Hey ,
Gabriele is a Web Designer from Italy. He joined the BONT Club in November 2024, and eight months later he started his first partnership with a US agency, charging $50 per hour. Double what he was charging before.
If you want your rates moving in that direction, you can hop on board too.
This is what he wrote about it:
"Even if I kind of knew how I should've approached my freelance business, joining the BONT club gave me the guidance and clarity I needed to grow by following a precise blueprint with actionable steps, along with Adrián's ongoing feedback."
He already knew a good part of it. What he was missing was the order to do things in, and someone telling him when he had drifted off track.
Before that, in his own words, he was stuck in "that messy part of my work life where I didn't know where to go."
The first thing that moved was his positioning:
"Niching down (and choosing the right niche) was the best thing I could do; I gained more credibility and was able to position myself as an experienced designer in that niche."
I know that gap from the inside. I spent three years winging my own consulting business, busy every month and still not in control. What changed it was investing almost 70% of what my wife and I had saved for our dream home into a mentorship. It paid for itself in 6 months, and we ended up building that house four years earlier than planned.
Charging more for work you already do well is part of what we work on inside the BONT Club, with a plan to follow and my feedback along the way. If that is where you want to be in eight months, book a call.
As always my friend, let's bridge the gap 1px at a time!
Best,
Adrian Somoza
