From there, Pofeldt goes into the specifics of setting up a successful business. She explains how to choose an attractive and profitable niche, how to make the most of social media, and how to build a great website. Additionally, she provides readers with valuable insights on recurring revenue streams and the importance of creating partnerships with other professionals in the same field.
The book is filled with helpful and straightforward advice on topics such as raising money, marketing and branding, sales, creating the right environment to thrive, finding and managing the right people, and outsourcing. Pofeldt even explains the benefits of using an online platform to outsource talent, such as using Fiverr or Elance.
