What Students are Saying about Freelance University!

"FREELANCE UNIVERSITY HAS TAKEN MY BUSINESS TO ANOTHER LEVEL."

Last week a client told me: I don’t know what you’ve been doing for the past couple of months, but you’re killing it”. You know the only thing that changed? I registered for Freelance University! Since then, my clients have been giving me more responsibilities! Every time I have a question about how to handle a situation with a client, or a task, I am confident that I can get the answers in one of the University classes. I can genuinely say that Freelance University has expanded what I believed was possible. You need to sign up!

What Students are Saying about Freelance University!

"I LOVE the priceless information and training along with the Private Student community."

To me Freelance University is almost a “necessary business expense” (which is tax deductible 😊) and worth every penny. Especially for a new freelance startup, there’s a lot of other “schools” out there, but none compare with this one. Additionally, Kelly and Craig bring so much of themselves to it and are awesome to deal with! This is a MUST!

Cindy Frisendahl

"I started my VA business in 2012 at the age of 57."

I wanted to be self employed, have a flexible schedule, be able to work from anywhere and do what I love. I also needed to hone my skill set. I found that with Freelance University. They have the best model for on-line training that I have ever seen for Freelancers. l love that for a yearly fee, I can take all of the courses offered in the comfort of my office at home or wherever I happen to be in the world!
