pFreelancing can be fun and exciting, especially when you#8217;re first getting started./p
pYou have a new income stream, a new amount of freedom and control, and if feels like you#8217;re taking charge of your skills and talents./p
pOf course, those are just a pipe dreams if you can#8217;t a href="http://freelanceswitch.com/blog/explore/finding-clients-jobs/"find a client/a./p
pSo how do you get started? How do you actually go about finding that first client? I don#8217;t have all the answers, but here are a few ideas for kick-starting your freelance career.span id="more-20724"/span/p
h21. Work for your friends and family./h2
pWhile I don#8217;t like the idea of continually selling your services to friends and family, the truth is that this is a great way to get started./p
pFor example, a social media consultant might get their start by working for their uncle#8217;s business. A wedding invitation creator might start by creating cards for their cousin#8217;s wedding./p
pWhatever your task may be, jobs for friends and family are usually easy to find and mdash;�even if they aren#8217;t paying as well as you would like mdash; they can be a good way to build your portfolio when you don#8217;t have one./p
h22. Ask for referrals./h2
pIf you want to get started as a freelancer, then you need to spread the word. Let people know what you#8217;re up to and ask them if they know anyone who might need what you#8217;re offering./p
blockquote class="pullquote"pA helpful hint: when you ask for referrals, make sure to use the right language. Instead of saying what you do, describe the problem that the client faces./p/blockquote
pAlmost every freelancer I know got their start by working with people they already knew or #8220;friends of friends.#8221; It#8217;s up to you to get the word out, but people are usually willing to help you get started./p
pemA helpful hint: when you ask for referrals, make sure to use the right language. Instead of saying what you do, describe the problem that the client faces./em/p
pFor example, web designers won#8217;t get much work if they say, #8220;I#8217;m a freelance designer. I do HTML, CSS, some PHP, and Photoshop.#8221; /p
pBut you#8217;ll see much better results if you say, #8220;I help people who are frustrated with the way their website looks. If you hear anyone talking about their site, feel free to send them my way.#8221;/p
pLet people know who you help, so they can put you in touch with the right person. Leave the technical jargon at home./p
h23. Partner with someone who already has access to your target market./h2
pIf you#8217;re just starting out and nobody knows your name, don#8217;t worry! You can easily connect with your target market by partnering with a relevant group./p
pYou don#8217;t have to be an influencer, you just need to connect with one./p
pWant to start a freelance dog walking business? Partner with the local pet store owner. You can recommend their leashes and dog food to your clients, and they can recommend your services to their customers./p
pWant to teach guitar on the side? Partner with the local music shop. You can recommend their strings and picks to your clients, and they can put your business cards and a flyer by their cash register./p
pWant to become a freelance writer? Partner with a graphic designer who designs brochures, reports, and other documents. They can suggest your writing services to clients who aren#8217;t comfortable with their writing skills and you can pay the designer a small referral fee each time they send business your way./p
h24. Go to live conferences, trade shows, and events./h2
blockquote class="pullquote"pIf you show up at relevant events and meet people live, then you#8217;re bound to start having success./p/blockquote
pThere is something about meeting people in person that just makes you friends. Once you#8217;ve spent time with someone face to face, you#8217;re buddies./p
pIf you show up at relevant events and meet people live, then you#8217;re bound to start having success./p
pThat said, don#8217;t walk around and shove your business card in everyone#8217;s face. Take your time, have a real conversation, and when the other person asks what you do just naturally talk about your services. If you want, you can even throw in at the end, #8220;If you know anyone looking for that, just let me know.#8221;/p
h25. Write about your topic./h2
pWe often see people who write about a certain topic as being an expert./p
pIf you start a blog and begin writing about your freelance topic consistently, then you#8217;ll gradually develop an audience and respect within your industry. (You#8217;ll have to promote the site as well, but that#8217;s a story for a different article.)/p
pIt takes a little longer to build, but there are plenty of freelancers who have a steady stream of business just from their online audience./p
pemAnother tip: Make it easy for your readers to pay you. Set up a #8220;Services#8221; page or a #8220;Hire Me#8221; page and allow people to click-through and pay you right then and there./em/p
h3Get Out There/h3
pAnd there you have it. Five solid ways of getting your first freelance client./p
pNow, get out there and start pulling in some cash. It#8217;s not as hard as you might think./p

And then the search engines came crawling, indexing and sorting out�pages. As the web expanded with more users and businesses putting up websites, search engines [...]

