Do you hate office work and staying in one place all day, working? Freelance is the solution. Life of a freelancer is pretty much flexible. You’re the boss of your own job and you work whenever and wherever you want. Millions of people around the world prefer freelancing over working in an office. Do you want to join the club of Freelancers? Here are some tips for beginner freelancers:

1-  Create a profile on a freelance directory. Hubstaff Talent is a free website for both freelancers and businesses. Once a freelancer creates their profile, businesses can reach out to them directly. Hubstaff Talent also has a remote job board where freelancers can search through hundreds of remote positions. It is actively used by over 8,000 agencies, freelancers, website owners and virtual teams all over the world.
A profile on a freelance directory is a great place to start and it’s a good way to get your name out there and make connections. Other good freelance websites include AngelList and FlexJobs.

2- Update your resume. Update your resume and make sure it’s current. Consider hiring a professional resume writer to create a unique and professional resume that will catch the attention of potential employers.

3- Reach out to existing contacts. Contact old co-workers, employers, friends, and family and let them know you are becoming a freelancer. Even if they don’t need you for any work they might come across someone who does and they can pass along your information.

4- Start a blog or personal website. If you don’t have much experience a blog or website is a great way to show off your skills and let potential employers see your ability.

5- Try to avoid the common pitfalls that trip freelancers up during their first few years on the job. From burning your time over working all day and all night, getting stuck at with low rates, to fall into the trap of isolation. Try to manage and make everything under control especially when you’re a beginner freelancer.

These are some of the tips that you need to know as a freelancer. Would you like to join the club? Tell us in a comment! 🙂
