231: Create a Freelance Income from Scratch and Live Life on Your Own Terms from Fiverr Voiceover Artist, Fiverr Ambassador, and Host of the Fiverrcast Redd Horrocks
Redd Horrocks from InstantVoicemails.com was a voice actor for 13-14 years and discovered Fiverr as a way to do what she loves while living anywhere and setting her own hours. She has over 13,000 reviews from satisfied customers, has completed 27,000 jobs on Fiverr, plus 3,000 on other sites -- generating a six figure freelancing income from just 4 hours a day on weekdays and 1 hour per day on weekends.
Listen in as Redd explains how she's streamlined her process with a personal assistant, how she markets her Fiverr business with buyer requests (as well as over-delivering since you never know if "your next client will become your best client"), and how she's simplified her pricing structure to generate tons of extra sales.

The Steps
- Phase 1: day job (get some income rolling in, overlap skills with your internet business if possible, find the win-win scenario)
- Phase 2: freelancing (small jobs, don't become a monthly employee, get good at just one hour per day, avoid scope creep)
- Phase 3: information products (solutions to real problems, find the sweet spot between power, simplicity, and speed)
- Phase 4: membership sites & passive income (use the untapped potential of your list, 2 week mini-launch & pitch webinar, keep piling in a batch of members)
List, Traffic, and Offers
- list: prospects and buyers (email autoresponder, opt-in page, follow-up sequence)
- traffic: bigger community than yours, joint ventures, SEO (blog posts, guest posts, YouTube videos, podcasts), PPC (retargeting, AdWords, Facebook, Bing)
- offers: affiliate products, resale rights, $7 solutions, $197-$497 four-part membership course, $2000/month coaching program
- time management: four daily tasks, wake up one hour earlier, leave the computer when you're done
