Working For Yourself

Don’t Wait Till the End of the Day to Work On Your Side Hustle

Ever heard the concept of “pay yourself first?”

This advice usually applies to money…

But it can (and should) also apply to your time.

If you’re working on a side hustle, don’t leave it till the end of your day…

Because you’ll often be too tired or stressed out to put in quality time on it.

Instead, spend the first hour of your day working for yourself.

Whether that’s…

→  Growing your audience on social media
→  Building a digital product
→  Or learning new skills

Not only will that investment compound over time…

But putting yourself first is a subconscious signal that will give you a greater feeling of control over your business and your life.

Tool of the Week

How to Score Mainstream Media Features Without a PR Agent or Inside Connections

Looking to set yourself apart from the competition?

Aside from the obvious ways…

Like a strong social media presence and professional portfolio website…

There’s another way to build trust & credibility with potential clients:

Being featured on other media websites.

This allows you to “borrow” the hard-earned credibility of the websites featuring you…

And display them in your “As Seen On” section.

Now, up until recently, the only way to land these types of features was through a PR agent or inside connections.

But not anymore.

That’s because Featured makes it possible to land them for free.

With it, you can get featured on sites like:

- Fast Company
- Entrepreneur
- HubSpot
- Fiverr
- Inc.
- And lots more

Sound too good to be true?

Here’s the thing:

These websites are always looking for expert quotes to feed the content beast.

So it’s a win/win.

In fact, we’ve already used it to land features on Entrepreneur, Hubspot, Fiverr and several other websites this year.
