Are YOU – looking forward to retirement, or maybe you already retired? But one thing you know for sure is you want to be done with the long commute to and from work, the long hours at work away from home and your family, away from the office politics. You are ready to work when you want and from where you want to and pick the jobs you want.

Say hello to freelancing and being a digital nomad!

This is confusing, you say. Do I have what it takes to be successful? How do I get jobs if I am a nomad?

Here is where you will benefit from my many years in the workforce working such varied jobs as child care, retail, non-profits, and doctors’ offices. Let me show you how I could make the move from living in the United States to enjoying retirement in Panama while still earning an income freelancing.

My Goal

My goal as a freelance coach is to help my clients earn a portable income to pursue their interests, whether it be traveling the world, visiting family and friends, or whatever they choose, while having a flexible schedule that allows them to earn some money while keeping their brains sharp.

How do I do this?

I am an independent certified Barefoot Consultants® Coaching Professional. Using the proven Barefoot Consultants® system and my personal experience, we will work together to accelerate your process and get you established in the online marketplace earning an income while working the hours that you choose and from where you choose.

Why do you need a coach?

A coach will keep you accountable and on track. A coach will help you weed out the important things to concentrate on. A coach will save you time. A coach will help you live your dreams instead of learning a new task on your own. A coach will keep you on the right path when life wants to detour your progress.

Sure, you can do this on your own. But the path from the traditional workplace to freelancing can be a slow, long, and frustrating experience. Why do it alone when you can have the expertise of a Barefoot Consultants® Coaching Professional?

Who is a great client?

You are IF:

You want to realize your freelancing goals
You don’t mind being out of your comfort zone
You are open to coaching and ready to follow advice
You are prepared to commit to succeed and follow your dreams

What’s next?

Due to my busy schedule and my commitments to my current clients, I am very selective about who I work with.

I can only work with people who are truly ready to become a successful freelancer and who are willing to be held accountable.

If this sounds like you, please take advantage of my free 20-minute consultation, where we will discover if we are an excellent fit to accelerate your career in the freelancing world.

I look forward to getting you started on your new freelancing adventure!

Golden Handcuffs

Are you struggling to remove your golden handcuffs? Stuck in a job that is too good to quit but not really what you want to do? Not sure if you have the money to retire or what you will do to keep active once you do?

That was where I was in 2017. Since then, I have retired and moved from the United States to Panama with my wife, two dogs, and our sailboat. When we realized that we did not have enough money to feel secure, we found that we could fill in the gaps with online freelancing.

If I could do it, you can too

Freelancing is a way to leverage the skills you have learned in your career to develop a portable income that allows you to work wherever you want to live. It lets you work as much or as little as you want and provides a great supplemental income.

How I can help you

For most people, getting started is the hardest part. There are many different online sites where you can look for jobs and many mistakes you can make as you progress.

Sadly, many people find they struggle to make themselves marketable in the skills-based economy. Many do not even get on a job board. In my experience, the problem is not with their skills or abilities but rather the approach they use. You may find that you have to change your mindset. It is different to look for projects based on specific skills rather than getting hired for a job. When I needed help to make the transition, Barefoot Consultants® provided me with a proven method to find marketable skills and develop an online business.

Now I am ready to guide you through the process to your success. After a year-long training process, I am now an independent Certified Barefoot Consultants® Professional Coach.

My Background

I spent many years helping large companies adjust their Information Technology strategy to make their company more competitive. A big part of my success was my ability to mentor senior technology leaders so that they could be more successful.

In addition to my corporate work, I spent many years assisting people in dealing with their fear and learning to do things they never thought possible as a water safety instructor and a professional ski instructor.

What I Need From You

I will do my best to ensure that you are successful in your freelancing career. If you are committed to success, I will help you get there. You will need to put some time into your growth. I will work with you to identify what you need to do and set up realistic goals for completion. Part of my job is to hold you accountable for those commitments. That way, we will both be successful.

Getting Started

Barefoot Consultants® provides the best training available to get started in freelancing. In addition to the basic training, there are a variety of coaching packages that I offer to help you successfully launch your freelancing career. Your short-term and long-term goals will help you determine which package is best suited for you. Your finished product will be completed efficiently with your input throughout the process.

To get started, I will offer you a free 20-minute consultation session so that we can get to know each other and discuss your freelancing lifestyle goals. To schedule a consultation, please click here: https://calendly.com/coachrobertthompson/free-consultation.
