WILEY Freelance Your Way to Freedom: How to Free Yourself from the Corporate World and Build the Life of Your Dreams

A woman I went to high school with told me about Fiverr, and I joined in August 2022. I didn't put up my first gig until October, but as soon as I did, I jumped on YouTube to do Fiverr research and came across none other than Alex.Freelance Your Way to Freedom has everything a new freelancer needs to get started. From joining sites like Fiverr to creating your own freelancing agency to ultimately earning six figures, Alex goes in depth about everything you'll need to be successful at not only freelancing but marketing your services.The book is divided into four sections of freelancing basics, side hustling, personal branding, and financial freedom. You can read the book in its entirety, or skip to the section that's relevant to you. I've read it through once and am now bookmarking the chapters I want to dig deeper into as I expand my freelancing services and my personal brand.I highly recommend this read for anyone looking to start freelancing or even someone who wants to market and brand themselves or a business. Alex has seen nearly everything, and she takes that knowledge and graciously shares it with us so we don't have to stumble as much before we see our individual measure of success.Pick this one up for business, freelancing, or marketing!

I have been looking forward to this book since Alex announced. Her content on this subject matter has always been inspiring and thorough. This book did not disappoint. My favourite section is the one on personal branding. It is very easy to read and provides the exact blueprint needed to get you started on your freelance journey. It left me feeling inspired. I highly recommend!

Das Buch ist in einem gut verständlichen Englisch geschrieben und geht auf ein paar nette Aspekte ein (wie TikTok). Was man daraus macht, ist aber einem selbst überlassen. Freelancing soll laut der Autorin noch über online gehen, muss man testen!

I’ve been following Alex Fasulo for a while on Social Media and I’ve gained loads of value from following her content. When I bought her book, it really helped me realise that freelancing is the path I want to undertake with graphic design and video editing. I would totally be lost on where to start if it wasn’t for this book so I definitely recommend this book for people who want to get their foot on the door and have practical information to follow that skips all the fluff you see from typical finance books.Only thing that would have made it better is if the book contained actionable steps or some kind of companion document for the reader to apply the strategies as taking action is what’s ultimately going to get results. Without action, you won’t see much change but if you read this book and apply the knowledge into practice that’s when you see change. I’ve seen one other book talk about monetizable skills which includes actionable steps and a companion document to help the reader take action so if this book had something like that in place, I would have given it 5 stars.Regardless, it’s still a very good book with tons of value and it’s definitely a lot easier to read and apply the concepts compared to other finance books like the 4 hour workweek which can be a bit difficult to wrap your head around especially if you’re new to this digital age stuff.4/5 stars, highly recommend reading Alex Fasulo’s content. She still did a great job writing this book and it’s a great blueprint for getting started in the freelancing career.

This is an excellent book. Alex details what it takes to make it as a freelancer and achieve financial freedom at this current time. She breaks down things in a way that anyone can understand. Alex has already given so much information out for free that I was wondering if I would get anything new from this book. I got a lot of new things from reading this book and more.The chapters covering "how to automate your business" and "building a personal brand on social media" are worth the price alone. I finished the book in a day. I feel this book should be right up there with the books "The 4-Hour Workweek" and "Rich Dad Poor Dad." It's like a companion piece to the "The 4-Hour Workweek" that has updated ideas and is familiar with today's technological landscape.I brought both the kindle and physical copies. I wanted to support Alex by buying both formats. The Kindle version is also good to have, so you can use the clickable links for the resources she gives. I could go on and on singing the praises about this book. Buy it right now. You won't regret it.
