Quick ways to bring in some extra cash or develop a side hustle as an ELT/ESL freelancer

As an ELT or ESL freelancer, you know that the ebb and flow of work can be unpredictable. There are times when your schedule is overflowing and then there are those moments when things slow down. Feast and famine.

In this video I’m going to discuss some steps you can take when your income dips or things slow down, and you need to create a quick cash injection, or develop a side hustle. This might be a passive income product like a short digital course, or a bite size live service.

I'll talk you through how to decide what to offer and get it off the ground quickly.

And here are the links to find out more about my new short digital courses:

If you struggle with (or avoid) sales calls because you don't want to do that whole pushy don't-let-them-leave-until-they sign-up thing, you'll love The Non-Sleazy Sales Call Kit. I take you step by step through the process I use and teach to help you run really effective sales calls with no sleaze at all.

And if you want to save time and energy, while giving your clients a first class experience, I've developed The Happy Client Template Toolkit.

15 template emails

3 questionnaire/forms

2 PDFs (a samples sales PDF and a list of things to consider when creating a client contract)

and 10 short videos with tips and strategies for each step of the client journey

Freelance language teachers… do you look at your calendar and dread your day full of calls?

Every client seems to need something different, you're constantly re-inventing the wheel, and
it feels like there’s a (pretty low) ceiling on what you can charge?

Something needs to change, but you’re too busy serving clients to even have time to work it
out.

I’ve created a detailed guide to help you figure out how you could change your business
model to grow your business, be able to serve more of the right clients, in less time, while
making more money- without needing to be on social media 24/7.

And over the last four years I’ve helped well over 100 teachers, trainers and coaches do
exactly this through my group programme, Designed to Flourish.

Follow this link to get instant access to the guide (hint - the first 2 are my personal favourites)

Hi, I’m Rachael. Like many people in our profession, I didn’t exactly grow up dreaming of working in ELT, but what made me fall in love with it was two main things:

❤ The opportunity to work directly with people and help them to help themselves change their lives for the better.

❤ The great colleagues I got to work with, as a teacher, teacher trainer, manager and materials writer.

Working as a business and mindset coach with ELT freelance professionals enables me to combine both those things, and to use the skills and experience I have to have a real impact.

One of the things I don’t like about ELT is the way that so many excellent professionals are underpaid, undervalued and scraping by. I also far too often see people working themselves into the ground. This might be OK when we’re in our early twenties with no responsibilities, but it’s no way to run a sustainable and enjoyable professional career.

I want to really challenge the low expectations, and culture of ‘having to’ accept poor conditions and teach ELT freelancers the steps they can take to make their businesses truly work for them.

I have: ⭐ 30 years of experience in the industry ⭐ 13 years as a successful small ELT business owner ⭐ heaps of training and coaching in running a small business, organic marketing and social media, copywriting and more …..as well as being a trained psychotherapist, counsellor, and coach.

This makes me ideally placed to empower freelance ELT professionals to earn more, work less, and live more fully. And that’s what it’s all about.