Seven Tips for the Beginning Freelance Writer

pa href="http://freelanceswitch.com/blog/explore/getting-started-as-a-freelancer/"Starting out as a freelance writer/a is not as easy as it appears. Learning how to become a freelance writer requires business considerations, not just writing chops./p
pBeyond getting out there and securing contracts, you need to be self-motivated and organized. This is a difficult transition, especially if you don?t have colleagues or friends who have been in the field and can help you along./p
pIf you?re just starting out and hoping to make your livelihood writing, take a look at the seven tips below. Keep in mind that these are geared toward beginners who are pursuing freelance writing as a full-time job?not for those who simply do a little extra writing on nights and weekends.span id="more-20311"/span /p
h21. Find A Space to Call Your Own/h2
pAlthough you may think that all freelance writers spend their days on the couch in front of the TV, you will quickly discover that motivation is tied to physical surroundings. It is of utmost importance that you have a space set aside where work happens?not a space where loafing happens, with a bit of work sprinkled in here and there. /p
pSome freelance writers are fortunate enough to have space to build a home office where it?s easier to focus and feel accountable. If this isn?t an option for you, search for a suitable place near your home. /p
pSome libraries, especially if you live in a larger urban area, provide ample room and an atmosphere made for focusing. Other options are community centers, coffee shops, and even public parks (if the weather obliges). /p
pKeep in mind that if you set up in a coffee shop you?ll need to give it your business; buy something at least every two hours, if not every hour. If you can?t afford to do this, you shouldn?t set up in a coffee shop?it?s as simple as that./p
h22. Develop a Regular Schedule/h2
pSimilar to creating your work space, you?ll need to create your daily freelance schedule. Some writers like to work in time blocks?say, wake up and work for 3 hours; take a 2 hour break for exercise and errands; come back and work another 3 hours; eat dinner and have nightly activities; then, get in 2 more hours of work before bed. Others like to be more regimented, and treat their freelancing as a full-time, 8-to-5 affair. /p
pObviously, your time schedules and strategies can vary depending on what kind of work you?re doing. What?s important to remember is that you need to set up a system that holds you accountable every day (even if your schedule holds you accountable to take a day off!)./p
h23. Remember Self-Employment Taxes/h2
pWhile your dollar-per-hour wage may seem high, you have to remember that being a freelance writer means you will need to pay quarterly self-employment taxes. You will be held accountable for your taxes. Federal self-employment tax rates are higher than tax rates for W2 workers./p
pThis means, beyond having to remember to send a check to the government every quarter, you will need to save a substantial amount of money from your paychecks. One easy thing to do is simply save the same percentage from every check you get. The specific amount is between you and your accountant, but for many it?s wise to save at least one-quarter of your earnings for tax purposes./p
h24. Buy Yourself the Things You Need/h2
pHowever much you should think about saving, you should also be practical about spending. Acknowledging what equipment and tools you need is crucial to your success as a freelance writer. Make sure you have a fast, working computer. Typically, freelance writers use laptops so they can work at various sites./p
pAdditionally, many freelance writing jobs are last-minute?someone wants a press release edited, a company?s new website needs further unforeseen content, etc. Investing in a Smartphone is a good option so that you may pursue every freelance opportunity available to you./p
h25. Get to Know Others in Your Field/h2
pNetworking is obviously a big part of being self-employed. You need people in your field to recognize your name and respect your work. But networking shouldn?t be limited to just other writers./p
pGraphic designers are great people to buddy up with?if you recommend them to your employers, they can recommend you to theirs. Additionally, having experience working with designers can make you a shoo-in for future projects. Employers believe there is a greater chance of receiving a cohesive, well-constructed project, with you involved./p
h26. Update Your Invoices in Real Time/h2
pIt#8217;s important to accurately log your time as a freelance writer. Getting behind leads to mistakes, which can lose you money. /p
