When I first started out as a freelancer, I didn’t know where to begin. I wanted to be a digital nomad, but I had no idea how to make that happen…
…or how to earn good money doing it.
I spent my spare time studying how to break into the gig economy, reading articles about how to be a high-paid writer, and buying courses that promised me great success.
But it was all still confusing and, for a long time, misdirected.
Until one day, I found my mentor.
With him, I learned how to send pitches, how to write content that ranks, and how to work with editors and businesses so that they’d hire me again and again.
But finding a good mentor is hard. Not all of them will give you the time and resources to flourish as an independent contractor. And not all of them are perfectly suited to your own interests.
That’s why I created this coaching program.
I’ve helped others get onto the freelancer track that eventually
- landed them a full-time job as a marketing manager
- opened up the opportunity to become a digital nomad and travel the world
- gave them their first SEO client
I’m not the best in the industry, I don’t claim to be. But I am exactly where you want to be and I can help you get there.
“marquis has been a guiding light well before my SEO journey began. she‘s pushed me, motivated me, and supported me in pursuing goals I didn’t even know I had.
from encouraging words to step-by-step “this is what you need to do” and handing me clients, she sees where your talent lies. she wants you to grow and she will be there to make sure you do. she has an open, kind, and zero judgment approach. it’s a blessing to work, learn and bloom with marquis.“
