Ticket to Freelanceshire

We have already entered into a world stage where remote work is contributing to a significant part of our economy. There are countless tools and skills to be learned, where one might surely become overloaded with information on how to become a freelancer.

But very few resources point out the missing ingredient—creating a freelance mindset. And this is the very reason why this book was written. It is packed with numerous bits of advice from my fourteen years of experience as a freelancer. I reveal everything I've learned to help you discern your worth in the marketplace and make you vigilant when it comes to monetizing your passions. I share all the methodologies that have maximized my productivity and profit while keeping me sane and creative.

I've tried my best to compress everything into only 100 pages because I understand that we are all busy people. Yet, I also explain that pursuing a freelance career is something that everyone should take at their own pace. Rushing things leads to mediocre results and hampers long-term success because a successful freelance career is not a sprint but a marathon, moreover, it's a lifestyle.

You will learn to…

Build professional recognition

Because many freelancers focus too much on their work and less on marketing themselves—not a strategy for the long haul.

Find your sweet spot

Because it is plain wrong to be everything for everyone and never focus on the specific projects and clients you want to work.

Learn to talk like a pro

Because the first impression counts. Many freelancers discuss their tools and skills rather than the client's problems.

Write project proposals

Because a well-written proposal sets a smooth collaboration and protects you from unwanted scope creeps or last-minute client pivots.

Make your portfolio shine

Because well-written case studies will attract ever bigger clients and bring you the recognition and authority you deserve.

Learn to measure success

Because measuring the success of your work creates empirical proof that sets the validation to charge more.

Become an authority of your work

Because authority instills trust in your clients, and trust is the currency of your brand.

Learn to charge value, not time

Because charging by the hour has a limit, and it doesn't always equate to the value and monetary impact you create for your client.

Build relationships with your clients

Because that kind of attitude strengthens trust and builds long-term financial gains.

Give more than take

Because a genuine attitude to give rather than take goes a long way. Service to others brings recognition, trust, and monetary rewards.