pEven if you spend ten minutes researching for an article in-between other projects, that is ten minutes of time you should bill for. If you have a Smartphone, there are even apps available to help you log your time and create invoices on-the-go. /p
h27. Look at It One More Time/h2
pLastly, when you send final content to your employer, you have to be absolutely certain that your work does not contain errors. You don?t need to be obsessive or neurotic, but you do need to be vigilant about editing; a rough draft is good, but three to five rough drafts are better. /p
pSet up a rule of thumb. For instance: never send anything to an employer without giving it three final looks. Your polished work will help you gain trust, and help you become a better writer. /p

pa href="http://freelanceswitch.com/blog/explore/getting-started-as-a-freelancer/"Starting out as a freelance writer/a is not as easy as it appears. Learning how to become a freelance writer requires business considerations, not just writing chops./p
pBeyond getting out there and securing contracts, you need to be self-motivated and organized. This is a difficult transition, especially if you don?t have colleagues or friends who have been in the field and can help you along./p
pIf you?re just starting out and hoping to make your livelihood writing, take a look at the seven tips below. Keep in mind that these are geared toward beginners who are pursuing freelance writing as a full-time job?not for those who simply do a little extra writing on nights and weekends.span id="more-20311"/span /p
h21. Find A Space to Call Your Own/h2
pAlthough you may think that all freelance writers spend their days on the couch in front of the TV, you will quickly discover that motivation is tied to physical surroundings. It is of utmost importance that you have a space set aside where work happens?not a space where loafing happens, with a bit of work sprinkled in here and there. /p
pSome freelance writers are fortunate enough to have space to build a home office where it?s easier to focus and feel accountable. If this isn?t an option for you, search for a suitable place near your home. /p
pSome libraries, especially if you live in a larger urban area, provide ample room and an atmosphere made for focusing. Other options are community centers, coffee shops, and even public parks (if the weather obliges). /p
pKeep in mind that if you set up in a coffee shop you?ll need to give it your business; buy something at least every two hours, if not every hour. If you can?t afford to do this, you shouldn?t set up in a coffee shop?it?s as simple as that./p
h22. Develop a Regular Schedule/h2
pSimilar to creating your work space, you?ll need to create your daily freelance schedule. Some writers like to work in time blocks?say, wake up and work for 3 hours; take a 2 hour break for exercise and errands; come back and work another 3 hours; eat dinner and have nightly activities; then, get in 2 more hours of work before bed. Others like to be more regimented, and treat their freelancing as a full-time, 8-to-5 affair. /p
pObviously, your time schedules and strategies can vary depending on what kind of work you?re doing. What?s important to remember is that you need to set up a system that holds you accountable every day (even if your schedule holds you accountable to take a day off!)./p
h23. Remember Self-Employment Taxes/h2
pWhile your dollar-per-hour wage may seem high, you have to remember that being a freelance writer means you will need to pay quarterly self-employment taxes. You will be held accountable for your taxes. Federal self-employment tax rates are higher than tax rates for W2 workers./p
pThis means, beyond having to remember to send a check to the government every quarter, you will need to save a substantial amount of money from your paychecks. One easy thing to do is simply save the same percentage from every check you get. The specific amount is between you and your accountant, but for many it?s wise to save at least one-quarter of your earnings for tax purposes./p
h24. Buy Yourself the Things You Need/h2
pHowever much you should think about saving, you should also be practical about spending. Acknowledging what equipment and tools you need is crucial to your success as a freelance writer. Make sure you have a fast, working computer. Typically, freelance writers use laptops so they can work at various sites./p
pAdditionally, many freelance writing jobs are last-minute?someone wants a press release edited, a company?s new website needs further unforeseen content, etc. Investing in a Smartphone is a good option so that you may pursue every freelance opportunity available to you./p
h25. Get to Know Others in Your Field/h2
pNetworking is obviously a big part of being self-employed. You need people in your field to recognize your name and respect your work. But networking shouldn?t be limited to just other writers./p
