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.

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.

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.

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.
Create your own video ads, training videos, tutorials, courses, shows - it's now all possible with just a smartphone and free Social Media accounts.
