    How a Side Hustler Makes 7000 Monthly as a Freelance B2B Email Copywriter
    Jun 29 2026
    In this episode, we break down how a former marketing manager turned side hustler earns $7,000 a month writing B2B email sequences for SaaS and professional services companies. No list of 50 clients—just three core accounts paying $2,000-$3,000 per month for two emails per week each. We walk through the rate negotiation, the specific frameworks used (like the 'open-loop' hook and the 'problem-stack' paragraph), and how she built a minimal portfolio that landed her first $3,000 client within 30 days of starting. Lucas and Luna also discuss why B2B email copywriting is a rare niche where skill matters more than experience, and why companies are willing to pay premium rates for someone who can consistently turn inbox noise into booked calls. #B2BEmailCopywriting #FreelanceCopywriter #SideHustle #EmailMarketing #SalesCopy #SaaSCopy #FreelanceIncome #CopywritingTips #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #TheSideHustlePodcast #PassionProjects #ExtraIncome #OpenLoopHook #ProblemStack #ClientAcquisition #RateNegotiation #EmailSequences Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How to Make 6000 Monthly as a Freelance Virtual Assistant

    How to Make 6000 Monthly as a Freelance Virtual Assistant
    Jun 28 2026
    In this episode, Lucas and Luna dive into the world of freelance virtual assisting — a side hustle that's grown 41% since 2020 according to Upwork. They break down how one former executive assistant, Maria Chen, built a $6,000/month VA business specializing in calendar management and email triage for busy startup founders. Lucas walks through her exact framework: how she charges $50/hour with retainer packages, uses tools like Calendly and Notion to automate the repetitive stuff, and lands clients through cold LinkedIn DMs. Luna challenges whether the VA market is getting saturated, and they discuss the surprisingly high ceiling for niche VAs who know tools like HubSpot or Salesforce. Plus, a no-BS look at the real hours involved — Maria works about 25 hours a week, not the 'passive income' fantasy. If you've ever thought about virtual assisting, this episode gives you the actual numbers, the pricing playbook, and the one skill Lucas says separates a $25/hour VA from a $75/hour one. #VirtualAssistant #Freelancing #SideHustle #RemoteWork #ExecutiveAssistant #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Upwork #FreelanceTips #CalendarManagement #EmailTriage #Notion #Calendly #ColdOutreach #LinkedIn #StartupLife #WorkFromHome Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
