Ask HN: How to productize a freelance consulting business?

1 pointsby benrmatthewsover 11 years ago
I've been working freelance for a few years and found good success in attracting and retaining well-paying professional clients and delivering high-quality work in return. But I'd like to scale this work beyond myself and find out how to generate more revenue on an ongoing basis, without being limited by my weekly working hours. What advice would you give? Do you have ideas for products/services that freelancers can "productize" and scale beyond their own working week?

OP here. Thought I'd give more detail. Say I earn $100/hr, working a 40hr week, I am limited to earning $4,000 a week (before tax and assuming I work a full week at 8 hours a day). I also get unique insight into my clients' problems, which are often common across clients. How can I turn this into stable, repeatable business that scales beyond by weekly potential earnings?