pGraphic designers are great people to buddy up with?if you recommend them to your employers, they can recommend you to theirs. Additionally, having experience working with designers can make you a shoo-in for future projects. Employers believe there is a greater chance of receiving a cohesive, well-constructed project, with you involved./p
h26. Update Your Invoices in Real Time/h2
pIt#8217;s important to accurately log your time as a freelance writer. Getting behind leads to mistakes, which can lose you money. /p
pEven if you spend ten minutes researching for an article in-between other projects, that is ten minutes of time you should bill for. If you have a Smartphone, there are even apps available to help you log your time and create invoices on-the-go. /p
h27. Look at It One More Time/h2
pLastly, when you send final content to your employer, you have to be absolutely certain that your work does not contain errors. You don?t need to be obsessive or neurotic, but you do need to be vigilant about editing; a rough draft is good, but three to five rough drafts are better. /p
pSet up a rule of thumb. For instance: never send anything to an employer without giving it three final looks. Your polished work will help you gain trust, and help you become a better writer. /p

Some writers like to work in time blocks?say, wake up and work for 3 hours; take a 2 hour break for exercise and errands; come back and work another 3 hours; eat dinner and have nightly activities; then, get in 2 more hours of work before bed. Others like to be more regimented, and treat their freelancing as a full-time, 8-to-5 affair. /p
pObviously, your time schedules and strategies can vary depending on what kind of work you?re doing. What?s important to remember is that you need to set up a system that holds you accountable every day (even if your schedule holds you accountable to take a day off!)./p
h23. Remember Self-Employment Taxes/h2
pWhile your dollar-per-hour wage may seem high, you have to remember that being a freelance writer means you will need to pay quarterly self-employment taxes. You will be held accountable for your taxes. Federal self-employment tax rates are higher than tax rates for W2 workers./p
pThis means, beyond having to remember to send a check to the government every quarter, you will need to save a substantial amount of money from your paychecks. One easy thing to do is simply save the same percentage from every check you get. The specific amount is between you and your accountant, but for many it?s wise to save at least one-quarter of your earnings for tax purposes./p
h24. Buy Yourself the Things You Need/h2
pHowever much you should think about saving, you should also be practical about spending. Acknowledging what equipment and tools you need is crucial to your success as a freelance writer. Make sure you have a fast, working computer. Typically, freelance writers use laptops so they can work at various sites./p
pAdditionally, many freelance writing jobs are last-minute?someone wants a press release edited, a company?s new website needs further unforeseen content, etc. Investing in a Smartphone is a good option so that you may pursue every freelance opportunity available to you./p
h25. Get to Know Others in Your Field/h2
pNetworking is obviously a big part of being self-employed. You need people in your field to recognize your name and respect your work. But networking shouldn?t be limited to just other writers./p
pGraphic designers are great people to buddy up with?if you recommend them to your employers, they can recommend you to theirs. Additionally, having experience working with designers can make you a shoo-in for future projects. Employers believe there is a greater chance of receiving a cohesive, well-constructed project, with you involved./p
h26. Update Your Invoices in Real Time/h2
pIt#8217;s important to accurately log your time as a freelance writer. Getting behind leads to mistakes, which can lose you money. /p
pEven if you spend ten minutes researching for an article in-between other projects, that is ten minutes of time you should bill for. If you have a Smartphone, there are even apps available to help you log your time and create invoices on-the-go. /p
h27. Look at It One More Time/h2
pLastly, when you send final content to your employer, you have to be absolutely certain that your work does not contain errors. You don?t need to be obsessive or neurotic, but you do need to be vigilant about editing; a rough draft is good, but three to five rough drafts are better. /p
pSet up a rule of thumb. For instance: never send anything to an employer without giving it three final looks. Your polished work will help you gain trust, and help you become a better writer. /p
