlance is an all-in-one business platform built specifically for freelancers. It combines bookings, payments, scheduling, and a client-facing portfolio into one streamlined system — so you can run your entire service business without juggling multiple tools.
We've teamed up with Flowlance because it removes so many of the early tech headaches freelancers face. No need to patch together five different bits of software or figure out complex automations — it's simple, affordable, and powerful from day one. This partnership means you can follow everything in the course and get up and running fast without needing to be a software specialist.
The Freelancer Launchpad
Here are the course chapters. If you are a beginner, I recommend tackling modules and chapters in the order provided; however, if you have already started your freelance career or are returning to this course, feel free to dip in and out at your own pace.

The Freelancer Launchpad Course & Community
-
Module 1: Visibility and Momentum
-
1.1: Introduction
When you’re starting out, it’s easy to obsess over making your content look perfect. But most people aren’t watching that closely yet.
-
1.2: Pop-up Lecture
Creating content can feel awkward, and imposter syndrome can sink in. However, if we keep it honest and simple, we can avoid this.
-
1.3: Workshop
In this workshop, we set up your Flowlance account from scratch and built your first live profile page.
-
1.4: Wrap-up
We’re not trying to go viral or build a personal brand empire overnight. We’re just showing up, consistently, with small actions that start to compound.
-
-
Module 2: Leads, Offers and Getting Paid
-
2.1: Introduction
No one wakes up in the morning thinking, “If only I had another vague coaching session to book.” This chapter sets the stage for building something real.
-
2.2: Pop-up Lecture
Let’s be honest. Most freelancers either copy what others are doing or completely freeze when it comes to creating their first offer.
-
2.3: Workshop
Let’s create a working digital offer from scratch, including using ChatGPT to draft a PDF, designing a product tile, and uploading it and getting it ready to sell.
-
2.4: Wrap-up
You’ve built something. It might be scrappy. It might be simple. But it’s yours, and it’s live.
-
-
Module 3: Onboarding, Calendars and Systems
-
3.1: Introduction
Things get real at this stage. You’ve got a product or service live, and people are beginning to take notice. Now you need to deliver.
-
3.2: Pop-up Lecture
Client work can spiral fast if you’re not clear from the start. This chapter is a straightforward approach to managing projects without chaos.
-
3.3: Workshop
Let’s create a 1:1 offer that sits neatly alongside the digital product. This could be a kick-start session, a follow-up workshop, or implementation.
-
3.4: Course Wrap-up
If you’ve followed along, you now have a fully functioning micro business — complete with a lead magnet, a digital product, and a 1:1 service.
