Starting out on the freelance path, you might have been driven by passion, necessity, or the alluring freedom of working from anywhere. At first, it may have had the ring of a side hustle—an extra income stream to complement your nine-to-five. Yet here you are, envisioning the possibilities of transforming it into a full-fledged, wealth-building business. Perhaps you’ve tasted success, and felt the rush of landing a big client or seeing your bank balance spill over with the fruits of your labor. No doubt about it, the shift from side gig to business dynamo requires vision, strategy, and a sprinkling of bravery.
