5. Three Things I wish I did when starting out as a freelancer!
In this short and sweet heater, Zach Rippey reflects on three things he wishes he had done differently when starting out as a freelancer. First, he shares with you the importance of investing in high-quality gig images that showcase your face and clearly explain your services. Secondly, he highlights the missed opportunity of not investing in a high-quality video that effectively demonstrates why clients should hire him. He shares tips on utilizing the short time frame provided in videos to upsell oneself and make the ordering process simple. Lastly, he emphasizes the value of five-star reviews in attracting more clients and being able to raise prices. Zach encourages listeners to learn from his experiences and strive for excellence in their own freelancing careers!

4. To be a Great Writer, you have to be a Great Thinker
Are you constantly thinking of new ideas but struggling to know which ones are good and which ones are bad? In this episode, I'm sharing with you my experiences of allowing my brain to be a spider web of ideas! I do this by letting my brain be bored, going on walks, and sitting by the pond while soaking in the silence. I stack up ideas and hone in on the ones that I know connect best with my brand, my business, and my interests. And just like writing, you gotta edit and polish those original thoughts but without the first draft, you’ll never get to the final copy. Today I'ma help you figure out which of your ideas are good and which ones are bad! Tune in to Ep. 4 NOW!

2. Good Business is Just Showing Up Every Day
Zach Rippey is back in the booth with another banger! 💥 From waiter to writer (https://www.amazon.com/21-Days-Africa-Ministering-Front/dp/B0BGNXTH1K), here's the truth: I may not be the best, but I'm efficient. Learning and growing, I show up even on tough days. Inspired by my father-in-law's words, "Good business is just showing up every day," I've learned consistency is the winning formula. For my business, it means daily writing, client outreach, brainstorming, and content creation. Three years into this game, success means doing what I love and helping others. Discipline and a long-term vision are crucial. In freelancing, making your schedule counts only if you stick to it. Even when the sun is shining and your wife looking fine, prioritizing your business is key. Quality work on tough days sets apart good from great. Whether in writing, creating, or fatherhood, this principle remains unchanged. The goal isn't just working for oneself but becoming a boss known for results. Tune in to discover how consistency wins in freelancing and beyond.
