What if freelancing came with a break room, water cooler, and supportive colleagues?
Freelancing is hard.
Get Focused AF makes it easier.
Get a community of experts at your fingertips to answer questions, support you through challenges, and celebrate your success like it’s their own when you join Get FocusedAF, a FREE community for freelancers and solopreneurs
“I don’t know what I’m doing.”
Every freelancer at least once
Every freelancer has had this thought. And, it’s often followed at some point by, “I don’t know what to do next.”
Stay in the game long enough and you inevitably encounter a tough client, a project that goes off the rails, or a day when working on your own business makes you question all your life choices.
Even worse–when you’re alone in these hard moments, it’s easy to spiral into full-blown panic mode.
That’s why having a community where you can show up as yourself and get quick feedback to your questions is key to building a business you genuinely feel excited to work in every day.
If that’s something you want, I’m excited to introduce you to Get FocusedAF!

"I raised my prices significantly"
I wouldn’t be where I am in my business today without Betsy and Get FocusedAF.
In 2021, I started sharing the mindfulness practices I rely on not just to support my mental health, but to grow my business sustainably. The community’s response was so encouraging that I began weaving mindfulness into my copywriting process and creating offers that helped my launch clients stay grounded during their launches.
That shift changed everything.
My business took on a new shape, one that feels like a true extension of who I am. I raised my prices significantly and now feel genuinely excited every time I sit down to work.

"Join Get FocusedAF to create the thriving business you want"
Get FocusedAF helped me realize that I could design my business around my life and my needs. And to design my business around the clients I love working with, what they actually need (including space for them to be busy and imperfect just as much as I am), and not some rigid version of a money making package designed to squeeze every dollar out of people.
Get FocusedAF helped me figure out that I could create a thriving business I love the way I wanted. Not by telling me to do that, but by allowing me space to flail, vent, talk it out, and just be my weird self.

"Get FocusedAF is a community where you can ask for help for things you don't know and give help for the things you do know"
Of course, Get FocusedAF is where I go to make sure I am hitting my goals and creating sustainability practices so that I am running my business (instead of my business running me!).
But it’s more than that. It’s also my water cooler, my reality check, and my fount of knowledge. It’s where I go to get support and advice on a tough business situation and where I can share my wins and silly experiences with a group who will laugh along with me.
It’s like talking to a friend from childhood, who always knows which sibling you mean because they know you so well. Get FocusedAF is truly a community where you can be yourself and ask for help for things you don’t know and give help for the things you do know.

"After too many years of going it alone... my business was transformed"
I’m Betsy Muse, founder of Rocket Fuel Strategy, Get Focused AF, and the Lead Liftoff Summit.
I know how finding the right accountability partners has helped me make scary (and exciting) moves in my business.
And I know how the accountability programs I started in both Copyhackers’ communities – 10x Freelance Copywriter and Copy School – have helped hundreds of entrepreneurs and copywriters over the past two and a half years.
That’s why I started Get FocusedAF in 2020–so freelancers and entrepreneurs have a place to show up as their authentic selves and get the support they need to build the businesses they want.
"Betsy sets the tone with her leadership, generosity, and support"
Focused AF is where I go when I have weighed my options to solve a problem in my business, and I need a trusted outside opinion. It can be with a tough client, an offer, a piece of copy, or you-name-it.
Betsy Muse sets the tone with her leadership, generosity, and support. She, and all the other members, also don’t hesitate to share tough love when needed–and let’s be honest–we all need to be reminded to put on our big girl pants sometimes.
I highly recommend the Get Focused AF because when it comes to virtual group support, it’s the best.

"I've felt more like a person in Betsy's group than anywhere else"
I’ve felt more like a person in Betsy’s group than anywhere else. Too often, I’ve felt like a money sign…or placeholder…or contributing group member. Here I’ve found friendship and a place to be authentic.
Most importantly they’ve been there when biz stuff has hit the fan…or I’ve needed a quick response. They’ve got you covered if you’re not quite sure what to say or do in any given situation!

"Join a powerhouse of copywriters and business owners so you're never alone"
I wouldn’t be without the Get Focused AF community. It’s a real powerhouse of female copywriters and business owners, as well as being a safe, non-threatening space to share authentically and honestly about your business.
Betsy’s daily check-in’s give some cadence to the week, and whatever challenges or opportunities are on the table it’s great to know someone else has likely been there, and can offer a choice word, inspiring idea or pick-me-up. With GFAF you know you are never alone.

"Vent, get advice, and celebrate victories with colleagues who're there for you every step of the way"
Get Focused AF has been the place I’ve turned to again and again to vent, get advice, and celebrate victories. That last piece is critical, some people struggle celebrating the success of others and here, even if it’s landing the biggest client of your career, there’s nothing but true support.
And when things go south, the people here are the ones who’ve probably experienced the same downturn and will help you see what the next step is.

"I can ask the group just about anything and get a response"
I feel seen in this group. I’m on the autistic spectrum, so I often feel misunderstood and out of place, but in Get Focused AF, I feel I’m part of everything.
I can ask the group just about anything and get a response, and I’ve had help with all sorts of things relating to my business. It’s a great place to help solve problems and talk things out.

"The combo of expertise AND kindness in Get FocusedAF is not only rare to find, but unheard of for a group that's free"
What makes Get FocusedAF stand out from other groups is the relationships I’ve built with other members Betsy’s brought in over time.
From a business perspective, it’s so valuable to have access to people with complementary specialities (like an SEO expert and a content strategist, among others) for quick questions. From a human perspective, the comfort of working virtually next to people who all like each other and consistently show up for each other is amazing.
I’ve been in a handful of business groups and the combo of expertise AND kindness in Get FocusedAF is not only rare to find, but unheard of for a group that’s free.
