Welcome to FreedomLab
Hi, I'm Marie Watkins, creator of FreedomLab!
Imagine no longer pulling your hair out trying to decide which tools to use in your online business? No more wasting money on software & online programs full of easy-peasy promises, only to have to ditch them because they no longer work and aren't supported. Wouldn't that just make your life so much simpler?
Well that's why I'm here!
You see, I'm committed to saving you time, effort and frustration in your search for the tools & systems that can optimize your digital business operations and grow your customer base as an online solopreneur so you can enjoy more time doing what matters most to you.
FreedomLab is where you’ll find sifted sorted solid content, training, software & tools researched, evaluated, and ready to use.
FreedomLab is dedicated to everyone who is on the path to "Going From 9-to-5 To Earning Online" and especially Gen-Xers and Boomers willing to roll up their sleeves and put a lifetime of experience to good use building their own business on the Web.
Don't think you're not savvy enough to pivot and get your "Plan B" up and running online. We are at a historic time where a seismic shift is changing how we work and live, and the tools and opportunities to successfully make that shift have never been greater.
Don't underestimate what you know either! You've got a wealth of knowledge that can benefit an audience searching for what you know, what you can teach them and how you can help them improve their lives.
So I'm here to help you because, as you know, finding the "real deal" online can take days & months of trial and error. What I mean by that is I'm putting my years of experience in business and tech to find you the tools that will work for you so you can just "plug & play" them into your online business.

The Greatest Communication Tool Of The Decade
Video is, without a single doubt, the greatest communication tool of the decade.
Everyone can be a broadcaster these days. And it costs nothing or close to nothing to do it.
Shoot a video on your phone and have it up on Social Media in minutes, available to potentially millions of viewers.
Let that sink in for a minute...
A mere 20 years ago, you needed a production studio and TV station including all the real estate, equipment, satellite hookups, personnel, licensing, etc. and ongoing expenses that went with that. That's millions of dollars in costs.
