- Create Diverse Content and Make Yourself Known
You aren't a writer if you aren't writing. You're not a photographer if you're just
buying fancy camera gear. But more than just working on your craft, you can start
a blog, a podcast, or a YouTube channel to help make a name for yourself. Too
many freelancers focus their content on their own industry; create content that
benefits your potential clients.
How much can I make as a freelancer?
This is always the question that ends the conversation when I train people to
become freelancers. One thing I do when students throw this question at me I just
ask them “Are you ready for work?” Then I wait for them to answer me. So ask
yourself this one question before you read further. If the answer is “Yes” then I
know that you are ready to make real riches from becoming a freelancer online.
“According to Payoneer’s data, the average freelancer works 36 hours a week at a
rate of $21 per hour, giving them an annual pretax salary of more than $39,000”.
Most freelancers work as hourlie; meaning they only take per hour Job and for a
client to pay you at least $21/hour you will have to show them you are worth it so
be ready to work your way to the top.
Something you should note down is that all individual freelancing income differs
from person to person. Depends on the kind of Job you choose to do. It freelancing
and so you are not limited to only one Job.
