My first week as a freelancer is already over, I can’t believe how fast the time went.
My week was basically spent doing research on how to go about being a freelancer, as this is all very new to me. I met with my 1 client this week for our first business lunch and it was great! I can hardly call it a business lunch really seeing as my client is my best friend, and our business lunch was basically talking about what I would be doing for her, and we also worked on designing a logo for her company. So yes, there was work involved, but it was fun and we spent a good part of the afternoon just hanging’ out in general. But at least we got everything we wanted to accomplish done, and that was the whole point.
I’ve registered as a freelancer on some website, which I hope will help in building a clientele. As it is now, I only have the one client, and if I want to start making money, i really need to expand that client list. This is where I am putting my time at the moment…trying to figure out the best ways to get clients.
Thank goodness for the Internet, I don’t know how I could live without it. I am finding all kinds of useful information and with time, I’m sure I’ll be able to really put my name out there and see the clients start rolling in.
