How to Find Freelance Clients
7 Tips to Build a Sustainable Client Network
Whilst working my previous full-time job at the front office of a hotel, someone reached out and asked for simple customizations to her WordPress website.
She was my first freelance client.
I didn’t track how much time I spent on the project, but I remember charging an entire $40 for the work.
Within the next couple of months, I landed my first website design client pitching to someone from Facebook — and built her an entire WordPress website for $400.
I found my next client pitching self-taught tech skills including website customizations, SEO and content writing. I wore the hat as a tech-savvy Virtual Assistant, supporting my clients with writing and design.
Now, I work as a full-time WordPress website designer.
