Hey Webflailers - it’s Jack.
I'm realising more and more the power of relationships as a Webflower.
Here's my bizarre metaphor:
Knowing a strategic relationship is a bit like knowing the bouncer on the door to get in to the nightclub 💃
You don't want to know everyone in the queue outside to get in to the nightclub - you want to know the person that unlocks the door.
If he/she says are good to go, that bouncer means you have a great night, boogie with your mates and potentially meet the love of your life... If not, it's a donor kebab and the bus back to watch the office in bed.
What I mean is a person that introduces you to clients is the key to you having a good time as a Webflower - they're the bouncer. So be helpful to them without being asked to - give before you can receive. Plant the seeds and over time, a relationship will grow.
Today:
- Ep 92 | How to be a freelace Webflow bae like Webbae | with Keegan Leary
- 3 Inspo sites
- 3 Webflow jobs

Let the litmus see the test.
Buenos dias to stress free freelancing with Bonsai 🚀
Yeh, that's right.
I said it - freelancing is more stressful than realising you were meant to answer all the exam questions rather than just the one that you answered...
But, there's some good news ahoy for you pepper.
That's where Bonsai came in.
Make and send contracts, track your time and track your cashflow with Bonsai.
I handle Webflail sponsorships, freelance clients and Macu agency clients all through Bonsai and it's all bonny all the time.
Here's why:
- Simplify client billing and track profitability: Put billing on autopilot with recurring payments and monitor your revenue across projects and clients.
- Contracts that protect you: If client projects go wrong, it's important to have a contract in place that both parties have signed to ensure there is a clear agreement in place
- Timetracking to ensure transparency: Track the time you work, add notes and variable hourly rates. Add them to an invoice to create a timesheet that your client can see
Ep 92 | How to be a freelace Webflow bae like Webbae | with Keegan Leary
Today, my guest is Keegan Leary.
Keegan Leary, otherwise known as Webbae, is somewhat of a legend in the Webflow community.
After having served 10 years in the Navy as a submarine officer, he graduated from coding bootcamp (Hack Reactor)
He then went on to Upwork and was top ranked (100% Job Success score, 20+ ratings, only 5-star ratings)
He then I’m diving headfirst into becoming a better programmer by teaching others on my YouTube channel and offering tools and apps (7.55k)
Since then, he's launched:
Webflow 201 course → Patreon → Clip Bae → Asset Bae
When he’s not on the tools, you may find running up hills trail running and backpacking with his wife Heather. For fun.
He’s at the peak? Or is here? And did he stumble on his path to success?
The fails we’ll talk about in the episode are:
1) Almost sinking a sub in port...
2) Failures with restore from backup
3) Pricing his 201 course...
