Retainers are supposed to make freelancing feel secure.. So why can losing one client suddenly wipe out a huge chunk of your income, even when your business felt healthy the week before?

And why does earning more always seem to require more clients, more delivery and more of your time?

In this free live masterclass, we’ll show you exactly what’s really creating the problem, and the business model shift that gives you more options without impacting the income you already have.

66.5%

of freelancers are heavily reliant on retainers.

Only 13.8%

have a genuinely balanced model.

In this free live masterclass, you’ll discover how to…

Stop relying on “another retainer” as the answer to more income

And see where the real risk sits in your current business model.

Create more ways for businesses to spend money with you

Without automatically adding another long-term client to your workload.

Work out what service makes sense for your business next

Based on your time, capacity, audience and income goals.

This is for you if…

  • You’re too reliant on a handful of retainer clients
    …and losing one would leave a noticeable hole.

  • You want to earn more, but don’t want more ongoing client work
    Your capacity is already telling you that “just add more clients” isn’t the right answer.

  • You’re turning away good leads who can’t afford your fees
    ...and you want more ways to work with them without discounting your main service.

  • You’ve recently lost a client
    ... and you need to replace the income while refilling their spot.

hello! we're the two lauras...

We know this problem from both sides.

Between us, we’ve spent 30+ years in marketing, 18 years self-employed, and since 2019 we’ve worked with over 5,000 freelance social media managers.

But we’ve also had to build businesses that don’t depend on unlimited time or one type of client.

That’s why we created the Offer Triangle® — the framework we’ll introduce in this masterclass.

Our Offer Decision tool helps you narrow down your options based on your:

Time · Income needs · Capacity · Audience · Goals

So you can leave knowing which direction makes the most sense for the business you have right now.

Available to live attendees.
