The antidote to hating selling yourself, your stalker surface area, + more
I talk to a lot of people in tech with side hustles (👀DiscoLink Club members), and one of the things I hear constantly and without end is: I’m super, super good at the thing I do. I’m really good at building the thing/ doing the thing/ executing on it.
Setting new money goals, negotiating your prices, + more
We’re pretty hell-bent on talking about money openly and frankly with the safety of the DiscoLink Club private Discord server - we set money goals openly, and we share wins (and losses) openly as well. We’ve seen this make more money for members time and time again.
Shut down routines between side projects, how to price work for new clients, + more
Multihyphenates by definition have a lot of plates spinning - whether you’re a full-on solopreneur with a few sources of revenue, or you have a day job alongside a side hustle, context and role switching are parts of your daily life. And they’re exhausting. We expect to be able to jump from one thing to another, but in reality our brains need much more time to catch up.
Practice is the cure for not knowing, getting paid is weird and sometimes hard, and more
After the AMA with Scott Hanselman this Tuesday, we stayed on afterwards to chat about the upcoming Masterclass, and I was struck by something he said that’s so simple, yet couldn’t be more true. The only way out of the nagging discomfort of “not knowing” or learning something new is practice. That’s it. That’s the hack.
It’s not as simple as deciding to take the road not taken, stop trying to wash yesterday’s dirty dishes, + more
As a professional with multiple income streams, you’ve surely made a diversion in routing from what is generally considered the golden pathway to success: work up the ladder at your 9-5 -> become C-suite -> retire on a bed of money.
Riding out time to expertise, saying no is the ultimate productivity hack + more
Every once in a while, I come across a tweet that lives rent-free in my head for months on end, continuously proving itself to be true. Since she posted about it earlier this year, not a day has gone by that I haven’t thought about Amanda Goetz’s thoughts on Time to Expertise (TTE). That’s a lot of days.
Excitement is a better motivator than discipline, how to communicate missing deadlines + more
It’s a very big week for us here at BCM: we officially opened the new BCM Club - an expansion on what we kicked off in Beta in January. This time, we’re 70+ people strong (and not just any people, absolutely amazing incredible humans who are crushing it in dayjobs and side hustles).
Rest as a strategy to reaching goals, why having a messy desk leads to creativity + more
As a professional with multiple income streams, you are probably no stranger to working hard - very, very hard. You’re used to using your skills and experience, as well as your sheer determination, to break down walls and move mountains.
Figuring it out together, how to introduce yourself + more
We don’t claim to have all the answers around here. You’ll never catch us flaunting the high revenue number + short amount of time formula to get your attention, and we’ll never, ever give you the “proven” playbook for gazillions of dollars in your bank account tomorrow.
