Episode 37: DYF Conf Roundtable

The Double Your Freelancing Conference that took place last month In Norfolk brought a lot of great people together to share information and ideas.  In this episode, 5 of the speakers from the conference join me to discuss what value they got from the conference and their overall impressions.

The Panel:

Mojca Mars - owner of Super Spicy Media, social media consultant

Brian Casel - owner of Audience Ops, content marketing service

Julie Elster -  owner of Just Tell Julie, virtual accounts receivable service

Kurt Elster - ecommerce consultant who helps shopify stores double their revenue

Kai Davis - outreach consultant who helpsconsultants and product creators increase their traffic and grow their audience

We discuss some of the highlights of the Double Your Freelancing Conference, including:

• The sense of community we all felt that began with Slack conversations before the conference and continued through the event


• The fact that the speakers felt like attendees too


• Looking at attending conferences as an investment in your business


• Learning that so many people were forward-thinking with their businesses


• Brennan’s desire to have an actionable conference


• The speakers that inspired us to take action, apply their direction in some way to our own businesses and strive for productivity and focus


• a core theme of: be intentional in your business

With the success of the first Double your Freelancing Conference, I’m planning a European version, possibly in June 2016!
