Publisher's summary

Are you an introvert?

If you're happy in your own company most of the time, have just a few really close friends, and prefer to work alone, the answer is probably yes.

Introverts find external stimulation overwhelming, so they look for ways to retreat from it. A situation that’s easy or fun for one person can be way too much for an introvert. That's fine, as long as they have a choice. But that can change when they go to work.

Modern working styles like open-plan offices, brainstorming, and teamwork can be really hard on introverts. The hands-on work is okay, but the emotional labor of working with others can be draining.

Freelancing offers introverts a way out - a chance to work alone, control their workload, and create their own workspace. It can be ideal. However, it also takes work.

Going freelance means running a one-person business. It means setting direction, organizing your schedule, and setting priorities. It means hustling for work and setting prices. And it means building a network that will offer vital support.

Doing all that is hard enough for anyone - but particularly for introverts. To make a success of freelancing, you'll need to learn some new skills, push yourself to meet some challenges, and build up your confidence.

The Freelance Introvert will show you how to make that happen. It will teach you all about creating and managing your freelance business, from setting aims and getting set up to time management, working with clients, and marketing.

Here's what you'll learn:

  • Getting started
  • Choosing your future
  • Getting set up
  • Managing your time
  • Working with clients
  • Marketing yourself
  • Setting and agreeing prices
  • Building your confidence
  • Choosing positive beliefs

Written by Tom Albrighton - author, veteran freelancer, ProCopywriters cofounder, and a confirmed introvert - The Freelance Introvert is the book you need for the life you want.

Better understand yourself & how to enjoy success

I found this a very useful book that has given me a better understanding of why I made the career choices that I've made. I listened to the book and found the narration well produced and professionally delivered. If one of the reasons you've chosen the life of a freelancer is because you a more of an introvert than an extrovert, this is the book for you.

Inspiring for the INTJ

I enjoyed this book. Being an introvert I related to the content and I enjoyed its narration. The narrator spoke clearly and was easy to understand and the author proposed several good ideas I will take into account. I especially liked the chapter on time management.
