I made >$8k in my first month as a no-code freelancer. I made a LOT of mistakes.

Here are my top 5 learnings
1. Stay away from job boards.
Instead, I work with prominent no-code agencies like @minimumssstudio, @LuhhuHQ & @optemized. Better connections, portfolio & clients than job boards. Communicate proactively (& #39;Hey, I& #39;ve seen your message and will respond tomorrow morning& #39;).

2. Don’t lose sight of your dream.
I had success in writing technical content. Before I knew it, I was flooded with writing gigs. I had to remind myself that I quit my job because I wanted to make software, not to write.

3. Don’t forget about important and non-urgent tasks.
When an agency asks me to start another project, I want to jump on it. But after a month of freelancing, I still havent spent any time on my own website or branding.

4. Don& #39;t spend too much time on work.
I used to work 4 days a week because I value work-life balance. Now I’m so busy it slipped back to 5. There will always be more work to do, so schedule your free time.
