How to Start Freelancing? ✨

I have been a freelancer for the past three years! There are so many pros and cons, but I love it! Here are my top tips for starting a freelance career in 2024…

Find a Niche

You need to find a service to “sell” to businesses or individuals. You can be a bookkeeper, video editor, social media manager, graphic designer, blog writer, resume writer, data entry specialist, and so much more.

Find a Platform

You need to find a way to meet clients. This can be through social media, your professional network, and freelancer platforms, such as Upwork, Fiverr, Pangea, and more.

Find a Client

If you use a freelancer platform, you need to build a portfolio. This is how you can find clients. Build a portfolio on the platform, Canva website, or Wix - for cheap or free! Then, apply to jobs.

Build a Business

Once you land clients, keep track of your expenses and revenue. You will need to pay taxes on your income! Hire a bookkeeper or accountant to ease your mind on the financial side of being a business owner.
