How to freelance
One of the many ways you can make money off your technical skills is to branch off on your own and freelance. Freelancing and running your own business can be a very rewarding and fulfilling life with exciting projects and great clients but there are lots of things to learn. In this project we are going to look at how you can get started, where you can find clients, what you should be charging, and how to manage your first project.
Starting a Freelance Career
Starting your freelance career can be a daunting task with plenty of uncertainty. While technical skills are certainly required to freelance, understanding what is involved will help ease the transition. In this stage, we’re going to go over the pros and cons of freelancing, what to expect of yourself and how you can get started.
Finding Your First Project
For first time freelancers, finding that initial job can be both an emotional and financial mountain to climb. Don’t worry, there’s always work to be found and in this stage we’re going to cover how you can find your first job, and how to approach a project once you’ve found a client.
Pricing and Project Proposals
Convincing a client to hire you for a project means delivering a proper project proposal and quote. In this stage we go over how you can put together a good proposal and quote. We also answer one of the most common freelance questions: What should you charge for your work?
