In today's world with the amount of increase in
technology, ways to earn money has also advanced. In primitive period there use
to be one a way or two to earn their bread. But now things has changed pretty
fast. People are becoming smarter day by day and hence many ways are been
discovered to earn more money.
One of the way of earning money or rather I would say
adding to your primary income is work from home option can also be referred as
freelancing. In today's era one can work from home not just in limited area but
can sell their talent in more diversify way. People who are working in their
full time job of 9 to 6 are ready to take up the challenge and work from home
in their spare time, they demonstrate their talent on the web and get the
projects from the clients.
Now the question is you have got the talent, skills,
ability and spare time but how can you get freelancer work?
Here are
the 5 quick tips about freelancing:
Don't put
all your eggs in one basket
As putting all your eggs in one basket may or may not
save them to get damage in any event of unknown circumstances. having said so,
you should demonstrate your talent on not just one marketplace website but
should post on the all sites (famous or not so famous) which are available in
the market. For instance: One should post their talent on sites like
www.freelancer.com, www.guru.com, www.gicree.com (global freelance job platform), www.odesk.com and the list
goes on and on.
Client
should be treated with more importance
Its needless to say here, about treating the client
with utmost importance. Remember one thing if you are giving importance to your
client he will in future will work with you again or maybe he can be a good
referral for you.
Be
Creative
You have to beat the competition think out of the box.
There are many professionals who are offering their freelancing services, you
have to be different and more creative when marketing, delivering the project.
There is a famous saying "Packaging is more important than product",
but by just giving attractive packing doesn't mean your work is done, you
should always give the quality product to your client in order to not loose him
and get more project and referrals from him.
Save for
rainy days
Even though your freelancing business may be running
perfectly well and you are gaining more and more projects, there can and
probably will come a bad month or two in which you have to strive. Being a
freelancer is being vulnerable to changes in the market. My advice here would
be keep saving from your income every month. As you won't regret in your bad
times.
Remember
to breathe
Did I just said breathe? yes! Do not forget your
friends and family when working as a freelancer. You should know how to
distribute your time wisely, as someone rightly said: When at work do it
religiously, but when at party forget your work! Take out some time for your
hobbies, exercise, yoga, and other social work. This will help you in cooling
down your stress level and will always boost your enthusiasm level on top.
