Managing LinkedIn ghostwriting, CV facelifts, and AI consulting feels like juggling fire. My secret - 40% recurring revenue (ghostwriting retainers, monthly CV packages) covers baseline expenses, 60% variable (AI model builds, rush CV jobs) drives growth. I track each stream weekly, not monthly. When AI requests dropped 60% last quarter, I pivoted to new ghostwriting clients within weeks instead of panicking at month-end. Maintain a 3-month expense buffer before expanding services. This eliminates desperation pricing and lets you stay selective with projects. Consistency comes from systems and financial cushions, not just diversifying skills.

I treat content like a business. Revenue streams don’t mean anything without a system. I build offers with recurring potential, automate delivery, and stack cash flow like layers. The key isn’t more income—it’s consistent income. I focus on cash that shows up without begging for attention. Then I reinvest profits into scalable plays that don’t rely on me working 24/7. That’s how you escape the trap and keep growing without burning out. 💰📈

I would ocus on the projects I love most and make sure they’re profitable — or find a way to make them so. Jim Rohn might say: "Passion fuels your purpose, but discipline funds your freedom. Do what you love, but don't forget to get paid."
