Freelancing Tips:
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔹" title="Kleine blaue Raute" aria-label="Emoji: Kleine blaue Raute">Define your goals for freelancing
Know your goals for starting your freelance business.
So if you start freelancing part time or on the side, you give yourself time to create the crucial relationships you’d need to make a full-time living freelancing.
Know your goals for starting your freelance business.
So if you start freelancing part time or on the side, you give yourself time to create the crucial relationships you’d need to make a full-time living freelancing.
Whether you’re set to become a freelancer full time or on the side, your business will be built around the unique skills you have to offer. Those skills are your greatest asset.
Do a skills assessment and write your top 10.
Identifying the different skills you’ve built over the years that other people may not have and want to pay YOU to use.
Start with a simple spreadsheet. In the first column, start listing each individual skill you can think of.
Start with a simple spreadsheet. In the first column, start listing each individual skill you can think of.
It’ll be easiest to start with all of the skills that you’ve already been paid to leverage. It doesn’t matter if the job was full time or part time, as long as you were being paid.
If an employer was willing to pay you to do that work, chances are that you’re pretty good at it!

Once you have a list of all the skills you’ve been paid to use, taught yourself, now we can start to narrow down that list. First, prioritize (deprioritize when necessary) the list by which skills you WANT to get paid for the most.

You can create a new column in your spreadsheet and rank them in order, starting with number one. It’s good to be aspirational here. If it were up to you (and it is), what would you want to be paid to do each and every day? Next, you want to do a little bit of research.
E.g. customer service, graphic design, workshop facilitation, digital marketing, photography, writing.
Think about your last several jobs, volunteer experience, internship, school projects, social media campaigns and community work: what were you doing?E.g. customer service, graphic design, workshop facilitation, digital marketing, photography, writing." title="https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔸" title="Kleine orangene Raute" aria-label="Emoji: Kleine orangene Raute">Think about your last several jobs, volunteer experience, internship, school projects, social media campaigns and community work: what were you doing?E.g. customer service, graphic design, workshop facilitation, digital marketing, photography, writing." class="img-responsive" style="max-width:100%;"/>
If those roles required creativity or use of a specific software, it’s even more likely that someone would be willing to pay YOU rather than take the time to learn that skill themselves.
Some common software would be Adobe Photoshop, Figma, Sketch, MS PowerPoint & Excel, etc.

When you’re thinking about your previous jobs, don’t limit yourself to the job description or main responsibilities. In most jobs, people find themselves doing things that weren’t originally in their job description.
E.g, if you were responsible for running a company’s social media accounts, you probably picked up some writing skills too.
So instead of only thinking about your social media skills, you may also be suited for copywriting or marketing work. Add every specific skill to the list.

Your skills aren’t limited to just what you’ve been paid to do. Go beyond the things you’ve already gotten paid for to things you’ve taught yourself, or even your subskill.

When it comes to freelancing, having competition is a good thing to make you keep upskilling.
Look through sites like Upwork, Upwork, Glassdoor, LinkedIn or Fiverr and search for freelancers using the top five skills you’ve identified.
Once you’ve identified the skills that will be the most profitable and enjoyable for you, it’s time to think about who is going to pay you to use them.
Do an empathy map in your freelancing career to help you better understand your customers.

Your goal is find a specific, significant challenge that people are ALREADY facing and then become an expert at helping them overcome that challenge. And as long as there are people wanting to solve that problem, there will be a lucrative demand for your services.
Your portfolio and testimonials are two of the most important tools you’ll have for getting online writing jobs. Create a few samples for the kind of writing work you want to do, then use them to land more work. Always ask your clients for a testimonial!
You’re going to have to pitch a lot, no matter which freelance platforms you use. Set a goal to send project bids or proposals.
Freelancing doesn& #39;t end on online marketplaces. You can also transition into owning your own small business if you can/want.
Good luck in your career!
