Hi all, It's time for another freelancer's meetup! Freelancing in Vienna is the (semi) regular meetup for independent professionals in the city. Two talks, free pizza and drinks, and time to connect with people who work the same way you do. Agenda * 18:30 Doors open * 19:00 Welcome * 19:10 **Build in Public: A Freelancer's Playbook for Launching an AI Product in 4 Weeks** by Clemens Helm * 19:40 Pizza & drinks * 20:10 **Consistency and Discipline in Freelancing: Turning Revenue Goals into Daily Targets** by Alexander Schörghuber * 20:40 Networking * \~21:30 Wrap up **Talks** **Build in Public: A Freelancer's Playbook for Launching an AI Product in 4 Weeks** by **[Clemens Helm](https://www.linkedin.com/in/clemenshelm/)** Most freelancers sell hours. I wanted to build something of my own. So I started building Pinchy (heypinchy.com) — a self-hosted AI agent platform — completely in public. Daily LinkedIn posts, a dev blog, open source on GitHub, guerilla marketing. The full stack, not just code. The surprising part: the product isn't even the point. The process is the portfolio. In this talk I'll share: * Why "Build in Public" is a powerful strategy for freelancers who want to shift into a new field (in my case: AI) * How AI tools helped me ship fast — the product, the website, the branding, the docs, even the logo were all built with AI assistance * What actually worked for visibility (and what flopped) — with real numbers from LinkedIn, GitHub, and website analytics * How documenting your work publicly builds more credibility than any CV or portfolio page ever could Whether you're thinking about launching your own product, pivoting into AI, or just want to stand out as a freelancer — this is 20 years of freelancing distilled into 4 weeks of building out loud. **Consistency and Discipline in Freelancing: Turning Revenue Goals into Daily Targets** by **[Alexander Schörghuber](https://alex-schoerg.at/)** Freelancing promises freedom: no boss, no fixed hours, no one telling you when to work. But that freedom comes with a hidden challenge: there is no built-in structure that ensures you're actually working enough to reach your financial goals. Most freelancers track time. But many don't actually know what they should be aiming for, or whether they're on track to reach their revenue goals. In this talk I'll share how thinking in daily billable targets instead of vague productivity can bring structure and predictability back into freelancing. Topics include: * Why freelancing often oscillates between overworking and falling behind financially * How translating revenue goals into daily billable targets changes decision making * A practical system (controli.at) that connects time tracking with revenue goals This talk is for freelancers who want to keep the freedom of freelancing, while adding the discipline and predictability of a structured work life. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Want to give a talk at the next meetup?** We're looking for speakers. 20–30 minutes on anything relevant to working independently. Send a message to me (Aaron) here on meetup. \-\-\- We're sponsored for the space and snacks again by https://www.lean-coders.at/, a wonderful freelancer focused "agency" in Vienna. They are currently offering coworking desks for interested freelancers. Their team of professional devs and PMs would also love to hear about your next software project. If you know of anyone looking for a great software team, they even have an affiliate program for referrals https://lean-coders.at/affiliate/ See you soon!!

Feeling down? Sometimes depressed? Can't focus? Negativity & stress? Recent losses? Creativity in career and personal life hindered by mental blocks? Sometimes we never fully recover from traumatic experiences. Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future. What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs. At this free local Meetup event we will talk about: * What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic. * Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences? * How to break away from negativity and focus on the future * What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions? Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home. Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center.
