What happens when your clients decide they can replace you with AI? In Lizzie Davey's case, three of them eventually came back. In Episode 10 of The Productive Freelancer, I'm joined by freelance writer, Freelance Magic founder, and creator of the Friday Freelance Tips newsletter, Lizzie Davey. Lizzie has spent more than a decade building a freelance writing business, working with SaaS and ecommerce brands including Shopify and Klaviyo. She's also built an audience of over 19,000 followers on LinkedIn by sharing the good, the bad, and the very real behind-the-scenes reality of freelancing. We talk about how Lizzie moved from scrambling from project to project to building a sustainable roster of long-term clients, why relationships have become one of the most important parts of her business, and how she turns one-off projects into ongoing opportunities. We also dig into LinkedIn, referrals, the rise of AI, and why Lizzie believes people are becoming increasingly tired of generic AI-generated content. And because this is The Productive Freelancer, we get into what her working week actually looks like too: protecting her best writing hours, knowing her capacity, setting boundaries around evenings and weekends, fitting business growth around paying client work, and accepting that sometimes productivity simply means reprioritising.
